General description

[18F]4-fluorobenzylamine reacts with the α- and γ-carboxyl groups of folic acid to yield 18F-labeled folate. It is an important building block for the synthesis of 18F-labeled compounds.

Application

4-Fluorobenzylamine was used in the synthesis of new tris-iron(III) chelates of 3-hydroxy-4-pyridinone ligands.

A novel synthesis of 4-[(18)F]fluorobenzylamine ([(18)F]FBA) by means of transition metal-assisted sodium borohydride reduction of 4-[(18)F]fluorobenzonitrile ([(18)F]FBN) is described. This approach could successfully be extended to borohydride exchange resin (BER) enabling a viable option for use in automated syntheses. [(18)F]FBA
