Fluorination of an arylboronic ester using [18F]selectfluor bis(triflate): Application to 6-[18F]fluoro-l-DOPA
The Ag-mediated electrophilic [18F]fluorination of an arylboronic ester is reported. This new radiochemical transformation uses [ 18F]selectfluor bis(triflate) in acetone. The process gave 6-[ 18F]fluoro-l-DOPA with a RCY of 19 ± 12% and a specific activity of 2.6 ± 0.3 GBq μmol-1. © 2013 The Royal...
