Abstract
A 2-phenyl-3-difluoromethoxy-pyridinyl moiety features in potent phosphodiesterase 4D inhibitors that are considered to be candidate radiotracers for positron emission tomography if they are labeled with fluorine-18. Fluorine-18 could be installed as desired at the 3'-phenyl position with acridinium-mediated photoredox radiodeoxyfluorination in homologues bearing variously substituted 3'-aryloxy groups. However, a distal 3-difluoromethoxide (-OCHF2) group strongly competes as a leaving group, especially when an electron-deficient aryloxy group is present at position 3'. A yield of up to 50% may occur without observable 19F for 18F exchange.

ACS CENTRAL SCIENCE 2024; 10:1609-1618. [PMID: 39220691 PMCID: PMC11363353 DOI: 10.1021/acscentsci.4c00407] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2024] [Revised: 07/02/2024] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
To avoid the harsh conditions that are oftentimes adopted in direct radiofluorination reactions, conjugation of bioactive ligands with 18F-labeled prosthetic groups has become an important strategy to construct novel PET agents under mild conditions when the ligands are structurally sensitive. Prosthetic groups with [18F]fluoroarene motifs are especially appealing because of their stability in physiological environments. However, their preparation can be intricate, often requiring multistep radiosynthesis with functional group conversions to prevent the decomposition of unprotected reactive prosthetic groups during the harsh radiofluorination. Here, we report a general and simple method to generate a variety of highly reactive 18F-labeled electrophiles via one-step organophotoredox-mediated radiofluorination. The method benefits from high step-economy, reaction efficiency, functional group tolerance, and easily accessible precursors. The obtained prosthetic groups have been successfully applied in PET agent construction and subsequent imaging studies, thereby demonstrating the feasibility of this synthetic method in promoting imaging and biomedical research.

Abstract
This report describes a method for the photochemical Cu-mediated fluorination of aryl iodides with AgF via putative aryl radical (Ar•) intermediates. It involves irradiating an aryl iodide with UVB light (λmax = 313 nm) in the presence of a mixture of CuI and CuII salts and AgF. Under these conditions, fluorination proceeds at room temperature for substrates containing diverse substituents, including alkoxy and alkyl groups, ketones, esters, sulfonate esters, sulfonamides, and protected amines. This method has been translated to radiofluorination using a combination of K18F, K3PO4, and AgOTf.

Abstract
Herein, we disclose that pyridinium salts derived from abundant (hetero)anilines represent a novel precursor class for nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions with [18F]fluoride. The value of this new 18F-fluorodeamination is demonstrated with the synthesis of over 30 structurally diverse and complex heteroaryl 18F-fluorides, several derived from scaffolds that were yet to be labelled with fluorine-18. The protocol tolerates heteroarenes and functionalities commonly found in drug discovery libraries, and is amenable to scale-up and automation on a commercial radiosynthesiser.

Abstract
Aluminum fluoride (AlF) complexes have been used over the past decade to incorporate [18F]fluoride into large biomolecules in a highly selective fashion by using relatively facile conditions. However, despite their widespread usage, there are a large number of variations in the reaction conditions, without a definitive discussion provided on the mechanism to understand how these changes would alter the end result. Herein, we report a detailed mechanistic investigation of the reaction, using a mixture of theoretical studies, fluorine-19 and fluorine-18 chemistry, and the consequences it has on the efficient clinical translation of AlF-containing imaging agents.

Abstract
This review discusses recent advances in light-driven radiochemistry for three key isotopes: fluorine-18, carbon-11, and zirconium-89, and their applications in positron emission tomography (PET). In the case of fluorine-18, the predominant approach involves the use of cyclotron-produced [18F]fluoride or reagents derived thereof. Light serves to activate either the substrate or the fluorine-18 labeled reagent. Advancements in carbon-11 photo-mediated radiochemistry have been leveraged for the radiolabeling of small molecules, achieving various transformations, including 11C-methylation, 11C-carboxylation, 11C-carbonylation, and 11C-cyanation. Contrastingly, zirconium-89 photo-mediated radiochemistry differs from fluorine-18 and carbon-11 approaches. In these cases, light facilitates a postlabeling click reaction, which has proven valuable for the labeling of large biomolecules such as monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). New technological developments, such as the incorporation of photoreactors in commercial radiosynthesizers, illustrate the commitment the field is making in embracing photochemistry. Taken together, these advances in photo-mediated radiochemistry enable radiochemists to apply new retrosynthetic strategies in accessing novel PET radiotracers.

