Abstract

The first examples of α-amino boronate complexes stabilized by amino cyanoborane complexation were tested as trypsin and chymotrypsin inhibitors, and they showed moderate inhibition. The structure of compound 1 that contains two different boron atoms reveals that the geometry around the boron atom in the cyano group is tetrahedral, whereas a trigonal planar geometry exists around the boron atom attached to two oxygen atoms and a carbon atom.
