title: A versatile approach to beta-amyloid fibril-binding compounds exploiting the Shirakawa/Hayashi protocol for trans-alkene synthesis.
abstract: Application of the Sonogashira coupling reaction followed by a trans-selective alkyne reduction proved highly adaptable for the efficient synthesis of a class of beta-amyloid fibril binding compounds possessing a styrylbenzene motif such as FSB, an FSB dimer, and (19)F-BAY94-9172.