Abstract
Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling chemistry and in particular ketone α-arylation has been relying on a rather narrow range of supporting ligands with almost no alternatives to phosphines and N-heterocyclic carbenes. Here we introduce a class of well-defined palladium(II) complexes supported by N,N'-chelating and electronically flexible pyridylidene amide (PYA)-pyridyl ligands as catalysts for efficient α-arylation of ketones. Steric and electronic variations of the N,N'-bidentate ligand indicate that the introduction of an ortho-methyl group on the pyridinum heterocycle of the PYA ligand enhances the arylation rate and prevents catalyst deactivation, reaching turnover numbers up to 7300 and turnover frequencies of almost 10 000 h-1, which is similar to that of the best phosphine complexes known to date. Introducing a shielding xylyl substituent accelerates catalysis further, however at the expense of lower selectivity towards arylated ketones. Substrate scope investigations revealed that both electron-rich and -poor aryl bromides as well as a broad range of electronically and sterically modified ketones are efficiently converted, including aliphatic ketones. Mechanistic investigations using Hammett and Eyring analyses indicated that both, oxidative addition and reductive elimination are relatively fast, presumably as a consequence of the electronic flexibility of the PYA ligand, while enolate coordination was identified as the turnover-limiting step.

Abstract
Hypervalent fluoro-λ3-iodanes have emerged as versatile reagents that provide unusual fluorination selectivities under mild reaction conditions. Here, we report on adding a semipinacol rearrangement, fluorination, and aryl migration cascade reaction of styrene derivatives. Thus, various cyclopentanones became accessible in up to 96% yield, all bearing tertiary C,F-carbon centers adjacent to the ketone group. Such fluorinated structural motifs are difficult to build with previously established methods. Preliminary experiments on enantioselective processes validated that asymmetric transformations are likewise feasible.

Abstract
Recently, growing evidence of the relationship between G-protein coupled receptor 44 (GPR44) and the inflammation-cancer system has garnered tremendous interest, while the exact role of GPR44 has not been fully elucidated. Currently, there is a strong and urgent need for the development of non-invasive in vivo GPR44 positron emission tomography (PET) radiotracers that can be used to aid the exploration of the relationship between inflammation and tumor biologic behavior. Accordingly, the choosing and radiolabeling of existing GPR44 antagonists containing a fluorine group could serve as a viable method to accelerate PET tracers development for in vivo imaging to this purpose. The present study aims to evaluate published (2000-present) indole-based and cyclopentenyl-indole-based analogues of the GPR44 antagonist to guide the development of fluorine-18 labeled PET tracers that can accurately detect inflammatory processes. The selected analogues contained a crucial fluorine nuclide and were characterized for various properties including binding affinity, selectivity, and pharmacokinetic and metabolic profile. Overall, 26 compounds with favorable to strong binding properties were identified. This review highlights the potential of GPR44 analogues for the development of PET tracers to study inflammation and cancer development and ultimately guide the development of targeted clinical therapies.

