4-Fluoroestradiol (4-FE2) is asyntheticestrogen and aderivative ofestradiol which was never marketed.[1] It is specifically the 4-fluoroanalogue of estradiol.[1] 4-Fluoroestradiol has 180 ± 43% of theaffinity of estradiol for theestrogen receptor of ratuterinecytosol and showspotentuterotrophic activity similar to that of estradiol in mice and rats.[1][2] It has beenlabeled withfluorine-18 (18F) for potential use inmedical imaging.[3][4][5]
