How to create named autoresetevent in C#?

I need to synchronize two applications by using a named event. But neither AutoResetEvent nor ManualResetEvent contains constructor with a name for event (only initial state). I can open existing named event through static method OpenExisting in AutoResetEvent or ManualResetEvent class, but can't create It! I don't want to use native WinAPI CreateEvent function for It, unless I know precisely of not existing of other ways.
