A simple chiral analysis of amino acid esters by fluorine-19 nuclear magnetic resonance (19F?NMR) through the modified James–Bull method is described. Thus, amino acid ester acid salt was treated with 5-fluoro-2-formylphenylboronic acid and (S)-BINOL in the presence of triethylamine (TEA) and MS4A for 10?minutes. The reaction mixture was analysed by 19F?NMR directly to afford good quantifications.

Chiral 3-substituted benzoxaboroles were designed as carbapenemase inhibitors and efficiently synthesisedviaasymmetric Morita-Baylis-Hillman reaction. Some of the benzoxaboroles were potent inhibitors of clinically relevant carbapenemases and restored the activity of meropenem in bacteria harbouring these enzymes. Crystallographic analyses validate the proposed mechanism of binding to carbapenemases,i.e.in a manner relating to their antibiotic substrates. The results illustrate how combining a structure-based design approach with asymmetric catalysis can efficiently lead to potent β-lactamase inhibitors and provide a starting point to develop drugs combatting carbapenemases.

Boron-containing heterocycles are important in a variety of applications from drug discovery to materials science; therefore a clear understanding of their structure and reactivity is desirable to optimize these functions. Although the boranol (B-OH) unit of boronic acids behaves as a Lewis acid to form a tetravalent trihydroxyborate conjugate base, it has been proposed that pseudoaromatic hemiboronic acids may possess sufficient aromatic character to act as Br?nsted acids and form a boron oxy conjugate base, thereby avoiding the disruption of ring aromaticity that would occur with a tetravalent boronate anion. Until now no firm evidence existed to ascertain the structure of the conjugate base and the aromatic character of the boron-containing ring of hemiboronic "naphthoid"isosteres. Here, these questions are addressed with a combination of experimental, spectroscopic, X-ray crystallographic, and computational studies of a series of model benzoxazaborine and benzodiazaborine naphthoids. Although these hemiboronic heterocycles are unambiguously shown to behave as Lewis acids in aqueous solutions, boraza derivatives possess partial aromaticity provided their nitrogen lone electron pair is sufficiently available to participate in extended delocalization. As demonstrated by dynamic exchange and crossover experiments, these heterocycles are stable in neutral aqueous medium, and their measured pKa values are consistent with the ability of the endocyclic heteroatom substituent to stabilize a partial negative charge in the conjugate base. Altogether, this study corrects previous inaccuracies and provides conclusions regarding the properties of these compounds that are important toward the methodical application of hemiboronic and other boron heterocycles in catalysis, bioconjugation, and medicinal chemistry.
