Synthesis and evaluation as MRI probe of the trifluoromethylated p-boronophenylalanine and its alcohol derivative
摘要:
Boron-neutron capture therapy (BNCT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are quite attractive techniques for treatment and diagnosis of cancer, respectively. In order to develop practical tools for BNCT and MRI, novel compounds containing both the trifluoromethyl group and B-10 atom in a single molecule were designed. In the present study, p-boronophenylalanine and p-boronophenylalaninol with the trifluoromethyl group were synthesized, and F-19 NMR measurements of these compounds were carried out.
