This review covers the application of cycloaddition reactions in forming the boron-containing compounds such as symmetric star-shaped boron-enriched dendritic molecules, nano-structured boron materials and aromatic boronic esters. The resulting boron compounds are potentially important reagents for both materials science and medical applications such as in boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) in cancer treatment and as drug delivery agents and synthetic intermediates for carbon-carbon cross-coupling reactions. In addition, the use of boron cage compounds in a number of cycloaddition reactions to synthesize unique aromatic species will be reviewed briefly.

The boranediylation of dihydroxy compounds and exchange reactions involving R-B-O groups of a number of their O-boranediyl derivatives with 18O and 10B labelled triethylboroxines has been investigated. It has been found that in simple 1,2-dihydroxy compounds only the RB group is substituted or exchanged. In hydroxy compounds such as ninhydrin 7 and octahydroxy- cyclobutane 6 both RB and RBO groups are involved. The mechanisms of these exchange reactions arc discussed.
