Molecular Imaging of Sirtuin1 Expression-Activity in Rat Brain Using Positron-Emission Tomography-Magnetic-Resonance Imaging with [18F]-2-Fluorobenzoylaminohexanoicanilide

Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) is a class III histone deacetylase that plays significant roles in the regulation of lifespan, metabolism, memory, and circadian rhythms and in the mechanisms of many diseases. However, methods of monitoring the pharmacodynamics of SIRT1

Exploration of alcohol-enhanced Cu-mediated radiofluorination toward practical labeling

Copper-mediated nucleophilic radiofluorination using boronic precursors is a promising, general method to label aromatic compounds with [18F]fluoride. However, in various reports, large amounts of precursor (60 μmol) were needed to achieve high

Catalyst-Free Aromatic Radiofluorination via Oxidized Iodoarene Precursors

Oxidized iodoarenes (OIAs), prepared via mCPBA-mediated oxidation, have been demonstrated as versatile precursors for the synthesis of [18F]fluoroarenes in the absence of catalysts. OIAs have been identified as intermediates in single-pot syntheses of iodonium salts and ylides but have never been recognized as radiofluorination precursors. Here, the isolated OIAs were used without any catalysts to produce functionalized [18F]fluoroarenes, regardless of the electronic nature of the arenes. This method was also applied to the production of radiolabeling synthons for use as aromatic 18F-labeled building blocks.

FLUORINATION METHOD

The present invention relates to a process for producing an organic compound comprising an 18F atom. The compounds comprising an 18F can be useful as PET ligands for use in diagnostics and/or scanning. The process of the invention comprises treating an organoboron compound, which organoboron compound comprises a boron atom bonded to an sp2 hybridised carbon atom, with (i) 18F – and (ii) a copper compound. The invention also provides the use of an organoboron compound, which organoboron compound comprises a boron atom bonded to an sp2 hybridised carbon atom, in a process for producing an organic compound comprising an 18F atom, which process comprises treating the organoboron compound with (i) 18F – and (ii) a copper compound. The invention also provides a compound of formula (XXXVII): wherein: each PGA is independently H or an alcohol protecting group; PGB is H or a carboxylic acid protecting group; each PGC is independently an amine protecting group; Z is a group selected from a boronic ester group, a boronic acid group, a borate group, and a trifluoroborate group; and a is an integer from 0 to 4.

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
