Abstract
Synthetic nucleosides (e.g., 5‐fluorouracil, 6‐mercaptopurine) are used extensively as antineoplastic drugs. Recent research in boron chemistry has lead to the development of a series of amine‐boranes that possess significant antineoplastic activity. The agents may also be useful in boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT), therefore giving the compounds a dual mechanism of cytotoxic action. Herein is a report of the synthesis of one of the more active boronated nucleosides, 2′‐deoxycytidine‐^3^N‐cyanoborane with a ^14^C‐label in the 2‐position of the pyrimidine ring.