Abstract
Two types of electrophilic trifluoromethylthiolating reagents were developed in the past 10 years in our laboratory. The development of the first type of reagent, trifluoromethanesulfenate I, which is highly reactive toward a variety of nucleophiles, was based on an unexpected discovery in the initial design for the development of an electrophilic trifluoromethylthiolating reagent with a hypervalent iodine skeleton. A structure-activity study disclosed that α-cumyl trifluoromethanesulfenate (reagent II) without the iodo substituent is equally effective. Subsequent derivatization let us develop an α-cumyl bromodifluoromethanesulfenate III that could be used for the preparation of [18F]ArSCF3. To remediate the low reactivity of the type I electrophilic trifluoromethylthiolating reagent for Friedel-Crafts trifluoromethylthiolation of electron-rich (hetero)arenes, we designed and prepared N-trifluoromethylthiosaccharin IV, which exhibits broad reactivity toward various nucleophiles, including electron-rich arenes. A comparison of the structure of N-trifluoromethylthiosaccharin IV with that of N-trifluoromethylthiophthalimide showed that the replacement of one carbonyl group in N-trifluoromethylthiophthalimide with a sulfonyl group made N-trifluoromethylthiosaccharin IV much more electrophilic. Thus, the replacement of both carbonyls with two sulfonyl groups would further increase the electrophilicity. Such a rationale prompted us to design and develop the current most electrophilic trifluoromethylthiolating reagent, N-trifluoromethylthiodibenzenesulfonimide V, and its reactivity was much higher than that of N-trifluoromethylthiosaccharin IV. We further developed an optically pure electrophilic trifluoromethylthiolating reagent, (1S)-(-)-N-trifluoromethylthio-2,10-camphorsultam VI, for the preparation of optically active trifluoromethylthio-substituted carbon stereogenic centers. Reagents I-VI now constitute a powerful toolbox for the introduction of the trifluoromethylthio group into the target molecules.

Abstract
18F-Labeling methods for the preparation of 18F-labeled molecular probes can be classified into electrophilic fluorination, nucleophilic fluorination, metal-F coordination, and 18F/19F isotope exchange. Isotope exchange-based 18F-labeling methods demonstrate mild conditions featuring water resistance and facile high-performance liquid chromatography-free purification in direct 18F-labeling of substrates. This paper systematically reviews isotope exchange-based 18F-labeling methods sorted by the adjacent atom bonding with F, i.e., carbon and noncarbon atoms (Si, B, P, S, Ga, Fe, etc.). The respective isotope exchange mechanism, radiolabeling condition, radiochemical yield, molar activity, and stability of the 18F-product are mainly discussed for each isotope exchange-based 18F-labeling method as well as the cutting-edge application of the corresponding 18F-labeled molecular probes.

[PMID: 36678506 PMCID: PMC9865388 DOI: 10.3390/ph16010010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2022] [Revised: 12/12/2022] [Accepted: 12/14/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
[18F]F-DOPA is widely used in PET diagnostics. Diseases diagnosed with this tracer are schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease, gliomas, neuroendocrine tumors, pheochromocytomas, and pancreatic adenocarcinoma. It should be noted that the [18F]F-DOPA tracer has been known for over 30 years. However, the methods of radiosynthesis applied in the past did not allow its clinical use due to low efficiency and purity. Currently, in the market, one encounters different types of radiosynthesis using the fluorine 18F isotope and variants of the same method. The synthesis and its modifications were carried out using a Raytest Synchrom R&D module. The synthesis consists of the following steps: (a) binding of the fluoride anion 18F- on an anion exchange column; (b) elution with TBAHCO3-; (c) nucleophilic fluorination to the ABX 1336 precursor; (d) purification of the intermediate product on the C18ec column; (e) Baeyer-Villiger oxidation; (f) hydrolysis; and (gfinal purification of the crude product on a semipreparative column. The nucleophilic synthesis of [18F]F-DOPA was successfully performed in 120 min, using the ABX 1336 precursor on the Raytest SynChrom R&D module, with a radiochemical yield (RCY) of 15%, radiochemical purity (RCP) ≥ 97%, and enantiomeric purity (ee) ≥ 96%.

Oxidation-Cyclisation of Biphenyl Thioethers to Dibenzothiophenium Salts for Ultrarapid 18F-Labelling of PET Tracers. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232415481.

