Abstract
Direct synthesis of oxonium derivatives of the dodecahydro-closo-dodecabora te anion is described and the reaction mechanism is discussed. Various deri vatives of the [B12H12](2-) anion containing hydroxyl, amine, acid, and ami no acid functions were prepared by ring opening reactions of the tetramethy lene oxonium derivative [B12H11O(CH2)(4)](-) with different nucleophiles. T his approach is suitable for the development of compounds to be used in tum our selective boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) and as linkers for the a ttachment of radioactive halogen labels for radioimmunodetection and radioi mmunotherapy.
