Fluorine (9F) has 19 known isotopes ranging from 13
F
to 31
F
and two isomers (18m
F
and 26m
F
). Only fluorine-19 is stable and naturally occurring in more than trace quantities; therefore, fluorine is a monoisotopic and mononuclidic element.

The longest-lived radioisotope is 18
F
; it has a half-life of 109.734(8) min. All other fluorine isotopes have half-lives of less than a minute, and most of those less than a second. The least stable known isotope is 14
F
, whose half-life is 500(60) yoctoseconds,[4] corresponding to a resonance width of 910(100) keV.

Fluorine-18

[edit]

Of the unstable nuclides of fluorine, 18
F
has the longest half-life, 109.734(8) min. It decays to 18
O
via β+ decay. For this reason 18
F
is a commercially important source of positrons. Its major value is in the production of the radiopharmaceutical fludeoxyglucose, used in positron emission tomography in medicine.

Fluorine-18 is the lightest unstable nuclide with equal odd numbers of protons and neutrons, having 9 of each. (See also the "magic numbers" discussion of nuclide stability.)[8]

Fluorine-19

[edit]

Fluorine-19 is the only stable isotope of fluorine. Its abundance is 100%; no other isotopes of fluorine exist in significant quantities. Its binding energy is 147801.3648(38) keV. Fluorine-19 is NMR-active with a spin of 1/2+, so it is used in fluorine-19 NMR spectroscopy.

Fluorine-20

[edit]

Fluorine-20 is an unstable isotope of fluorine. It has a half-life of 11.0062(80) s and decays via beta decay to the stable nuclide 20
Ne
. Its specific radioactivity is 1.8693(14)×10+21 Bq/g and has a mean lifetime of 15.879(12) s.

Fluorine-21

[edit]

Fluorine-21, as with fluorine-20, is also an unstable isotope of fluorine. It has a half-life of 4.158(20) s. It undergoes beta decay as well, decaying to 21
Ne
, which is a stable nuclide. Its specific activity is 4.781(23)×10+21 Bq/g.

Isomers

[edit]

Only two nuclear isomers (long-lived excited nuclear states), fluorine-18m and fluorine-26m, have been characterized.[4] The half-life of 18m
F
before it undergoes isomeric transition is 162(7) nanoseconds.[4] This is less than the decay half-life of any of the fluorine radioisotope nuclear ground states except for mass numbers 14–16, 28, and 31. [9] The half-life of 26m
F
is 2.2(1) milliseconds; it decays mainly to its ground state of 26
F
or (rarely, via beta-minus decay) to one of high excited states of 26
Ne
with delayed neutron emission.[4]
