With the boronic acid analogue of nitrofurazone, namely, 38, in hand; a sample of nitrofurantoin, nitrofurazone, furazolidone and boronic acid 38 were given to a microbiologist in early 2019 who pledged to evaluate them for their in vivo antibacterial activity; however, at the time of writing this manuscript the results are still awaited. To this end, the in vivo antibacterial evaluation of 38 against a range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria merits a full consideration.
