Abstract
Conjugates of polyhedral boron hydrides with deoxyadenosine were synthesized by the opening of cyclic oxonium derivatives of closo-dodecaborate and cobalt bis(1,2-dicarbollide) with 2′-deoxyadenosine derivatives containing a nucleophilic group in the substituent at C(8). Biological studies of the derivatives obtained for cytotoxicity revealed that the derivatives based on closo-dodecaborate did not exhibit cytotoxicity. The conjugates obtained can be used in further biological trials as potential agents for boron neutron capture therapy of cancer.
