Synthesis of a boronated amino acid as a potential neutron therapy agent: 1-amino-3-[(dihydroxyboryl)ethyl]cyclobutanecarboxylic acid
摘要:
A novel boronated aminocyclobutanecarboxylic acid was synthesized in 10 steps for potential use in neutron capture therapy. The molecule was modeled after the unnatural amino acid 1-aminocyclobutanecarboxylic acid, which has shown high uptake in brain tumors. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A direct hydroboration of alkene-containing hydantoins using diisopinocampheylborane has been developed that can be used to prepare boronated amino acids. The method is successful because boronic acids are stable to the conditions employed for hydrolyzing hydantoins.
