Abstract: Theoretical studies on the electronic structures of cascade polyolattached p-dihydroxyborylphe nylalanine(BPA) and its derivatives BPA(OH), BPA(OH)2, BPA(OH)4 were carried out by using the density functional theory(DFT) method. The calculations show that the HOMO and LUMO of BPA are located at the
benzene ring. The analyses of the frontier orbitals reveal that C, N and O atoms,
which are located at the coalescent location between polyols and BPA matrix,
are main active sites of BPA derivatives. Compared with BPA, it seems, that the
HOMO feature is one of main factors affecting biological properties for the polyol-attached BPA derivatives used in boron neutron capture therapy(BNCT) tests.

Key words: BPA, Polyhydroxy derivative, Boron neutron capture therapy, Electronic structure,
