Product Description
2-Fluoro-3-methoxyphenylboronic acid is a biochemical compound that could be utilized as a biomaterial or organic/chemical reagent for biomedical research.
2-Fluoro-3-methoxyphenylboronic acid is an organoboron compound with the chemical formula C₇H₈BFO₃ and a molecular weight of 169.95 g/mol. It is an arylboronic acid featuring a fluorine atom at the 2-position and a methoxy group at the 3-position of the benzene ring. The compound is a solid that should be stored at -20°C for long-term stability. It is used as a reactant in regioselective Suzuki coupling reactions, in the preparation of 17-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 inhibitors, and in the preparation of boron esters. It is a biochemical reagent that can be used as a biological material or organic compound for life science related research.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
2-Fluoro-3-methoxyphenylboronic acid does not have a defined biological target as it is a synthetic reagent rather than a pharmacologically active compound. However, it is used in the preparation of 17-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 inhibitors. 17-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 is an enzyme involved in estrogen biosynthesis, and its inhibition is a therapeutic strategy for estrogen-dependent diseases such as breast cancer. The compound's primary function is chemical—serving as a boron source for cross-coupling reactions to synthesize biologically active molecules.
ln Vitro
As a chemical reagent, 2-fluoro-3-methoxyphenylboronic acid exhibits no intrinsic pharmacological activity in vitro. Its utility is demonstrated in regioselective Suzuki coupling reactions and in the preparation of 17-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 inhibitors and boron esters. In cell-based assays, the compound itself is not tested for biological activity. Instead, the products synthesized from this reagent are evaluated for their pharmacological properties. The compound is used exclusively as a chemical intermediate in organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry research.
ln Vivo
2-Fluoro-3-methoxyphenylboronic acid does not exhibit in vivo biological activity as it is not a therapeutic agent. The compound is used as a reagent in the synthesis of 17-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 inhibitors. Any in vivo effects would be associated with the final products synthesized from this intermediate, not with the intermediate itself. The compound is not administered to animals in pharmacological studies and has no known physiological effects. Its role is strictly chemical—providing a versatile fluorinated methoxy-substituted arylboronic acid.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme assays for 2-fluoro-3-methoxyphenylboronic acid derivatives typically involve 17-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 inhibition studies. A standard protocol uses purified enzyme incubated with the substrate estrone and NADPH in the presence of varying concentrations of the test compound. Product formation (estradiol) is measured by HPLC or radiometric methods. IC₅₀ values are calculated from dose-response curves. For Suzuki coupling reactions, typical conditions involve reacting the compound with aryl halides in the presence of a palladium catalyst and a base.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell culture experiments with 2-fluoro-3-methoxyphenylboronic acid derivatives typically involve breast cancer cell lines (e.g., MCF-7, T47D) for studying estrogen-dependent proliferation. Cells are cultured in estrogen-free media and treated with compounds at concentrations ranging from 0.1-100 µM for 24-72 hours. Cell proliferation is assessed using MTT or BrdU incorporation assays. Effects on estrogen receptor signaling are measured by reporter gene assays or Western blotting. The intermediate itself is typically not tested in cellular systems; rather, the final products are evaluated.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies are not conducted with 2-fluoro-3-methoxyphenylboronic acid itself, as it is a research reagent for chemical synthesis. When the compound is used to synthesize 17-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 inhibitors or other drug candidates, those final products undergo standard preclinical evaluation. Typical protocols for drug candidates include pharmacokinetic studies in rodents (oral or intravenous administration, blood sampling for LC-MS/MS analysis), efficacy studies in tumor xenograft models, and toxicology studies. These studies evaluate the safety and efficacy of the final drug molecules.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of 2-fluoro-3-methoxyphenylboronic acid are not characterized as it is not a drug substance. Based on its physicochemical properties (molecular weight 169.95), the compound would be expected to have moderate oral bioavailability if administered. Boronic acids can form reversible covalent adducts with proteins and may have complex pharmacokinetics. The compound would likely undergo metabolism via oxidative deboronation and cytochrome P450-mediated oxidation. However, the compound is not intended for human exposure and has not been evaluated in formal pharmacokinetic studies.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for 2-fluoro-3-methoxyphenylboronic acid are limited as it is a research reagent. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed when handling this compound, including the use of gloves, safety glasses, and working in a fume hood. The compound should be stored at -20°C for long-term stability or at 4°C for up to 2 years. No acute toxicity data are available. The compound is not intended for drug, household, or other uses.
Additional Infomation
2-Fluoro-3-methoxyphenylboronic acid is a versatile building block in medicinal chemistry for the synthesis of 17-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 inhibitors and other bioactive compounds. It is used in regioselective Suzuki coupling reactions and in the preparation of boron esters. The fluorine and methoxy substituents provide handles for further functionalization and modulate the compound's electronic properties. The compound has not undergone clinical trials and is not approved as a pharmaceutical. Its mechanism of action is chemical—serving as a boron source for the synthesis of biologically active molecules.
