Abstract

The title compound, C25H31BF2N2O, is a potential boron tracedrug in boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT), in which the B atom adopts a distorted BN2F2 tetra-hedral geometry: it is soluble in dimethyl sulfoxide, di-methyl-formamide and methanol. The pyrrolyl-idene-methyl-pyrrole triple fused ring system is almost planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.031 Å) and subtends a dihedral angle of 47.09 (5)° with the plane of the pendant phenol ring. The phenol -OH group is blocked from forming hydrogen bonds by the adjacent bulky tert-butyl groups. In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairs of very weak C-H⋯F inter-actions generate R 2 (2)(22) loops.

Keywords: boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT); boron tracedrug; crystal structure
