furan complex (XIII) is described. This is based on an intramolecular reaction of organic azides with organoboroncompounds. Treatment of the boron cage compoundXIII with iodine and an excess of sodium azide followed by oxidation (H2O2, OH−) affords 7α-hydroxymethyl-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (VII), cyclization of which leads to I in 40% overall yield. Some new boron cage compounds were also isolated

A variety of amine complexes with 1-boraadamatane were synthesized and subsequently evaluated for an antiproliferative effect on CD81-enriched cell lines to provide evidence for binding and activation of CD81. CD81 is a member of the tetraspanin family of membrane proteins found in all cell lineages in the liver. CD81 signals for antiproliferation when bound by antibodies. It is known that the HCV-E2 envelope glycoprotein binds to the CD81 protein. While it is unclear whether virus entry into host cells is directly linked to virus attachment via CD81 for HCV, this step in the viral life cycle has recently proven to be an effective point of attack for other viruses including HIV and rhinoviruses. The aim of the current study concerns the synthesis of amantidine analogues by appending primary amines to 1-boraadamantane to evaluate such compounds for CD81-dependent antiproliferation of CD81-enriched cell lines (astrocyte) vs CD81-deficient cell lines (C6 glioma). If the antiproliferative effect of these amantidine analogues proves to be an effect of binding and activating CD81, then these compounds may have the potential to prevent or treat HCV infections. Each compound's potential for preventive and therapeutic activity stems from the compound's potential to block viral attachment, virus-cell fusion, or virus entry into host cells or to counter potential mechanisms of HCV immune evasion. Out of a library of over 500 compounds, including randomly selected small molecules and rationally designed small molecules, only the 1-boraadamantaneamine compounds and structurally similar analogues display a significant antiproliferative effect on the CD81-enriched astrocytes relative to the CD81-deficient cell lines. In fact, 1-boraadamantane.L-phenylalanine methyl ester complex (5), 1-boraadamantane.ethanolamine complex (8), and (S)-2-[(adamantane-1-carbonyl)amino]-3-phenylpropionic acid (15) show a dose-dependent, astrocyte-selective antiproliferative activity in the concentration range 0.1-10 muM. This is consistent with the binding and activation of CD81 and represents a 2-fold improvement compared to the clinically prescribed anti-HCV agent, amantidine, in the same concentration range. Consequently, the 1-boraadamantaneamine derivatives present a promising lead in the development of small molecules with potential to bind to CD81 and treat HCV infections.

1-Boraadamantane-THF (3) reacts with I equiv of dimethylsulfoxonium methylide (4) to afford a monohomologated product. The polyhomologation of 1-boraadamantane-THF by ylide 4 followed by oxidative cleavage generates star polymethylene polymers incorporating a cyclohexane core. However, only one-third of the initiators lead to product formation, resulting in an observed degree of polymerization three times higher than expected. The polyhomologation of 3 was found to contain branch points after the fourth and fifth methylene insertions. At the branch points, the propagating species either terminate in tricyclic trialkylborane cages with collapsed, pyramidal inverted boron centers that are unreactive toward ylide or they continue in uninterrupted polymerization and eventually result in the formation of giant "tube-like" structures such as 5.
