Unlabelled: Translation of new methodologies for labeling nonactivated aromatic molecules with (18)F remains a challenge. Here, we report a one-step, regioselective, metal-free (18)F-labeling method that uses a hypervalent iodonium(III) ylide precursor, to prepare the radiopharmaceutical (18)F-3-fluoro-5-[(pyridin-3-yl)ethynyl]benzonitrile ((18)F-FPEB).
Methods: Automated radiosynthesis of (18)F-FPEB was achieved by reaction of the ylide precursor (4 mg) with (18)F-Et4NF in dimethylformamide at 80°C for 5 min and formulated for injection within 1 h.
Results: (18)F-FPEB was synthesized in 20% ± 5% (n = 3) uncorrected radiochemical yields relative to (18)F-fluoride, with specific activities of 666 ± 51.8 GBq (18 ± 1.4 Ci)/μmol at the end of synthesis and was validated for human use.
Conclusion: Radiofluorination of iodonium (III) ylides proved to be an efficient radiosynthetic strategy for synthesis of (18)F-labeled radiopharmaceuticals.

This study introduces a novel class of carbon-centered diradicals: a monosubstituted C-atom stabilized by a phosphine. The diradical Ph3P→C was photochemically generated from a diazophosphorus ylide precursor (Ph3PCN2) and characterized by EPR and isotope-sensitive ENDOR spectroscopy at low temperatures. Ph3P→C features an axial zero-field splitting parameter D = 0.

ConspectusThe manipulation of strained rings is a powerful strategy for accessing the valuable chemical frameworks present in natural products and active pharmaceutical ingredients. Aziridines, the smallest N-containing heterocycles, have long served as building blocks for constructing more complex amine-containing scaffolds. Traditionally, the reactivity of typical aziridines has been focused on ring-opening by nucleophiles or the formation of 1,3-dipoles.

Iminophosphoranes with the general formula (RP═NR') have great potential in synthetic chemistry as valuable precursors/intermediates in organic synthesis or as building blocks for various organic compounds. However, the synthetic approaches and conditions to prepare iminophosphoranes are still poorly understood, limiting the utility of this chemistry for organic materials. In this article, a simple and efficient synthesis of previously unattainable poly(arylene iminophosphoranes) is reported.

The chiral amine catalyzed diastereo- and enantioselective [3 + 2] cycloaddition between isatin-derived azomethine ylides and α,β-unsaturated aldehydes was successfully carried out to afford spiro[oxindole-3,2'-pyrrolidine]s. It was anticipated that the formation of azomethine ylides occurred the cycloreversion of dispirooxindole-imidazolidines, which are precursor imine homodimers, in aqueous solvents.

ConspectusIn the past decade, single-atom skeletal editing, which involves the precise insertion, deletion, or exchange of single atoms in the core skeleton of a molecule, has emerged as a promising synthetic strategy for the rapid construction or diversification of complex molecules without laborious synthetic processes. Among them, carbene-initiated skeletal editing is particularly appealing due to the ready availability and diverse reactivities of carbene species. The initial endeavors to modify the core skeleton of heteroarenes through carbon-atom insertion could date back to 1881, when Ciamician and Denstedt described the conversion of pyrroles to pyridines by trapping haloform-derived free carbene.
