Abstract: Benzoxaborole is a series of compounds with five member ring and boron atom. Since the approval of crisaborole and tavaborole by FDA, benzoxaborole gained lots of research interests and become widely used in current drug discovery. Specially, benzoxaborole derivatives were found to exhibit anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-protozoal, anti-tumor and anti-inflammatory activities. Here, we will review the properties of benzoxaborole, structure activity relationships as well as the recent progress in the biological activity of benzoxaborole derivatives.
