1-Carboranyl-3-(2-methylaziridino)-2-propanol. Synthesis, selective uptake by B-16 melanoma, and selective cytotoxicity toward cancer cells

Abstract
1-Carboranyl-3-(2-methylaziridino)-2-propanol (MACB) was prepared from the reaction of 1-carboranyl-2,3-epoxypropane with metalated methylaziridines having copper [Cu(CN)Li2]1/2 or lead (PbBu3) as the metal. MACB exhibited relatively high growth inhibition toward some cancer cells, and selective uptake of MACB by B-16 melanoma was accomplished.
