Within the two-band model of superconductivity, we study the dependence of the critical temperature Tc and of the isotope exponent alpha in the proximity to an electronic topological transition (ETT). The ETT is associated with a 3D-2D crossover of the Fermi surface of one of the two bands: the sigma subband of the diborides. Our results agree with the observed dependence of Tc on Mg content in A_{1-x}Mg_xB_2 (A=Al or Sc), where an enhancement of Tc can be interpreted as due to the proximity to a "shape resonance". Moreover we have calculated a possible variation of the isotope effect on the superconducting critical temperature by tuning the chemical potential.
