Using easily handled CsF as a fluorine source, an electrochemically metal-free protocol for chemo- and regioselective synthesis of various types of long-chain perfluoroalkyl aromatics with -difluoroalkene as a substrate and an alcohol or azole as an additional nucleophile was developed. The eletrochemical transformation could tolerate several functional groups, such as halogens, cyanos, benzyls, and heterocycles, and is amenable to gram-scale. The application of this electrochemical method in radiofluorination was also tested.

Comparison of Plasma p-tau217 and [F]FDG-PET for Identifying Alzheimer Disease in People With Early-Onset or Atypical Dementia.

Background And Objectives: To compare the diagnostic performance of an immunoassay for plasma concentrations of phosphorylated tau (p-tau) 217 with visual assessments of fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose [F]FDG-PET in individuals who meet appropriate use criteria for Alzheimer dementia (AD) biomarker assessments.

Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of individuals with early-onset (age <65 years at onset) and/or atypical dementia (features other than memory at onset), who were evaluated at a tertiary care memory clinic. All participants underwent measurements of CSF biomarkers (Aβ42, p-tau181, and total tau levels), as well as [F]FDG-PET scans, amyloid-PET scans, and plasma p-tau217 quantifications.

The heme paradigm where Fe=O acts as the C-H oxidant and Fe-OH rebounds with the formed carbon-centered radical guides the design of the prototypical synthetic hydroxylation catalyst. We are exploring methods to evolve beyond the metal-oxo oxidant and hydroxide rebound, to incorporate a wider array of functional group. We have demonstrated the application of Co(OTf) (10 mol% catalyst; OTf=trimfluoromethanesulfonate) in combination with polydentate N-donor ligands (e.

This work reports the synthesis method and various properties of four rod-like antiferroelectric () laterally substituted enantiomers, with or without fluorine atoms used as substituents in the benzene ring. The influence of fluorine substitution on the mesophase temperature range was determined. The synthesized compounds are three-ring rod-like smectics with a chiral center based on ()-(-)-2-octanol.

A 72-year-old man with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma underwent fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT, revealing lymphoma lesions and no evidence of aortitis. The patient received chemotherapy and was treated with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) for neutropenia. During chemotherapy, the patient underwent PET/CT again, revealing FDG accumulation and wall thickening at the aortic arch, which suggested aortitis.

1,6-Nucleophilic Di- and Trifluoromethylation of -Quinone Methides with MeSiCFH/MeSiCF Facilitated by CsF/18-Crown-6.

Molecules

The direct 1,6-nucleophilic difluoromethylation, trifluoromethylation, and difluoroalkylation of -quinone methides (-QMs) with MeSiRf (Rf = CFH, CF, CFCF, CFCOOEt, and CFSPh) under mild conditions are described. Although MeSiCFH shows lower reactivity than MeSiCF, it can react with -QMs promoted by CsF/18-Crown-6 to give structurally diverse difluoromethyl products in good yields. The products can then be further converted into fluoroalkylated -quinone methides and -fluoroalkylated diarylmethanes.
