Electrochemical no-carrier-added radiofluorination of thioethers
Abstract
We report a method for no-carrier-added radiofluorination of thioethers, which are promising candidates for new Positron Emission Tomography tracers. For the first time > 100 MBq of 18F-fluorinated thioethers were produced by electrochemical radiofluorination carried out in the absence of non-radioactive fluorination agents. This is an unexpected achievement since multiple previous reports on this topic consistently demonstrated that high …
