A general copper-mediated nucleophilic 18F fluorination of arenes

Molecules labeled with fluorine-18 are used as radiotracers for positron emission tomography. An important challenge is the labeling of arenes not amenable to aromatic nucleophilic substitution (SNAr) with [ 18F]F-. In the ideal case, the 18F fluorination of these substrates would be performed throu...
