Abstract

Rapid and efficient radioiodination of aryl and heteroaryl bromides has been achieved using a nickel(0)-mediated halogen-exchange reaction. This transformation gives direct access to [<sup>123</sup>I]- and [<sup>125</sup>II]-imaging agents for single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), such as 5-[<sup>123</sup>I]-A85380 (see scheme, Boc=tert-butyloxycarbonyl, cod=1,5-cyclooctadiene, TFA=trifluoroacetic acid).
