Glucose 6-phosphate, 2-deoxy-2- fluoro synthesis

In fluorine-18 chemistry some enzymatic transformations of compounds already labelled with fluorine-18 have been reported the synthesis of 6-[ F] fluoro-L-DOPA from 4-[ F]catechol by jS-tyrosinase [241], the separation of racemic mixtures of p F]fluoroaromatic amino acids by L-amino acylase [242] and the preparation of the coenzyme uridine diphospho-2-deoxy-2-p F]fluoro-a-o-glucose from [ F]FDG-1-phosphate by UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase [243]. In living nature compounds exhibiting a carbon-fluorine bond are very rare.
