The synthesis of #drug libraries is key in drug discovery but can be inefficient, especially in small labs. Jiang Weng and colleagues at Sun Yat-Sen University (#Guangzhou #China) propose a reagent-free sulfamide coupling strategy to form bifunctional molecules. This method allows the coupling of acid and amine on a 96-well plate without additives published in the journal Angewandte Chemie.

Experimental #antibiotic kills deadly #superbug, opens whole new class of #drugs
Relatively large molecule clogs a transport system, leading to lethal toxicity. In this case, the new #drug—dubbed #zosurabalpin—fights off the #GramNegative #bacterium carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii, aka CRAB. Though it may sound obscure, it's an opportunistic, invasive #bacteria that often strikes hospitalized and critically ill patients, causing deadly #infections worldwide. https://arstechnica.com/science/2024/01/experimental-antibiotic-reveals-entirely-new-way-to-kill-drug-resistant-bacteria/ -
