The synthesis of 4-[18F]fluoroguaiacol (4-[18F]fluoro-2-methoxyphenol) has been achieved in no-carrier-added form starting from 2-methoxy-4-nitrobenzaldehyde, using nucleophilic aromatic substitution by [18F]fluoride followed by Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of the benzaldehyde to the phenol. Demethylation with boron tribromide gave 4-[18F]fluorocatechol (1,2-dihydroxy-4-[18F]fluorobenzene) with an overall