Abstract
18F-labelled radiotracers are in high demand and play an important role for diagnostic imaging with positron emission tomography (PET). Challenges associated with the synthesis of the labelling precursors and the incorporation of [18F]fluoride with practical activity yields at batch scale are the main limitations for the development of new 18F-PET tracers. Herein, we report a high-yielding and robust synthetic method to access naked dibenzothiophenium salt precursors of complex PET tracers and their labelling with [18F]fluoride. C-S cross-coupling of biphenyl-2-thioacetate with aryl halides followed by sequential oxidation-cyclisation of the corresponding thioethers gives dibenzothiophenium salts in good to excellent yields. Labelling of neutral and electron-deficient substrates with [18F]fluoride is ultrarapid and occurs under mild conditions (1 min at 90 °C) with high activity yields. The method enables facile synthesis of complex and sensitive radiotracers, as exemplified by radiofluorination of three clinically relevant PET tracers [18F]UCB-J, [18F]AldoView and [18F]FNDP, and can accelerate the development and clinical translation of new 18F-radiopharmaceuticals.

Abstract
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men and the development of new therapeutic agents is needed for its treatment and/or diagnosis. 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 3 (17β-HSD3) is involved in the production of androgens, which stimulates the proliferation of prostate cancer cells. Piperazinomethyl-androsterone sulfonamide derivatives were developed as 17β-HSD3 inhibitors and the concentration of a representative sulfonamide derivative (compound 1) was found to accumulate in prostate tumor tissues relatively to plasma in a mouse xenograft experiment. This finding gives us the opportunity to specifically target the prostate cancer tumors through the development of a radiolabelled version of compound 1 toward targeted molecular radiotherapy or radioimaging diagnosis. The chemical synthesis of fluorinated and iodinated analogs of compound 1 was achieved, leading to a series of compounds with similar levels of inhibition as the initial candidate. From 17β-HSD3 inhibition activity, molecular modeling and mouse plasma-concentration studies, the most promising compound of this series was selected, its 18F-radiolabelled version (18F-3) synthesized, and imaging/biodistribution studies engaged. When injected in mice, however, 18F-3 uptake in the target tissues (LNCaP[17β-HSD3] tumors and testicles) was not sufficient to allow their visualization by positron emission tomography. Plasma concentration values of compounds 3-8 administered orally, however, showed that the para-iodo compound 7 is the most metabolically stable and could therefore be an interesting alternative for radiolabelling and radiotreatment.

Abstract
Radiolabeling of tetrazines has gained increasing attention due to their important role in pretargeted imaging or therapy. The most commonly used radionuclide in PET imaging is fluorine-18. For this reason, we have recently developed a method which enables the direct aromatic 18F-fluorination of tetrazines using stannane precursors through copper-mediated fluorinations. Herein, we further optimized this labeling procedure. 3-(3-fluorophenyl)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine was chosen for this purpose because of its high reactivity and respective limited stability during the labeling process. By optimizing parameters such as elution conditions, precursor amount, catalyst, time or temperature, the radiochemical yield (RCY) could be increased by approximately 30%. These conditions were then applied to optimize the RCY of a recently successfully developed and promising pretargeting imaging agent. This agent could be isolated in a decay corrected RCY of 14 ± 3% and Am of 201 ± 30 GBq/µmol in a synthesis time of 70 min. Consequently, the RCY increased by 27%.

Abstract
Fluorinated nucleosides and oligonucleotides are of specific interest as probes for studying nucleic acids interaction, structures, biological transformations, and its biomedical applications. Among various modifications of oligonucleotides, fluorination of preformed nucleoside and/or nucleotides have recently gained attention owing to the unique properties of fluorine atoms imparting medicinal properties with respect to the small size, electronegativity, lipophilicity, and ability for stereochemical control. This review deals with synthetic protocols for selective fluorination either at sugar or base moiety in a preformed nucleosides, nucleotides and nucleic acids using specific fluorinating reagents.

