Automated synthetic procedures of [ 18 F]fluoro‐[ di‐deutero ]methyl tosylate on a GE TRACERlab FX F‐N module and a non‐commercial synthesis module have been developed. The syntheses included azeotropic drying of the [ 18 F]fluoride, nucleophilic 18 F‐fluorination of bis(tosyloxy)‐[ di‐deutero ]methane, HPLC purification and subsequent formulation of the synthesized [ 18 F]fluoro‐[ di‐deutero ]methyl tosylate ( d 2 ‐[ 18 F]FMT) in organic solvents. Automation shortened the total synthesis time to 50 min, resulting in an average radiochemical yield of about 50% and high radiochemical purity (>98%). The possible application of this procedure to commercially available synthesis modules might be of significance for the production of deuterated 18 F‐fluoromethylated imaging probes in the future.
