Copper-Catalyzed [18F]Fluorination of (Mesityl)(aryl)iodonium Salts
نویسندگان
چکیده
A practical, rapid, and highly regioselective Cu-catalyzed radiofluorination of (mesityl)(aryl)iodonium salts is described. This protocol utilizes [(18)F]KF to access (18)F-labeled electron-rich, -neutral, and -deficient aryl fluorides under a single set of mild conditions. This methodology is applied to the synthesis of protected versions of two important radiotracers: 4-[(18)F]fluorophenylalanine and 6-[(18)F]fluoroDOPA.

Cu-Mediated C–H 18F-Fluorination of Electron-Rich (Hetero)arenes
This communication describes a method for the nucleophilic radiofluorination of electron-rich arenes. The reaction involves the initial C(sp2)-H functionalization of an electron-rich arene with MesI(OH)OTs to form a (mesityl)(aryl)iodonium salt. This salt is then used in situ in a Cu-mediated radiofluorination with [18F]KF. This approach leverages the stability and availability of electron-rich...

A combination of experimental and density functional theory (DFT) investigations suggests that the Cu-catalyzed fluorination of unsymmetrical diaryliodonium salts with general structure [Mes(Ar)I]+ in N,N'-dimethylformamide proceeds through a CuI/CuIII catalytic cycle. A low concentration of fluoride relative to combined iodonium reagent plus copper ensures that [Mes(Ar)I]+ is available as the ...
متن کاملEfficient synthesis of aryl fluorides.
Selective functionalization reactions of aromatic and heteroaromatic halides with carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen nucleophiles have attracted much attention in the last decades. In addition to typical metal-catalyzed coupling reactions, direct functionalization of aryl halides through the formation of Grignard reagents offer new ways for the efficient construction of biologically interesting carbo...
متن کاملImproving alkynyl(aryl)iodonium salts: 2-anisyl as a superior aryl group.
The majority of alkynyl(aryl)iodonium salts reported in the literature are derived from iodobenzene. This article describes the effects of varying this iodoarene building block on the synthesis, reactivity and stability of these salts. Two procedures to synthesize a variety of known and novel alkynyl(aryl)iodonium tosylates directly from the iodoarene are reported. In the reactions of these sal...

A copper-mediated radiofluorination of aryl- and vinylboronic acids with K(18)F is described. This method exhibits high functional group tolerance and is effective for the radiofluorination of a range of electron-deficient, -neutral, and -rich aryl-, heteroaryl-, and vinylboronic acids. This method has been applied to the synthesis of [(18)F]FPEB, a PET radiotracer for quantifying metabotropic ...
