The versatile 18 F‐labeled prosthetic group, 4‐nitrophenyl 2‐[ 18 F]fluoropropionate ([ 18 F]NFP), was synthesized in a single step in 45 min from 4‐nitrophenyl 2‐bromopropionate, with a decay corrected radiochemical yield of 26.2% ± 2.2%. Employing this improved synthesis of [ 18 F]NFP, [ 18 F]GalactoRGD — the current ‘gold standard’ tracer for imaging the expression of α V β 3 integrin — was prepared with high specific activity in 90 min and 20% decay corrected radiochemical yield from [ 18 F]fluoride.
