Boron compound completing reagents, intermediate reagents of those reagents and methods of synthesizing these reagents. These reagents, including those shown as General Formula CII may be used, after further reactions described herein, to complex with boronic compounds, such as phenylboronic acid or derivatives thereof. ##STR1## In one embodiment, group Z comprises a spacer selected from a saturated or unsaturated chain up to about 0 to 6 carbon equivalents in length, an unbranched saturated or unsaturated chain of from about 6 to 18 carbon equivalents in length with at least one of intermediate amide and disulfide moieties, and a polyethylene glycol chain of from 3 to 12 carbon equivalents in length; group R.sub.2 is one of an alkyl and a methylene with an electronegative moiety; and BAS is a biologically active species.

Boronic compound complexing reagents and highly stable complexes

Boron compound complexing reagents, boron compound complexes, and methods of synthesizing these reagents and complexes are disclosed. These reagents and complexes include those shown in General Formula IV and General Formula VI. In one embodiment, the reagent of General Formula IV may be used to form a complex with a boron compound, such as a complex shown in General Formula VI. ##STR1## In one embodiment, group Z comprises a spacer selected from a saturated or unsaturated chain of up to about 6 carbon equivalents in length, an unbranched saturated or unsaturated chain of from about 6 to 18 carbon equivalents in length with at least one of intermediate amide or disulfide moieties, and a polyethylene glycol chain of from about 3 to 12 carbon equivalents in length; group R.sub.3 is selected from one of an H, an alkyl, and a methylene or ethylene moiety with an electronegative substituent; and BAS and BAS* are biologically active species.
