Fluorine‐18‐labeled lapatinib has been successfully synthesized for the first time by the reaction of a dimethylformamide solution of meta ‐[ 18 F]fluorobenzylbromide with a Boc‐protected lapatinib precursor fragment. The reaction proceeded in the presence of K 2 CO 3 at 110 °C for 10 min in a microwave and was followed by Boc‐group deprotection with trifluoroacetic acid. The overall radiochemical yield of the reaction starting from the radiofluorination of the iodonium salt was 8–12% (uncorrected, n  = 6) in a 140‐min synthesis time.
