Direct F-Fluorosulfurylation of Phenols and Amines Using an [F]FSO Transfer Agent Generated .

We report the direct radiofluorosulfurylation method for the synthesis of F-labeled fluorosulfuryl derivatives from phenols and amines using an [F]FSO transfer agent generated . Nucleophilic radiofluorination is achieved even in a hydrous organic medium, obviating the need for azeotropic drying and the use of cryptands. This unprecedented, operationally simple isotopic functionalization facilitates the reliable production of potential radiotracers for positron emission tomography, rendering facile access to SuFEx radiochemistry.
