Published: November 2004

The reactions of N-hydroxybenzenesulfonamide (Piloty's acid, PA) with a variety of metal oxidants are reported. Either nitric oxide or nitrite is the final reaction product, along with benzenesulfinate and the reduced metal compound. The nitrogen product depends on the oxidation potential of the metal oxidant and its ability to further oxidize NO to nitrite. The observation and preliminary interpretation of unusual kinetic behavior of Piloty's acid as a reductant is also described. Analogues of PA were also prepared and found to show similar reactivity.

Photoactive -hydroxysulfonamides photocaged with the (6-bromo-7-hydroxycoumarin-4-yl)methyl chromophore have been successfully synthesized, and the mechanisms of photodecomposition investigated for two of the compounds. Upon irradiation up to 97% of a diagnostic marker for (H)NO release, sulfinate was observed for the trifluoromethanesulfonamide system. In the absence of a species that reacts rapidly with (H)NO, (H)NO instead reacts with the carbocation intermediate to ultimately generate ()-BHC-oxime and ()-BHC-oxime.

Article Synopsis
  • Nitroxyl (HNO) and its one-electron-reduced form, nitroxide (NO anion), offer unique pharmacological benefits over nitric oxide (NO), but HNO's role in chemical biology is less explored.
  • Current HNO donors like Angeli's salt and Piloty's acid are limited in their applications.
  • A new cobalt nitrosyl complex has been developed that can release HNO/NO in the presence of certain ligands, confirmed through gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy and reactions with known HNO/NO acceptors.

Developing functional nitroxyl (HNO) donors play a significant role in the further exploration of endogenous HNO in biochemistry and pharmacology. In this work, two novel Piloty's acids (SBD-D1 and SBD-D2) were proposed by incorporating benzoxadiazole-based fluorophores, in order to achieve the dual-function of releasing both HNO and a fluorophore in situ. Under physiological conditions, both SBD-D1 and SBD-D2 efficiently donated HNO (t = 10.

Nitroxyl shows a unique biological profile compared to the gasotransmitters nitric oxide and hydrogen sulfide. Nitroxyl reacts with thiols as an electrophile, and this redox chemistry mediates much of its biological chemistry. This reactivity necessitates the use of donors to study nitroxyl's chemistry and biology.
