Synthesis of β‐ 3 H‐mitotane for use in a rapid assay for mitotane metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
A 3 H + ‐release method has been developed for the assay of β‐hydroxylation of the adrenolytic drug mitotane. β‐ 3 H‐mitotane was synthesized by the reduction of 1‐(2‐chlorophenyl)‐1‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐2,2,2‐trichloroethane by an aluminium‐Hg 2 Cl 2 ...
