1 Introduction
Hydroxamic acids are one of the most extensively studied chemical compounds due
to their tremendous applications in various fields. These are a class of chemicals in
which a hydroxylamine is inserted into a carboxylic acid. Structure of hydroxamic
Various types of hydroxamic acids have been reported so far by various researchers
in the past. Different hydroxamic acids have different properties which are due to
the type of acyl group and the length of carbon chain. Depending upon the length of
carbon chain, hydroxamic acids can be classified as follows:
(a) Short-chain hydroxamic acids
Short-chain hydroxamic acids have a carbon chain of C2–C3. These are easily
soluble in water, but some of the hydroxamic acids with very high chelating
properties are used in resin synthesis, e.g., acetohydroxamic acid and
propionohydroxamic acid (Sharma et al. 2012).

Amidase exhibit “Bi-bi Ping-Pong” mechanism for the acyl transfer activity.
Amides first react with the enzyme to give acyl-enzyme complexes (E–S com-
plexes) which subsequently leads to formation of carboxylic acids. If a strong

nucleophilic agent like hydroxylamine is present instead of water (in case of acyl
transfer activity) then its interaction with E–S complex results in the production
hydroxamic acids. After the formation of the product, the enzyme retains its
original state and is ready to convert another molecule of amide and hydroxylamine
to hydroxamic acid (Pandey et al. 2011; Sharma et al. 2012).

Histone deacetylase (EC 3.5.1.98, HDAC) are a class of enzymes that eliminate the
acetyl groups from the histone proteins having an ε-N-acetyl lysine amino acid.
This removal of acetyl group allowed DNA strand to wrap histone more tightly. The
tight wrapping of histone by DNA regulates acetylation and deacetylation of this
protein which finally controls the overall expression of DNA. Any change in the
expression and mutations in the gene of HDACs leads to development of tumor due
to uncontrolled cell proliferation, cell cycle, and apoptosis. HDACs are therefore
one of the key targets for treating cancerous growth by developing potent HDAC
inhibitors (Marks et al. 2001; Hanessian et al. 2007; Marks and Breslow 2007;
Grassadonia et al. 2013; Giannini et al. 2015). These inhibitors block the active sites
of HDAC and lead to aggregation of acetylated histones which finally suppress the
tumor growth and inhibit cell proliferation and programmed cell death (Lu et al.
2005; Anandan et al. 2007).

Matrix metalloproteinase (MMPs) are the enzymes that contain zinc ions in their
pocket site. These enzymes are capable of removing the cell surface receptors,
release of apoptotic ligands, and cytokine inactivation. Overexpression and activa-
tion of MMPs results in a number of ailments including arthritis, periodontal
disease, multiple sclerosis, and metastasis that leads to various types of cancers.
Hydroxamic acid-based MMP inhibitors strongly inhibit the activity of tumor cells
and prevent their proliferation. Structure-based design suggests that hydroxamate-
based MMP inhibitors suppress the metabolism and minimize the MMP activity
(Van Lint and Libert 2007).

Urease enzymes catalyze the breakdown of urea to ammonia and carbamic acid,
which is further hydrolyzed to carbon dioxide and ammonia. This hydrolysis
ultimately increases the pH and produces other ill effects on human and animal
systems. Hydroxamic acids play a very significant role by inhibiting the urease
activity. The mode of the inhibition involves coordination of the inhibitor with the
nickel center in the enzyme. Acetohydroxamic acid binds to the active pocket of
urease and inhibits its activity completely which is quite evident with SAR analysis.
Based on this model, a number of heterocyclic hydroxamic acid derivatives have
been designed and synthesized with greater binding stability than the dipeptide
derivatives of hydroxamic acid (Muri et al. 2002).

The enzyme 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) is one of the key enzymes for the synthesis of
leukotrienes (LTs). 5-LO enzyme converts arachidonic acid into 5-hydroperoxy-
6,8,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid (5-HPETE), which is further converted to a series
of highly potent leukotrienes by various metabolic reactions and finally triggers the
allergic reactions. The peptidoleukotrienes like LTC4, LTD4, and LTE4 are slow-
reacting substances of anaphylaxis. These peptidoleukotrienes are responsible for
bronchial asthma, inflammation, tissue injury, liver diseases, and shock. Among
various inhibitors, iron chelators (hydroxamic acid) play an important role in
preventing the activation of LTs. These compounds were designed with the expec-
tation that their functional groups might chelate iron and therefore inhibit the
enzyme (Van Lint and Libert 2007).
provide a new target to destroy such bacteria (Apfel et al. 2000). Therefore, in order
to develop new PDF inhibitor moieties, new strategies are developed and new
chemical must be synthesized. PDF is a potent target for antibacterial drug design
because (1) the gene linked with this activity is important to bacterial growth
in vitro, (2) it is present in all bacteria, and (3) the enzyme’s pocket has close
resemblance with various metallohydrolases (Chen et al. 2000). Since PDF is a
metallohydrolase, so hydroxamic acid is a potential inhibitor of this enzyme.
Actinonin is a known hydroxamate-containing inhibitor of various
metallohydrolases. The hydroxamate group of actinonin strongly acts as the che-
lating group that binds metal ion of the enzyme and inhibit its activity (Jayasekera
et al. 2000; Wei et al. 2000).
Hydroxamic acids have shown a lethal impact on the survival and reproduction of
aphids. Different varieties of cereal like rye, wheat, and maize produce different
types of hydroxamic acids that inhibit the growth of aphid Metopolophium
dirhodum. It has been found that the survival rate of aphids fed with artificial
DIMBOA was less than aphids fed with diets lacking DIMBOA. A similar relation
between high hydroxamic acid levels in maize and resistance to the European corn
borer Ostrinia nubilalis has also been reported (Copaj et al. 2006).
180 B.R. Kant et al.
Hydroxamic acids have also been extensively investigated for their possible use in
wastewater treatment and nuclear technology to evolve new methods to eliminate
contaminating metal ions. This is a new but very promising approach to clean the
wastewater contaminated with heavy metal ions (Haron et al. 2012).
Hydroxamic acids play a very important role in analytical chemistry as reagents for
gravimetric and spectrophotometric analysis of metal ions (Hassan et al. 2011).
Besides their ability to form complex with metal ions, long-chain hydroxamic acids
are also used as surfactants in the detergent industry (Jahangirian et al. 2011).
