Synthesis of a novel azobenzene-based trihydroxamate siderophore and photoregulation of its ferric complex structure

In order to develop an artificial photoresponsive siderophore by utilizing the photo-isomerization of an azobenzene group, a novel trihydroxamate siderophore based on an azobenzene skeleton was synthesized. The 1:1 and 2:2 stoichiometry of the ferric complex can be almost perfectly regulated reversibly by irradiation with UV and visible light, respectively. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Microbial growth regulation using photoresponsive siderophore

A new trihydroxamate siderophore containing a reversibly cis / trans-controllable azobenzene framework has been examined for biological activity with Aureobacterium flavescens. The cis-Fe(III)-complex in monomeric form shows a remarkable activity comparable to ferrioxamine B, a natural siderophore, but no activity is observed with the trans-Fe(III)-complex in dimeric form.
