The general structure of a hydroxamic acid

In organic chemistry, hydroxamic acids are a class of organic compounds having a general formula Шаблон:Chem2 bearing the functional group Шаблон:Chem2, where R and R' are typically organyl groups (e.g., alkyl or aryl) or hydrogen. They are amides (Шаблон:Chem2) wherein the nitrogen atom has a hydroxyl (Шаблон:Chem2) substituent. They are often used as metal chelators.[1]

Common example of hydroxamic acid is aceto-N-methylhydroxamic acid (Шаблон:Chem2). Some uncommon examples of hydroxamic acids are formo-N-chlorohydroxamic acid (Шаблон:Chem2) and chloroformo-N-methylhydroxamic acid (Шаблон:Chem2).

Synthesis and reactions

Hydroxamic acids are usually prepared from either esters or acid chlorides by a reaction with hydroxylamine salts. For the synthesis of benzohydroxamic acid (Шаблон:Chem2 or Шаблон:Chem2, where Ph is phenyl group), the overall equation is:[2]

Hydroxamic acids can also be synthesized from aldehydes and N-sulfonylhydroxylamine via the Angeli-Rimini reaction.[3] Alternatively, molybdenum oxide diperoxide oxidizes trimethylsilated amides to hydroxamic acids, although yields are only about 50%.[4] In a variation on the Nef reaction, primary nitro compounds kept in an acidic solution (to minimize the nitronate tautomer) hydrolyze to a hydroxamic acid.[5]

A well-known reaction of hydroxamic acid esters is the Lossen rearrangement.[6]

Coordination chemistry and biochemistry

The conjugate base of hydroxamic acids forms is called a hydroxamate. Deprotonation occurs at the Шаблон:Chem2 group, with the hydrogen atom being removed, resulting in a hydroxamate anion Шаблон:Chem2. The resulting conjugate base presents the metal with an anionic, conjugated O,O chelating ligand. Many hydroxamic acids and many iron hydroxamates have been isolated from natural sources.[8]

They function as ligands, usually for iron.[9] Nature has evolved families of hydroxamic acids to function as iron-binding compounds (siderophores) in bacteria. They extract iron(III) from otherwise insoluble sources (rust, minerals, etc.). The resulting complexes are transported into the cell, where the iron is extracted and utilized metabolically.[10]

Ligands derived from hydroxamic acid and thiohydroxamic acid (a hydroxamic acid where one or both oxygens in the Шаблон:Chem2 functional group are replaced by sulfur) also form strong complexes with lead(II).[11]

Other uses and occurrences

Hydroxamic acids are used extensively in flotation of rare earth minerals during the concentration and extraction of ores to be subjected to further processing.[12][13]

Some hydroxamic acids (e.g. vorinostat, belinostat, panobinostat, and trichostatin A) are HDAC inhibitors with anti-cancer properties. Fosmidomycin is a natural hydroxamic acid inhibitor of 1-deoxy-D-xylulose-5-phosphate reductoisomerase (DXP reductoisomerase). Hydroxamic acids have also been investigated for reprocessing of irradiated fuel.Шаблон:Citation needed