Abstract
Nucleophilic ionic sources of fluoride are essential reagents in the synthetic toolbox to access high added-value fluorinated building blocks unattainable by other means. In this review, we provide a concise description and rationale of the outstanding features of one of these reagents, tetramethylammonium fluoride (TMAF), as well as disclosing the different methods for its preparation, and how its physicochemical properties and solvation effects in different solvents are intimately associated with its reactivity. Furthermore, herein we also comprehensively describe its historic and recent utilization, up to December 2021, in C-F bond-forming reactions with special emphasis on nucleophilic aromatic substitution fluorinations with a potential sustainable application in industrial settings, as well as its use as a base capable of rendering unprecedented transformations.

Abstract
We present a quantum chemical analysis of the 18F-fluorination of 1,3-ditosylpropane, promoted by a quaternary ammonium salt (tri-(tert-butanol)-methylammonium iodide (TBMA-I) with moderate to good radiochemical yields (RCYs), experimentally observed by Shinde et al. We obtained the mechanism of the SN2 process, focusing on the role of the -OH functional groups facilitating the reactions. We found that the counter-cation TBMA+ acts as a bifunctional promoter: the -OH groups function as a bidentate 'anchor' bridging the nucleophile [18F]F- and the -OTs leaving group or the third -OH. These electrostatic interactions cooperate for the formation of the transition states of a very compact configuration for facile SN2 18F-fluorination.

Abstract
This report describes a method for the nucleophilic radiofluorination of (hetero)aryl chlorides, (hetero)aryl triflates, and nitroarenes using a combination of [18F]KF·K2.2.2 and Me4NHCO3 for the in situ formation of a strongly nucleophilic fluorinating reagent (proposed to be [18F]Me4NF). This method is applied to 24 substrates bearing diverse functional groups, and it generates [18F](hetero)aryl fluoride products in good to excellent radiochemical yields in the presence of ambient air/moisture. The reaction is applied to the preparation of 18F-labeled HQ-415 for potential (pre)clinical use.

Abstract
The trifluoromethyl group is a prominent motif in biologically active compounds and therefore of great interest for the labeling with the positron emitter fluorine-18 for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. Multiple labeling strategies have been explored in the past; however, most of them suffer from low molar activity due to precursor degradation. In this study, the potential of 1-(difluoromethyl)-3-methyl-4-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-3-ium triflate as precursor for the synthesis of the [18 F]trifluoromethylation building block [18 F]fluoroform with high molar activity was investigated. The triazolium precursor was reacted under various conditions with [18 F]fluoride, providing [18 F]fluoroform with radiochemical yields (RCY) and molar activities (Am ) comparable and even superior with already existing methods. Highest molar activities (Am = 153 ± 14 GBq/μmol, dc, EOS) were observed for the automated procedure on the Neptis® perform module. Due to its easy handling and good RCY and Am in the [18 F]fluoroform synthesis, the triazolium precursor is a valuable alternative to already known precursors.

[PMID: 34659701 PMCID: PMC8442695 DOI: 10.1039/d1sc02789a] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2021] [Accepted: 07/25/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Pretargeted imaging can be used to visualize and quantify slow-accumulating targeting vectors with short-lived radionuclides such as fluorine-18 - the most popular clinically applied Positron Emission Tomography (PET) radionuclide. Pretargeting results in higher target-to-background ratios compared to conventional imaging approaches using long-lived radionuclides. Currently, the tetrazine ligation is the most popular bioorthogonal reaction for pretargeted imaging, but a direct 18F-labeling strategy for highly reactive tetrazines, which would be highly beneficial if not essential for clinical translation, has thus far not been reported. In this work, a simple, scalable and reliable direct 18F-labeling procedure has been developed. We initially studied the applicability of different leaving groups and labeling methods to develop this procedure. The copper-mediated 18F-labeling exploiting stannane precursors showed the most promising results. This approach was then successfully applied to a set of tetrazines, including highly reactive H-tetrazines, suitable for pretargeted PET imaging. The labeling succeeded in radiochemical yields (RCYs) of up to approx. 25%. The new procedure was then applied to develop a pretargeting tetrazine-based imaging agent. The tracer was synthesized in a satisfactory RCY of ca. 10%, with a molar activity of 134 ± 22 GBq μmol-1 and a radiochemical purity of >99%. Further evaluation showed that the tracer displayed favorable characteristics (target-to-background ratios and clearance) that may qualify it for future clinical translation.

