The translation of 11C-labeled compounds into their respective 18F-labeled derivatives is an important tool in the rapid development of positron emission tomography (PET) tracers. Thus, our aim was the development of a general method for the preparation of 18F-fluoroethylated compounds that (a) is applicable to a variety of precursors, (b) can be performed in a fully automated commercially available synthesizer and (c) enables this rapid translation of 11C-methylated tracers into their 18F-fluoroethylated analogs sharing the same precursor molecules.
