Cyclic N,N-dialkoxyamides have been made, for the first time, by hypervalent iodine oxidation of β- and γ-hydroxyhydroxamic esters 17, 19, and 21. The fused γ-lactam products, N-butoxy- and N-benzyloxybenzisoxazolones (22a and 22b), are stable while alicyclic γ-lactam and d-lactam products, 24 and 25, although observable by NMR spectroscopy and ESI-MS are unstable at room temperature, undergoing HERON reactions. The γ-lactam 24 undergoes exclusive ring opening to give a butyl ester-functionalised alkoxynitrene 28. The δ-lactam 25, instead, undergoes a HERON ring contraction to give butyrolactone (27). The structures of model γ- and δ-lactams 6, 7, and 8 have been determined at the B3LYP/6-31G(d) level of theory and the γ-lactams are much more twisted than the acyclic N,Ndimethoxyacetamide (5) resulting in a computed amidicity for 6 of only 25% that of N,N-dimethylacetamide (3). The HERON reactions of N,N-dimethoxyacetamide (5) and alicyclic models 6 and 8 have been modelled computationally. The facile ring opening of 6 (EA=113 kJ mol -1) and ring contraction of 8 (EA=145 kJ mol-1) are predicted well, when compared with the HERON rearrangement of 5 (EA=178 kJ mol-1). CSIRO 2014.

Metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) catalyze the hydrolysis of β-lactams including penicillins, cephalosporins and carbapenems. Starting from benzohydroxamic acid (1) structure-activity studies led to the identification of selective inhibitors of the FEZ-1 MBL, e.g., 2,5-substituted benzophenone hydroxamic acid 17 has a Ki of 6.1 ± 0.7 μM against the FEZ-1 MBL but does not significantly inhibit the IMP-1, BcII, CphA or L1 MBLs.