Abstract
The late-stage C–H functionalization of bioactive structural motifs is a powerful synthetic strategy for accessing advanced agrochemicals, bioimaging materials, and drug candidates, among other complex molecules. While traditional late-stage diversification relies on the use of precious transition metals, the utilization of 3d transition metals is an emerging approach in organic synthesis. Among the 3d metals, manganese catalysts have gained increasing attention for late-stage diversification due to the sustainability, cost-effectiveness, ease of operation, and reduced toxicity. Herein, we summarize recent manganese-catalyzed late-stage C–H functionalization reactions of biologically active small molecules and complex peptides.

Abstract
Background Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) plays a crucial role in neuroinflammation, especially microglial activity, and may potentially represent a useful biomarker of neuroinflammation. In this study, we carefully defined a strategic plan to develop iNOS-targeted molecular PET imaging using (4′-amino-5′,8′-difluoro-1′H-spiro[piperidine-4,2′-quinazolin]-1-yl)(4-fluorophenyl)methanone ([18F]FBAT) as a tracer in a mouse model of lipopolysaccharide- (LPS-) induced brain inflammation. Methods An in vitro model, murine microglial BV2 cell line, was used to assess the uptake of [18F]FBAT in response to iNOS induction at the cellular level. In vivo whole-body dynamic PET/MR imaging was acquired in LPS-treated (5 mg/kg) and control mice. Standard uptake value (SUV), total volume of distribution (Vt), and area under the curve (AUC) based on the [18F]FBAT PET signals were determined. The expression of iNOS was confirmed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) of brain tissues. Results At the end of synthesis, the yield of [18F]FBAT was 2.2–3.1% (EOS), radiochemical purity was >99%, and molar radioactivity was 125–137 GBq/μmol. In vitro, [18F]FBAT rapidly and progressively accumulated in murine microglial BV2 cells exposed to LPS; however, [18F]FBAT accumulation was inhibited by aminoguanidine, a selective iNOS inhibitor. In vivo biodistribution studies of [18F]FBAT showed a significant increase in the liver and kidney on LPS-treated mice. At 3 h postinjection of LPS, in vivo, the [18F]FBAT accumulation ratios at 30 min post intravenous (i.v.) radiotracer injection for the whole brain, cortex, cerebellum, and brainstem were 2.16 ± 0.18, 1.53 ± 0.25, 1.41 ± 0.21, and 1.90 ± 0.12, respectively, compared to those of mice not injected with LPS. The mean area under the curve (AUC0-30min), total volume of distribution (Vt, mL/cm3), and Ki (influx rate) of [18F]FBAT were 1.9 ± 0.21- and 1.4 ± 0.22-fold higher in the 3 h LPS group, respectively, than in the control group. In the pharmacokinetic two-compartment model, the whole brain Ki of [18F]FBAT was significantly higher in mice injected with LPS compared to the control group. Aminoguanidine, selective iNOS inhibitor, pretreatment significantly reduced the AUC0-30min and Vt values in LPS-induced mice. Quantitative analysis of immunohistochemically stained brain sections confirmed iNOS was preferentially upregulated in the cerebellum and cortex of mice injected with LPS. Conclusion An automated robotic method was established for radiosynthesis of [18F]FBAT, and the preliminary in vitro and in vivo results demonstrated the feasibility of detecting iNOS activity/expression in LPS-treated neuroinflammation by noninvasive imaging with [18F]FBAT PET/MRI.

