Hydroxylamine reaction with amino acid

Although the simplest route to prepare hydroxamic acid derivatives remains the reaction of hydroxylamine with acid chlorides, this last method cannot be apphed to all Af-protected-a-amino acids. The synthesis of Fmoc-protected amino acid hydroxamates represents the only exception to this rule . In fact, Fmoc-amino acid hydroxamates 98 can be synthesized by the acylation of hydroxylamine using Fmoc-amino acid chlorides 97 in the presence of MgO (Scheme 52). The route is simple, efficient, and affords good yields of products. 

Haptens containing amino groups can be coupled directly to carriers containing carboxyl groups, or the amino group can be converted to a carboxylic acid by reaction with succinic anhydride. - When a keto or an aldehyde group is present in the hapten, it can be converted to a carboxyl via reaction with 0-(carboxymethyl)hydroxylamine or with hydrazides. Haptens containing double bonds can be made to react directly with mer-captoacetic or mercaptopropionic acid, or a two-step reaction may be performed bromination followed by reaction with mercaptocarboxylic acid. ... 

A regioselective synthesis of 2-amino[l, 2,4]triazinones 708 was reported (82JHC1583 83JHC1671) by reaction of 706 with 0-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-hydroxylamine 707 as an amino transfer agent. Subsequent reaction of 708 with ammonia or amines, followed by ring closure with formic acid, provided 709. 

Knobler Y, Bittner S, Frankel M (1964) Reaction of N-carboxy-alpha-amino-acid anhydrides with hydrochlorides of hydroxylamine O-alkylhydroxylamines + amines syntheses of amino-hydroxamic acids amido-oxy-peptides + alpha-amino-acid amides. J Chem Soc 3941... 

Similarly, the rate of inhibition of phosphoenzyme formation by diethylpyrocarbonate (DEPC) was much slower than the loss of ATPase activity [368], Even when the reaction approached completion with more than 90% inhibition of ATP hydrolysis, about 70% of the Ca -ATPase could still be phosphorylated by ATP (2.3nmoles of E P/mg protein). The remaining 30% of E P formation and the corresponding ATPase activity was not reactivated by hydroxylamine treatment, suggesting some side reaction with other amino acids, presumably lysine. When the reaction of the DEPC-modified ATPase with P-ATP was quenched by histidine buffer (pH 7.8) the P-phosphoenzyme was found to be exceptionally stable under the same conditions where the phosphoenzyme formed by the native ATPase underwent rapid hydrolysis [368]. The nearly normal phosphorylation of the DEPC-trea-ted enzyme by P-ATP implies that the ATP binding site is not affected by the modification, and the inhibition of ATPase activity is due to inhibition of the hydrolysis of the phosphoenzyme intermediate [368]. This is in contrast to an earlier report by Tenu et al. [367], that attributed the inhibition of ATPase activity by... 

Most of the synthetic approaches toward this ring system utilize N-amino pyridinium salts functionalized at the a-position with a carbonyl group. Thus, the amination of 2-(l,3-dioxolan-2-yl)pyridine with tosyl-hydroxylamine gave 78, whose reaction with urea in the presence of boron trifluoride-acetic acid gave 79, which gave the thermally unstable... 

Nagai et al. carried out various transformations with camphor-fused amino[l,2,4]triazine 191 <1998JHC293> (Scheme 39). Reaction of 191 with chlorocarbonylsulfenyl chloride yielded the fused thiadiazolone 192 in high yield (83%). The same starting compound also proved to be suitable for the synthesis of the fused triazole derivative 193. To this end, 191 was first subjected to two subsequent transformations first by dimethylformamide dimethylacetal followed by treatment with hydroxylamine hydrochloride to give an Ar-hydroxyamidine 193 in 90% overall yield, and then this compound was treated with polyphosphoric acid to yield the fused triazole product 194 in 92% yield. 

Axenrod and co-workers reported a synthesis of TNAZ (18) starting from 3-amino-l,2-propanediol (28). Treatment of (28) with two equivalents of p-toluenesulfonyl chloride in the presence of pyridine yields the ditosylate (29), which on further protection as a TBS derivative, followed by treatment with lithium hydride in THF, induces ring closure to the azetidine (31) in excellent yield. Removal of the TBS protecting group from (31) with acetic acid at elevated temperature is followed by oxidation of the alcohol (32) to the ketone (33). Treatment of the ketone (33) with hydroxylamine hydrochloride in aqueous sodium acetate yields the oxime (34). The synthesis of TNAZ (18) is completed on treatment of the oxime (34) with pure nitric acid in methylene chloride, a reaction leading to oxidation-nitration of the oxime group to em-dinitro functionality and nitrolysis of the A-tosyl bond. This synthesis provides TNAZ in yields of 17-21 % over the seven steps. 

Benkovic and co-workers also isolated spirocyclic 2-amino-4(5/7)-oxazolones during their studies on pterin-dependent amino acid hydroxylases (Scheme 6.24). Reaction of 91 with 0-methyl hydroxylamine or semicarbazide at pH 4.8 yielded 92a and 92b, respectively. The authors showed that 92 does not simply result from reaction of the corresponding oxazolidinedione with either reagent. Further, by using H2 0 as the solvent they demonstrated that there was no incorporation into the product. Two different but precedented mechanisms were proposed to account for this rearrangement. The stereochemistry of 92b was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray. 

The dibasic side chain at position 7 can be alternatively provided by a substituted amino alkyl pyrrolidine. Preparation of that diamine in chiral form starts with the extension of the ester function in pyrrolidone (46-1) by aldol condensation with ethyl acetate (46-2). Acid hydrolysis of the (3-ketoester leads to the free acid that then decarboxylates to form an acetyl group (46-3). The carbonyl group is next converted to an amine by sequential reaction with hydroxylamine to form the oxime, followed by catalytic hydrogenation. The desired isomer (46-4) is then separated... 

In a closely related reaction, l-amino-2-chloropyridinium mesylate is treated with hydroxylamine, and the intermediate hydroxylamine is cyclized by formic acid or by trifluoroacetic anhydride to give the TV-oxides 39.52...
