In the field of molecular imaging, positron emission tomography (PET) has emerged as an imaging modality with excellent sensitivity for in vivo studies.[1] PET labeling is challenging since short-lived positron-emitting isotopes such as 18F and 11C are used as labeling agents.[2] The optimization and efficient application of rapid and reliable labeling strategies are prerequisites for obtaining access to new radiopharmaceuticals for both research and clinical trials. Bioactive peptides that specifically address molecular targets in vivo represent an important class of PET tracers to facilitate predictive imaging and PET-guided therapy. Diverse strategies for the synthesis of peptide-based radiopharmaceuticals using 18F-labeled prosthetic groups have been elaborated, including chemoselective oxime conjugation [3] and the use of 18F-labeled maleimide derivatives as cysteinereactive reagents.[4, 5] Following the concept of click chemistry introduced by Sharpless et al.,[6] the Huisgen [3+ 2] azide–alkyne cycloaddition has been adapted to 18F-radiosynthetic methods in order to take advantage of its selectivity, reliability, and speed under aqueous mild CuI-promoted reaction conditions.[7]The versatility of peptide imaging agents is frequently hampered by their instability in vivo because of rapid degradation by endogenous peptidases. As an example, the synthesis of radiolabeled peptide-based imaging agents for the neurotensin receptor-1 (NTR-1), which is overexpressed in a number of human cancers, requires modifications to improve the metabolic stability.[8]
