In the title hydroxamic acid derivative, C22H16Cl2N2O5, the nitro-substituted benzene ring forms dihedral angles of 26.95 (15) and 87.06 (15)°, with the 4-chloro- and 2-chloro-substituted benzene rings, respectively. The dihedral angle between the chloro-substituted benzene rings is 68.19 (13)°. The O atoms of the nitro group were refined as disordered over two sets of sites with equal occupanc...

A hydroxamic acid (HX) derivative of pectin was prepared, and its potential application to simple colorimetric determination of polysaccharides was investigated. The coupling reaction between pectin and hydroxylamine (HA) progresses in the presence of 1-cyclohexyl-3-(2-morpholinoethyl) carbodiimide metho-p-toluenesulfonate (CMEC). The calibration curve for pectin showed good agreement and the l...

Roots of young seedleings of barnyard grass, maize, rye and wheat secret hydroxamic acids. Their compexes with Fe/III/-ions are available sources of iron. It is possible that the cyclic hydroxamic acids play a role in the alternative mechanism of iron uptake. The hydroxamic acids secreted by barnayard grass roots have an allelopathic role by inhibiting the roots growth of rice. Acta Biol Szeged...

Peroxidative oxidations of chemical carcinogens including N-substituted aryl compounds could result in their metabolic activation because the products react with cellular molecules and lead to cytotoxicity, mutagenicity, and carcinogenicity. In vivo, peroxidative activities are chiefly of neutrophilic leukocyte origin. Neutrophils may be attracted to the site(s) of exposure to carcinogen and, v...

Visible-light copper photocatalysis has recently emerged as a viable technology for building sustainable synthetic processes. To broaden the applications of phosphine-ligated copper(I) complexes, we describe herein an effective metal-organic framework (MOF)-supported photocatalyst multiple iminyl radical-mediated reactions. Due to site isolation, heterogenized photosensitizer significantly high...

Bioorthogonal uncaging strategies have recently emerged as an experimental therapeutic approach to control drug release. Herein we report a novel masking strategy that enables to modulate the metal chelating properties of hydroxamic acid groups by bioorthogonal chemistry using Pd-functionalized resins. This novel approach allowed to devise an inactive precursor of the histone deacetylase inhibi...