Abstract
[18 F]β-CFT is a positron emission tomography (PET) ligand for imaging of dopamine transporter. It was proved to be a sensitive PET marker to detect presynaptic dopaminergic hypofunction in Parkinson's disease. In recent years, copper-mediated 18 F-fluorination of aryl boronic esters has been successful in some molecules containing aromatic groups. In this study, we describe the novel synthetic strategy of [18 F]β-CFT by copper-mediated nucleophilic radiofluorination with pinacol-derived aryl boronic esters upon reaction with [18 F]KF/K222 and Cu (OTf)2 (py)4 . The radiolabeling protocol was optimized with [18 F]fluoride elution method and amount of copper catalyst used. [18 F]β-CFT is obtained from boronic ester precursors in 2.2% to 10.6% non-isolated radiochemical yield (RCY). Purified [18 F]β-CFT with >99% radiochemical purity (RCP) and high molar activity was obtained in validation runs. The radiolabeling procedure is straightforward and can easily be adapted for clinical use.

Abstract
The development of new 18 F-based radiopharmaceuticals constantly demands innovations in the search for new radiofluorination methods. [18 F]fluoride is the simplest and most convenient chemical form of the isotope for the synthesis of 18 F-based radiopharmaceuticals. The ease of production and handling, as well as the possibility of obtaining high molar activities, makes it the preferred choice for radiofluorination. However, the use of [18 F]fluoride in late-stage radiofluorination comes with challenges, especially for the radiolabeling of electron-rich molecules where SN 2 and SN Ar reactions are not suitable. New developments in fluorination chemistry have been extensively studied to overcome these difficulties. Selective electrochemical oxidation of precursors, using a controlled potential, is one method to create reactive intermediates and overcome the activation energy required for nucleophilic fluorination of electron-rich moieties. This method has been used for years in cold fluorination of organic molecules and more recently has been adapted as an alternative to traditional radiofluorination methods. Although relatively young, this field stands out as a promising route for the synthesis of new PET probes as well as fluorinated pharmaceuticals. This review focuses on recent advances in electrochemical radiofluorination as an alternative for the late-stage radiolabeling of organic molecules.

Abstract
Synthesis of sulfamoyl [18F]fluorides has been a challenging topic owing to the inefficient nucleophilic radiofluorination of sulfamoyl derivatives. Herein, we report an 18F/19F isotopic exchange approach to synthesize various sulfamoyl [18F]fluorides, otherwise inaccessible via direct synthesis from amines, with high radiochemical yields up to 97% (30 examples). This late-stage labeling protocol offers an efficient route to yield functionalized molecules by diversifying the chemical library possessing sulfamoyl functionalities through nucleophilic 18F incorporation within nitrogen-containing sulfur(VI) frameworks.

Abstract
The neurotracer 6-[18F] FDOPA has been, for many years, a powerful tool in PET imaging of neuropsychiatric diseases, movement disorders and brain malignancies. More recently, it also demonstrated good results in the diagnosis of other malignancies such as neuroendocrine tumours, pheochromocytoma or pancreatic adenocarcinoma.The multiple clinical applications of this tracer fostered a very strong interest in the development of new and improved methods for its radiosynthesis. The no-carrier-added nucleophilic 18F-fluorination process has gained increasing attention, in recent years, due to the high molar activities obtained, when compared with the other methods although the radiochemical yield remains low (17-30%). This led to the development of several nucleophilic synthetic processes in order to obtain the product with molar activity, radiochemical yield and enantiomeric purity suitable for human PET studies.Automation of the synthetic processes is crucial for routine clinical use and compliance with GMP requirements. Nevertheless, the complexity of the synthesis makes the production challenging, increasing the chance of failure in routine production. Thus, for large-scale clinical application and wider use of this radiopharmaceutical, progress in the automation of this complex radiosynthesis is of critical importance.This review summarizes the most recent developments of 6-[18F]FDOPA radiosynthesis and discusses the key issues regarding its automation for routine clinical use.

Abstract
The lack of efficient [18F]fluorination processes and target-specific organofluorine chemotypes remains the major challenge of fluorine-18 positron emission tomography (PET). We report here an ultrafast isotopic exchange method for the radiosynthesis of novel PET agent aryl [18F]fluorosulfate enabled by the emerging sulfur fluoride exchange (SuFEx) click chemistry. The method has been applied to the fully automated 18F-radiolabeling of 25 structurally and functionally diverse aryl fluorosulfates with excellent radiochemical yield (83-100%, median 98%) and high molar activity (280 GBq μmol-1) at room temperature in 30 s. The purification of radiotracers requires no time-consuming HPLC but rather a simple cartridge filtration. We further demonstrate the imaging application of a rationally designed poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1)-targeting aryl [18F]fluorosulfate by probing subcutaneous tumors in vivo.

