The synthesis of 2‐([4‐ 18 F]fluorophenyl)benzimidazole, which has potential to be used as a building block for many endogenous and pharmaceutical compounds, is reported. A range of solvents and catalysts as well as conventional and microwave heating have been investigated to optimise the reaction conditions. The cyclocondensation of 1,2‐diaminobenzene with radiolabelled [4‐ 18 F]fluorobenzoic acid in neat methanesulphonic and polyphosphoric acids under microwave heating led rapidly to the cyclised phenylbenzimidazole.
