Late-Stage Fluorination: From Fundamentals to Application
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this brief account, we review work from our lab with a focus on late-stage introduction of fluorine and fluorinated functional groups into small molecules. We attempt to highlight practical developments, which we believe may have potential for industrial applications, and critically reflect on developments that may not yet meet the bar for practical use.

A fluoride-derived electrophilic late-stage fluorination reagent for PET imaging.
The unnatural isotope fluorine-18 ((18)F) is used as a positron emitter in molecular imaging. Currently, many potentially useful (18)F-labeled probe molecules are inaccessible for imaging because no fluorination chemistry is available to make them. The 110-minute half-life of (18)F requires rapid syntheses for which [(18)F]fluoride is the preferred source of fluorine because of its practical ac...
متن کاملGreen approaches to late-stage fluorination: radiosyntheses of (18)F-labelled radiopharmaceuticals in ethanol and water.
Green strategies for late-stage fluorination with (18)F, in which ethanol and water are the only solvents used throughout the entire radiolabeling process (azeotropic drying, nucleophilic fluorination, purification and formulation), have been developed and applied to the radiosyntheses of a range of radiopharmaceuticals commonly employed in clinical PET imaging.
متن کاملNickel-mediated oxidative fluorination for PET with aqueous [18F] fluoride.
A one-step oxidative fluorination for carbon-fluorine bond formation from well-defined nickel complexes with oxidant and aqueous fluoride is presented, which enables a straightforward and practical (18)F late-stage fluorination of complex small molecules with potential for PET imaging.
متن کاملDirect photocatalytic fluorination of benzylic C-H bonds with N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide.
The late-stage fluorination of common synthetic building blocks and drug leads is an appealing reaction for medicinal chemistry. In particular, fluorination of benzylic C-H bonds provides a means to attenuate drug metabolism at this metabolically labile position. Here we report two complimentary strategies for the direct fluorination of benzylic C-H bonds using N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide and ei...
متن کاملStereospecific Synthesis of Fluoroalkenes by Silver-Mediated Fluorination of Functionalized Alkenylstannanes.
The known procedures for the conversion of alkenylstannanes into the corresponding fluoroalkenes suffer from largely variable yields and a limited compatibility with functional groups; most notably, protodestannation becomes a serious issue whenever protic sites are present in the substrate. Outlined in this paper is a convenient alternative with a much improved application profile, which is la...
