Abstract

A novel preparation of sodium [¹⁸F]-fluoroacetate is described where 5′-[¹⁸F]-fluoro-5′-deoxyadenosine is generated by a fluorinase catalysed reaction of S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) with no carrier added [¹⁸F]-fluoride and then oxidation to [¹⁸F]-fluoroacetate by a Kuhn–Roth oxidative degradation.
