Palladium(II)-induced selective B(4)-H activation of an o-carboranylthioamide has been developed. A tetranuclear palladium(II) complex has been obtained in high yield with excellent regioselectivity. DFT calculations have confirmed that the B(4)-borometalate is lower in energy than the corresponding B(3)-borometalate. The product

Poly(DL-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) has been widely used and studied because of its biocompatibility and biodegradability. Recently, the usefulness of nanoparticles using poly(L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLLGA) having a higher glass transition temperature than PLGA was suggested. In this study, we investigated the availability of

Based on the promise of liposomes as convenient vehicles for the transport of boronated agents for the boron neutron capture therapy (BCNT) of cancer, this paper reports a method for the formulation and characterisation of stable o-carborane-loaded liposomes (ca. 80-100 nm)
