The novel building blocks were efficiently prepared from easily accessible [F-18]fluorobenzaldehydes by using the Bestmann-Ohira reagent. High radiochemical yields and excellent radiochemical purities were achieved within only 20 min of reaction time; 2- and 4-[F-18]FPAs were applied to prepare radiofluorinated heterocycles by using different cycloaddition and cross-coupling reactions. Additionally, these building blocks were used to prepare three novel PET tracers. Thus, an artificial radiofluorinated protected amino acid [F-18]10, a COX-2-specific ligand [F-18]14, and a PSMA-selective inhibitor [F-18]16 were obtained in high radiochemical yields.
