Key words

copper - [18F]trifluoromethylation - aryl iodides - heteroaryl iodides

Significance

The authors disclose the easy and broadly applicable late-stage [18F]trifluoromethylation of various aryl and heteroaryl iodides using methyl chlorodifluoroacetate, CuI, TMEDA, and [18F]fluoride. The [18F]trifluoromethylated (hetero)aryls, which serve as [18F]-PET (positron emission tomography) tracers, are obtained in good yields.

Comment

Usually, access to [18F]-labelled probes is limited by the short half-life of 18F and the small availability of parent 18F sources that show a suitable reactivity, such as [18F]F– and [18F]F2. Furthermore, this operational simple [18F]CuCF3-based strategy excludes the tedious preparation of complex organometallic precursors and may be performed on air. The active [18F]CF3Cu is generated in situ.
