Abstract

To assess the potential of intermolecular hydroacylation reactions as a new fluorine-18 labeling method, model reactions of [18F]fluorobenzaldehyde with three different olefins (1-hexene (2a), allylbenzene (2b), and 3-phenoxypropene (2c)) in the presence of Wilkinson's catalyst were performed. The procedure gave high radiochemical yields (38-62%) of [18F]fluorophenylketones with short reaction times (15 min). The intermolecular hydroacylation reaction provides a new method for the preparation of fluorine-18 labeled compounds.
