Unlabelled: The present study entails the usefulness of thermophilic amidase-producing bacterium in the biotransformation of benzamide to benzohydroxamic acid (BHA). A bacterium IIIMB2907 was isolated from a soil sample collected from hot springs of Manikaran, Himachal Pradesh, India. The whole cells of the bacterium displayed versatile substrate specificity by exhibiting significant activity with a diverse range of amides. In addition, amidase from thermophilic bacterium was induced by adding Ɛ-caprolactam in the mineral base media. The optimum temperature and pH of acyltransferase activity of amidase enzyme were found to be 50 °C and 7.0, respectively. Interestingly, half-life ( ) of this enzyme was 17.37 h at 50 °C. Bench-scale production and purification of BHA was carried out at optimized conditions which resulted in the recovery of 64% BHA with a purity of 96%. Owing to this, the reported process in the present study can be considered of immense industrial significance for the production of BHA.

We found recently that a C-C bonding phenyl-quinone product was produced with high yield (96%) from the reaction between 2,5-dichloro-1,4-Benzoquinone (DCBQ) and N-phenylbenzohydroxamic acid (N-PhBHA) via an unusual Claisen rearrangement mechanism, accompanied with the concurrent formation of the minor byproducts amide (N-phenylBenzamide, N-PhBA; only 2% yield) and hydroxychloroquinone (2% yield). Surprisingly, when DCBQ was replaced with its reduced form 2,5-dichloro-1,4-hydroquinone (DCHQ), no C-C bonding product was detected, whereas N-PhBA (83% yield) and hydroxychloroquinone (80% yield) became the predominant products, indicating a dramatic mechanistic shift. The ascorbate reduction experiment suggested that it was not DCHQ itself, but its corresponding semiquinone radical, that directly reacts with N-PhBHA.

Flotation is the most common method for effective separation of pyrite and carbonate minerals from Carlin-type gold deposits. The effect of conventional xanthate collector on flotation of a Carlin-type gold mine in Guizhou province is poor, and it can not effectively remove carbonate minerals. In this paper, butyl xanthoxanthate and benzohydroxamic acid (BHA) were used as a new combined collector for the flotation separation of a Carlintype gold mine in Guizhou Province.

The search for environmentally friendly alternatives to petroleum-based reagents in mineral processing requires fundamental studies of novel chemicals in model mineral systems. In this study, we evaluate the potential of acidic (ASL) and lactonic sophorolipids (LSL) as collectors in the froth flotation of ultrafine ceria, which serves as a model rare earth mineral (REM). We compare these two biosurfactants to a conventional petroleum-based collector, benzohydroxamic acid (BHA), in the flotation of ceria against hematite and quartz particles.

Article Synopsis
- Ilmenite and olivine are similar, making it hard to separate them, but a special method called flotation helps.
- Scientists created a special collector made from aluminum ion (III), benzohydroxamic acid (BHA), and sodium oleate (NaOL) to help with this separation.
- Tests showed that at pH 8, the collector worked well by sticking to ilmenite and making it easier to float away from olivine.

Lead nitrate (LN) is frequently employed as an activator in the flotation of cassiterite using hydroxamic acids as the collectors. This study investigated the effect of LN on the hydrophobic aggregation of cassiterite when benzohydroxamic acid (BHA), hexyl hydroxamate (HHA), and octyl hydroxamate (OHA) were used as the collectors through micro-flotation, focused beam reflectance measurement (FBRM) and a particle video microscope (PVM), zeta potential, and the extended DLVO theory. Micro-flotation tests confirmed that LN activated the flotation of cassiterite using the hydroxamic acids as collectors.