Abstract
Ketones with remote fluorination are an important motif in the synthesis of bioactive molecules. Here we demonstrate that ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) is able to produce this functionality under incredibly mild conditions and short reaction times (30 min) while eliminating the need for precious metals in previous methods. Importantly, this method allows the efficient synthesis of a wide variety of γ-fluoroketones and is highly scalable. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest this reaction proceeds through a radical pathway.

[PMID: 33511934 DOI: 10.2174/1874471014666210129141221] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2020] [Revised: 10/20/2020] [Accepted: 11/22/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Fluorine-18 is one of the promising radiotracers that can report target specific information related to its physiology to understand the disease status through PET modality. In current study, the radiochemical synthesis, purification and molecular docking studies of fluorine-18 (18F) radiolabeled coumarin-triazole hybrid have been performed. OBJECTIVE To develop target specific fluorine-18 radiotracer for the diagnosis in oncology. METHODS GE Tracer-lab FX2N module with few modifications in the line connections was used for the radiosynthesis and purification of target molecule [18F]SG-2, 4-((2,6-dimethylmorpholino) methyl)-7-((1-(4-(fluoro-18F) benzyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl) oxy)-2H-chromen-2-one, through the nucleophilic radiofluorination mechanism. The radiochemical purity was measured by HPLC, and TLC analytical methods. The kryptofix levels were also evaluated by using TLC method. The residual solvents like DMF, ethanol was measured using GC. The Schrödinger drug discovery suite 2018 was used to study the protein and ligand interactions. RESULTS The quality control parameters revealed the purity, chemical identity, and limits of residual solvents. The radiochemical purity was 95.5 ± 2.3 %, and dimethyl formamide solvent limit was 89 ± 3 ppm. The molecular docking results had suggested that the cold target molecule has made strong electronic interactions and showed the possible pharmacokinetic (ADME) properties with galectin-1 protein. Overall, these results showed that [18F]SG-2 radiolabeling with 18F radionuclide was feasible, and support of molecular docking studies suggest possible interactions with Galectin-1. CONCLUSION we reported feasibility study for labeling coumarin-triazole hybrid with fluorine-18 through aromatic nucleophilic fluorination reaction (SNAr).

Abstract
A hydrogen bond donor solvent assisted (radio)halogenation and deuteration of organoborons has been developed. The reactions exhibited high functional group tolerance and needed only an ambient atmosphere. Most importantly, compared to literature methods, our conditions are more consistent with the principals of green chemistry (e.g., metal-free, strong oxidant-free, more straightforward conditions).

Abstract
Herein, we describe an organic photoredox system for direct arene C-H radiofluorination, using a peroxide oxidizing agent and LEDs as the light source. In conjunction with an optimized photocatalyst and a microtubing reactor, this system is applicable to a range of electron-rich aromatics and heteroaromatics. We also demonstrate the feasibility of C-H radiofluorination without an azeotropic drying step, which greatly simplifies the workflow of the labeling process.

Abstract
The Pauson-Khand reaction (PKR) is one of the key methods for the construction of cyclopentenone derivatives, which can in turn undergo diverse chemical transformations to yield more complex biologically active molecules. Despite the increasing availability of fluorinated building blocks and methodologies to incorporate fluorine in compounds with biological interest, there have been few significant advances focused on the fluoro-Pauson-Khand reaction, both in the inter- and intramolecular versions. Furthermore, the use of vinyl fluorides as olefinic counterparts had been completely overlooked. In this review, we collect the advances both on the stoichiometric and catalytic intermolecular and intramolecular fluoro-Pauson-Khand reaction, with special attention to the PKR of enynes containing a fluoride moiety.
