Abstract

In this study, we introduce a practical methodology for the synthesis of PET probes by seamlessly combining flow chemistry with photoredox radiofluorination. The clinical PET tracer 6-[18F]FDOPA was smoothly prepared in a 24.3% non-decay-corrected yield with over 99.0% radiochemical purity (RCP) and enantiomeric excess (ee), notably by a simple cartridge-based purification. The flow chemistry-enhanced photolabeling method supplies an efficient and versatile solution for the synthesis of 6-[18F]FDOPA and for more PET tracer development.
