Methods : A three-step synthetic pathway was followed (scheme 1) and implemented on a GE FastLab system by modifying the original [F]FDG sequence and reagents cassette configuration. The process starts with the [F] F nucleophilic substitution of the trimethylammonium ethylbenzoate compound 1 followed by NaOH hydrolysis performed in the same labeling reactor . After acidification (HCl 0.25M), the resulting [F]Fluorobenzoic acid 3 was trapped and purified on a solid phase extraction cartridge before being coupled to amino-maleimide compound 4 in the next step. This was carried out using diethylcyanophosphonate [3] in acetonitrile at 70°C. Then [F]FBEM could be isolated and purified on a second SPE cartridge.
