Lewis acid-assisted radiofluorination was exemplified on the temperature-sensitive compound 1-(4-(4-morpholino-7-neopentyl-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-2-yl)phenyl)-3-(6-nitropyridin-3-yl)urea (MN3PU, compound 3) targeting leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2), an important target in the study of Parkinson’s disease and various cancers. The gene discussed is LRRK2; the disease is cancer.
