Diaromatic‐substituted ortho ‐ and meta ‐carboranes were synthesized as mimics of manassantin A. Among the carboranes synthesized, compounds 1 and 2 showed significant inhibition of hypoxia‐induced HIF‐1 transcriptional activity, with IC 50 values of 3.2 and 2.2 μ M , respectively. Compounds 1 and 2 similarly suppressed hypoxia‐induced HIF‐1α accumulation in a concentration‐dependent manner without affecting the expression level of HIF‐1α mRNA. The hypoxia‐induced accumulation and translocation of HIF‐1α into nuclei were not observed in HeLa cells treated with compounds 1 and 2 by immunofluorescence analysis, revealing that the inhibition of hypoxia‐induced HIF‐1 transcriptional activity is induced by compounds 1 and 2 through a degradation pathway of the HIF‐1α protein under hypoxic conditions.
