Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de synthèse d'analogues d'oestrogènes marqués par 13C. Ledit procédé consiste de préférence à se munir d'un intermédiaire A ou B ou d'un mélange de A et B. Selon l'invention, un atome de 13C est situé dans une ou plusieurs des positions 1, 2, 3 ou 4, et R est un groupe alcane, alcène, alcyne ou aryl éventuellement substitué, R étant de préférence -CH2Ph. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, un composé intermédiaire préféré est 13C-résorcinol.
