Abstract

A practical, rapid, and highly regioselective Cu-catalyzed radiofluorination of (mesityl)(aryl)iodonium salts is described. This protocol utilizes [18F]KF to access 18F-labeled electron-rich, -neutral, and -deficient aryl fluorides under a single set of mild conditions. This methodology is applied to the synthesis of protected versions of two important radiotracers: 4-[18F]fluorophenylalanine and 6-[ 18F]fluoroDOPA. © 2014 American Chemical Society.
