Abstract

Cyanuric chloride has been used as a scaffold for the synthesis of potential agents for BNCT containing a carborane cluster, a sugar moiety as hydrophilic arm and an amino acid for the conjugation with bioactive molecules; this approach is, in principle, particularly suitable for a combinatorial approach.

Key words

carborane cluster - glycosides - amino acids - boron - medicinal chemistry

<A NAME="RG35303ST-12">12</A> It is well known that the presence of the carboranyl moiety has a strong electron withdrawing effect, which induces a deactivation of the amine nucleofilicity. See e.g.: Oliva JM. Viñas C. J. Mol. Struct. 2000, 556: 33 ; and references cited therein
