Synthesis and Evaluation of Boronated Lysine and Bis(carboranylated) γ‐Amino Acids as Monomers for Peptide Assembly

Abstract

We have synthesized N-Fmoc amino acid derivatives bearing boronated and carboranylated substituents. Thus, a 1,3,2-dioxaborolane subunit has been introduced on the side chain of N α -Fmoc-L-lysine, and a bis(carboranylated) γ-amino acid building block has been prepared. As shown by the prepara-
