Conjugates of polyhedral boron compounds with carbohydrates

Abstract

Conjugates of β-lactosylamine derivatives bearing terminal amino groups in aglycon with ortho-carboranylacetic acid were synthesized. Five glycoconjugates with spacers of different length (from 9 to 18 atoms) and hydrophilicity containing di-, tri-, and pentapeptide fragments constructed of glycine and serine residues and spacers incorporating ethylenediamine and tartaric acid or tertiary amine residues were prepared
