- Transketolase Catalyzed Synthesis of N-Aryl Hydroxamic Acids
-
Hydroxamic acids are metal-chelating compounds that show important biological activity including anti-tumor effects. We have recently engineered the transketolase from Geobacillus stearothermopilus (TKgst) to convert benzaldehyde as a non-natur

- Catalyst-free generation of acyl radicals induced by visible light in water to construct C-N bonds
-
We describe herein a catalyst-free and redox-neutral photochemical strategy for the direct generation of acyl radicals from α-diketones, and its selective conversion of nitrosoarenes to hydroxyamides or amides with AcOH or NaCl as an additive. The reaction was carried out under mild conditions in water with purple LEDs as the light source. A broad scope of substrates was demonstrated. Mechanistic experiments indicate that α-diketones cleave to give acyl radicals, with hydroxyamides being further reduced to amides.

- Rhodium(III)-catalyzed internal oxidative coupling of N-hydroxyanilides with alkenes via C-H activation
-
Abstract Described herein is an efficient new method for ortho-olefination of anilides in the presence of AgSbF6 and NaOAc via rhodium(III)-catalyzed internal oxidative C-H bond activation based on hydroxyl as directing and oxidative group. A range of alkenes and functional groups on acetanilides is supported and a possible mechanism is proposed according to the experimental results.

- N-Arylhydroxamic Acids: Reaction of Nitroso Aromatics with α-Oxo Acids
-
A practical and high-yielding route to N-arylhydroxamic acids from nitroso aromatics and α-oxo acids 1a-d is desctibed.In aqueous and acetic acid containing media, the reactions exhibit second-order reaction kinetics overall.In the aqueous medium, the rate constant (kobsd) for N-phenylacetohydroxamic acid (8b) formation increased with increasing +>, though there were some side pathways involving azoxybenzene formation.In general, kobsd for the reaction in the acetic acid containing medium was about one-tenth of that in HCl at pH 0.6.On a preparative scale, acetic acid is better than HCl, in that both reactants showed sufficient solubilities in acetic acid for a high reaction velocity and no side reaction was detected.With this method, the proximate carcinogens, N-(4-biphenylyl)acetohydroxamic acid (12b) and N-(2-fluorenyl)acetohydroxamic acid (13b), could be easily prepared.Under both conditions, the order of kobsd for the reactions of nitrosobenzene (2) with α-oxo acids 1a-d was glyoxylic (1a) > pyruvic (1b) 2-oxobutyric (1c) > benzoylformic (1d) acid.For the reactions of substituted nitrosobenzenes 3-6 with pyruvic acid (1b), the order of kobsd was p-phenyl (6) > unsubstituted (2) > p-chloro (5) > m-chloro (4) >> o-chloro (3) nitrosobenzene.The negative Hammett reaction constant value obtained indicates that an electron-donating substituent is preferable for the reaction.The reaction mechanism and other factors affecting N-arylhydroxamic acid formation are also descussed.

- Novel Reactions: Part I - Facile Synthesis of Substituted ortho-Chloranilines from Nitrobenzene Derivatives
-
N-Substituted benzo and acetohydroxamic acids (5), prepared from N-arylhydroxylamines and benzoyl or acetyl chloride, react readily with thionyl chloride at low temperature to give ortho-chloroanilide derivatives (6) in good yield.The latter (6) on hydrolysis give ortho-chloroanilines (10).Since the N-arylhydroxylamines are obtained from nitroarenes by partial reduction, the overall reaction amounts to the preparation of 10 from nitroarenes.
