Abstract
Upon bacterial infection, one of the defense mechanisms of the host is the withdrawal of essential metal ions, in particular iron, which leads to "nutritional immunity". However, bacteria have evolved strategies to overcome iron starvation, for example, by stealing iron from the host or other bacteria through specific iron chelators with high binding affinity. Fortunately, these complex interactions between the host and pathogen that lead to metal homeostasis provide several opportunities for interception and, thus, allow the development of novel antibacterial compounds. This Review focuses on iron, discusses recent highlights, and gives some future perspectives which are relevant in the fight against antibiotic resistance.

Abstract
Catechols are found in nature taking part in a remarkably broad scope of biochemical processes and functions. Though not exclusively, such versatility may be traced back to several properties uniquely found together in the o-dihydroxyaryl chemical function; namely, its ability to establish reversible equilibria at moderate redox potentials and pHs and to irreversibly cross-link through complex oxidation mechanisms; its excellent chelating properties, greatly exemplified by, but by no means exclusive, to the binding of Fe(3+); and the diverse modes of interaction of the vicinal hydroxyl groups with all kinds of surfaces of remarkably different chemical and physical nature. Thanks to this diversity, catechols can be found either as simple molecular systems, forming part of supramolacular structures, coordinated to different metal ions or as macromolecules mostly arising from polymerization mechanisms through covalent bonds. Such versatility has allowed catechols to participate in several natural processes and functions that range from the adhesive properties of marine organisms to the storage of some transition metal ions. As a result of such an astonishing range of functionalities, catechol-based systems have in recent years been subject to intense research, aimed at mimicking these natural systems in order to develop new functional materials and coatings. A comprehensive review of these studies is discussed in this paper.

Abstract
Synthetic approaches to mixed ligand chelators on readily available t-butylphenol-formaldehyde oligomer, PFO, scaffolds were examined. In a promising approach, tris and tetraphenol oligomers were selectively mono or di protected using t-butyldiphenyl silyl chloride. The utility of these protected intermediates to prepare representative mixed PFO chelators, carrying ligands such as hydroxamic acid, 3,2-hydroxypyridinones and others was then demonstrated. The introduction of the ligand tethers onto the phenolic scaffold can be done sequentially under relatively mild conditions that tolerate the presence of other sensitive ligand groups. The differential reactivity of the disilyl derivative 20b, allowed stepwise introduction of two different ligands on the internal phenolic positions. This enabled the introduction of three different ligand groups of choice onto the tetra phenol platform.

Abstract
In this study we report the isolation, structure elucidation, and biosynthesis of mirubactin (1), a siderophore containing an unprecedented chemical functionality in natural products, namely, an O-acyl hydroxamic acid ester. Mirubactin represents the first siderophore isolated from the genus Actinosynnema and the first natural product produced by Actinosynnema mirum whose biosynthetic gene cluster could be identified. Structure elucidation was accomplished through a combination of spectroscopic (NMR, IR, and UV/vis) and mass spectrometric methods and revealed the presence of an unusual ester bond between the δ-N-hydroxyl group of δ-N-formyl-δ-N-hydroxyornithine and a 2,3-dihydroxybenzoate moiety. Bioinformatic analysis of the A. mirum genome and subsequent biochemical characterization of the putative biosynthetic machinery identified the gene cluster responsible for mirubactin assembly. The proposed biosynthesis of mirubactin comprises the iterative use of a stand-alone carrier-protein-bound substrate, as well as an ester-bond-forming step catalyzed by a C-terminal condensation domain, thus revealing an interesting system for further biochemical studies to gain a deeper understanding of nonribosomal peptide synthetase-catalyzed siderophore biosynthesis.

Abstract
Several analogues of vanchrobactin, a catechol siderophore isolated from the bacterial fish pathogen Vibrio anguillarum serotype O2 strain RV22, have been synthesized. The biological evaluation of these novel compounds showed that most of them are active as siderophores, as determined by growth promotion assays using the producer strain, as well as V. anguillarum serotype O1, Salmonella enterica, and Erwinia chrysanthemi. These compounds also gave a positive chrome azurol-S (CAS) test. On the basis of these results, we were able to deduce some structure-activity relationships. Furthermore, we found an analogue with siderophore activity that has appropriate functionality (an amino group) for use as an antibiotic vector to be employed in a "Trojan horse strategy".
