We report on the preparation of a hypoxia marker 2-(2-nitroimidazol-1[H]-yl)-N-(3-fluoropropyl)acetamide (EF1) and its 18F analog, 2-(2-nitroimidazol-1[H]-yl)-N- (3-[18F]fluoropropyl)acetamide… (More)
[reaction: see text] A new atom-economic procedure for preparation of trifluoromethyl thio- and selenoethers is reported, wherein both halves of aryl and alkyl disulfides and diselenides are able to… (More)
Using a procedure analogous to that developed for nucleophilic trifluoromethylation, the perfluoroalkyl anion reagents created by mixing C2F5I and n-C4F9I with tetrakis(dimethylamino)ethylene (TDAE)… (More)
Treatment of deactivated aromatic compounds with Nbromosuccinimide in trifluoroacetic acid solvent in the presence of sulfuric acid gave the corresponding monobromoaromatic compounds in good to… (More)
A novel method for nucleophilic trifluoromethylation of aldehydes and ketones, based on photoinduced reduction of trifluoromethyl iodide by tetrakis(dimethylamino)ethylene (TDAE), is presented.… (More)
The nucleophilic trifluoromethylation reagent derived from CF3I and tetrakis(dimethylamino)ethylene (TDAE) was found to be effective in addition to both N-tosyl aldimines and N-tolyl sulfinimines,… (More)
