Optimization for arene deoxyradiofluorination
| entry | deviation from standard conditions | RCY (%) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | none | 94.6 ± 0.4 (n=3) |
| 2 | w/o TBAHCO3 | 75.2 |
| 3 | w/o TBAHCO3, + H2O (100 μL) | N.D. |
| 4 | S2 (0.01 mmol), w/o TBAHCO3 | 71.7 |
| 5 | S2 (0.002 mmol), w/o TBAHCO3 | 34.3 |
| 6 | S2 (0.01 mmol), 1 (0.3 mg), w/o TBAHCO3 | 24.3 |
| 7 | blue LEDs | 83.2 |
| 8 | No photocatalyst | N.D.b |
| 9 | No irradiation | 2.6 |
All radiochemical yields (RCYs) are calculated by HPLC isolation starting from azeotropically dried [18F]TBAF, and represent one experiment unless otherwise noted;
See Supplementary Tables 2–7 for full optimization details.
