Abstract
2-Fluoro-1,3-thiazoles were rapidly and efficiently labeled with no-carrier-added fluorine-18 (t(1/2) = 109.7 min) by treatment of readily prepared 2-halo precursors with cyclotron-produced [(18)F]fluoride ion. The [(18)F]2-fluoro-1,3-thiazolyl moiety constitutes a new and easily-labeled structural motif for prospective molecular imaging radiotracers.
