Procedure
3-Fluoroestrone was synthesized from 2-aminoestrone by adapting the procedure reported by Doyle and Bryker (J. Org. Chem. 44, 1572-1574, 1979) for the synthesis of arenediaxonium tetrafluoroborate salts from aromatic amines. The procedure is as followed: To neat stirred boron trifluoride etherate (642 μL, 719 mg, 5.07 mmol) at −15° C. under Ar (g) was added a solution of 3-aminoestrone (101) (910 mg, 3.38 mmol) in dry CH2Cl2 (10 mL). After 15 min, a solution of t-butylnitrite (482 μL, 418 mg, 4.05 mmol) in dry CH2Cl2 (5 mL) was dropwise added. The now dark brown solution was stirred at −15° C. for 15 min, then at 0° C. for 30 min. Pentane was added to the solution and a gummy solid precipitated. The solvent was decanted and the residue was dried under vacuum to give a crude light brown solid. The neat solid was heated under vacuum at 70-80° C. in an oil bath for 15 min to give a crude orange solid. Purification by flash chromatography on SiO2 using 1:9 EtOAc/Hexanes gave 3-fluoroestrone (102) as a white solid (437 mg, 47%).
