✦ Synopsis


Several novel N-substituted N-nitrosohydroxylamines were synthesized. They all inhibited mushroom tyrosinase, but the type of inhibition was different depending on the substituent. Some N-(mono- or dihydroxybenzyl)-N-nitrosohydroxylamines exhibited uncompetitive inhibition with respect to L-dopa. Among them, compound 6 was also a competitive inhibitor with respect to oxygen. This observation suggests that another interaction by the meta- or para-hydroxyl group might stabilize the binding of the inhibitor to the enzyme through the oxygen binding site.

To overcome the disadvantages of hydroxyurea in anticancer therapy such as fast biotransformation and low potency, five cyclic N-hydroxyureas were synthesized. A new reaction was developed to prepare the desired products from the appropriate alkyl omega-haloalkylcarbamates with hydroxylamine. This r
