The radiosynthesis of <em>cis</em>-[<sup>11</sup>C]DDPI was performed by <em>N</em>-methylation of <em>cis-N</em>-methyl-3-(2′,4′-dichlorophenyl)-indanamine with [<sup>11</sup>C]iodomethane.

Following pre-injection of 1 mg/kg of paroxetine, a high affinity 5-HT uptake blocker, the binding of <em>cis</em>-[<sup>11</sup>C]DDPI in the olfactory tubercles, hypothalamus and frontal cortex was decreased by 23, 25 and 16%; this corresponds to 73, 82 and 59% of the specific binding in these regions.
