Abstract

The redox congener of the important signaling agent nitric oxide (NO), nitroxyl or nitrosyl hydride (HNO) has also been demonstrated to induce distinct physiological effects. The aim of this study was to determine if benzohydroxamic acid, which was selected as a stable model compound of HNO donors, could be released by the o-nitrobenzyl photolabile protecting group (PPG) in a wavelength-dependent manner. It was expected that selective ...
