A reduction of various aryl, alkyl, and α,β-unsaturated amides with phenylsilane, catalysed by a borinic acid, is reported. The unprecedented reaction was carried out under very mild conditions and led to useful amines. Furthermore, the reaction tolerates a variety of functional groups. Initial investigations implicated that an intermediate diarylhydroborane is involved in the reaction mechanism.

Various protecting groups have been developed for boronic acids, mostly based on diols. Alternatives include trifluoroborates and amine complexes, which offer easier synthesis and release under milder conditions. We present here a new strategy involving photocleavable protecting groups for boronic and borinic acids, based on the 2-nitrobenzyl motif.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigated the efficacy and resistance mechanisms of cefiderocol and new β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combinations against strains of Enterobacterales producing multiple carbapenemases, specifically focusing on clinical samples from Spanish hospitals collected between 2017 and 2022.
  • The analysis involved 57 isolates, where minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values were determined for various antibiotics, and whole-genome sequencing was utilized to identify genetic resistance factors.
  • Ceftazidime/avibactam, imipenem/relebactam, and meropenem/vaborbactam showed the least activity, while combinations like aztreonam/avibactam and cefepime/zidebactam were

Taniborbactam (formerly VNRX-5133) is a novel, investigational boronic acid β-lactamase inhibitor. The combination of cefepime (FEP) with taniborbactam is active against carrying class A, B, C, and/or D enzymes. We assessed the activity of FEP-taniborbactam against clinical strains carrying ( = 50, 100%), of which 78% harbored at least one extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL).

Objectives: Taniborbactam is a boronate-based β-lactamase inhibitor in clinical development in combination with cefepime.

Methods: Cefepime-taniborbactam and comparator broth microdilution MICs were determined for patient isolates of Enterobacterales (n = 20 725) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (n = 7919) collected in 59 countries from 2018 to 2022. Taniborbactam was tested at a fixed concentration of 4 mg/L.
