Abstract A one-pot-two-step labeling of an oligonucleotide with an 18 F-ArBF 3−(aryltrifluoroborate) radioprosthetic is reported herein. In order to characterize labeling in terms of radiochemistry, phosphorus-32 was also introduced to the 5′-terminus of the oligonucleotide via enzymatic phosphorylation. A pendant azide group was subsequently conjugated to the 5′-phosphate of the oligonucleotide. Copper (I) catalyzed [2+ 3] ...
