Abstract
Several boronic acids were screened for their ability to bind to diols. 3-methoxycarbonyl-5-nitrophenyl boronic acid bound to both a catechol dye as well as fructose with a comparable affinity to that of an ortho-methylamino substituted boronic acid. This work suggests a greater role for appropriately functionalized electron deficient boronic acids in diol and carbohydrate recognition.Entities:
