The general structure of a hydroxamic acid. In organic chemistry, hydroxamic acids are a class of organic compounds having a general formula R−C(=O)−N(−OH)−R' bearing the functional group −C(=O)−N(−OH)−, where R and R' are typically organyl groups (e.g., alkyl or aryl) or hydrogen.
An ester of a carboxylic acid.R stands for any group (typically hydrogen or organyl) and R ′ stands for any organyl group.. In chemistry, an ester is a compound derived from an acid (organic or inorganic) in which the hydrogen atom (H) of at least one acidic hydroxyl group (−OH) of that acid is replaced by an organyl group (R ′).

Enols, hydroxamic acids, oximes, and sulfinic acids give positive results as well. [1] The bromine test is useful to confirm the result, although modern spectroscopic techniques (e.g. NMR and IR spectroscopy) are far superior in determining the identity of the unknown.
Hadacidin is the simplest known naturally occurring hydroxamic acid. The hydroxylamino group is frequently donated by a hydroxylamino acid such as 8-N-hydroxyornithine of the siderochromes. This compound, first isolated and characterized by Kaczka et al. in 1962, [2] seemed well suited for a study of the route of hydroxamic acid biosynthesis.
Vorinostat , [3] also known as suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (suberoyl+anilide+hydroxamic acid abbreviated as SAHA), is a member of a larger class of compounds that inhibit histone deacetylases (HDAC). Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDI) have a broad spectrum of epigenetic activities.
The mechanism below begins with an O-acylated hydroxamic acid derivative that is treated with base to form an isocyanate that generates an amine and CO 2 gas in the presence of H 2 O. The hydroxamic acid derivative is first converted to its conjugate base by abstraction of a hydrogen by a base.
Hydroxylammonium chloride is a chemical compound with the formula [NH 3 OH] + Cl −.It is the hydrochloric acid salt of hydroxylamine (NH 2 OH).Hydroxylamine is a biological intermediate in nitrification (biological oxidation of ammonia with oxygen into nitrite) and in anammox (biological oxidation of nitrite and ammonium into dinitrogen gas) which are important in the nitrogen cycle in soil ...
