| Reactive group | Alcohols and PolyolsAmides and Imides |
| Reactivity Profile | N-HYDROXYBENZAMIDE is an amide. Amides/imides react with azo and diazo compounds to generate toxic gases. Flammable gases are formed by the reaction of organic amides/imides with strong reducing agents. Amides are very weak bases (weaker than water). Imides are less basic yet and in fact react with strong bases to form salts. That is, they can react as acids. Mixing amides with dehydrating agents such as P2O5 or SOCl2 generates the corresponding nitrile. The combustion of these compounds generates mixed oxides of nitrogen (NOx). |

| Fire fighting | Fires involving this material can be controlled with a dry chemical, carbon dioxide or Halon extinguisher. (NTP, 1992) |
| First aid | EYES: First check the victim for contact lenses and remove if present. Flush victim's eyes with water or normal saline solution for 20 to 30 minutes while simultaneously calling a hospital or poison control center. Do not put any ointments, oils, or medication in the victim's eyes without specific instructions from a physician. IMMEDIATELY transport the victim after flushing eyes to a hospital even if no symptoms (such as redness or irritation) develop.SKIN: IMMEDIATELY flood affected skin with water while removing and isolating all contaminated clothing. Gently wash all affected skin areas thoroughly with soap and water. If symptoms such as redness or irritation develop, IMMEDIATELY call a physician and be prepared to transport the victim to a hospital for treatment.INHALATION: IMMEDIATELY leave the contaminated areatake deep breaths of fresh air. If symptoms (such as wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath, or burning in the mouth, throat, or chest) develop, call a physician and be prepared to transport the victim to a hospital. Provide proper respiratory protection to rescuers entering an unknown atmosphere. Whenever possible, Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) should be usedif not available, use a level of protection greater than or equal to that advised under Protective Clothing.INGESTION: DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. If the victim is conscious and not convulsing, give 1 or 2 glasses of water to dilute the chemical and IMMEDIATELY call a hospital or poison control center. Be prepared to transport the victim to a hospital if advised by a physician. If the victim is convulsing or unconscious, do not give anything by mouth, ensure that the victim's airway is open and lay the victim on his/her side with the head lower than the body. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. IMMEDIATELY transport the victim to a hospital. (NTP, 1992) |
| Nonfire spill response | SMALL SPILLS AND LEAKAGE: If you spill this chemical, you should dampen the solid spill material with water, then transfer the dampened material to a suitable container. Use absorbent paper dampened with water to pick up any remaining material. Seal your contaminated clothing and the absorbent paper in a vapor-tight plastic bag for eventual disposal. Wash all contaminated surfaces with a soap and water solution. Do not reenter the contaminated area until the Safety Officer (or other responsible person) has verified that the area has been properly cleaned.STORAGE PRECAUTIONS: You should store this material in a refrigerator. (NTP, 1992) |
| Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) | RECOMMENDED RESPIRATOR: Where the neat test chemical is weighed and diluted, wear a NIOSH-approved half face respirator equipped with an organic vapor/acid gas cartridge (specific for organic vapors, HCl, acid gas and SO2) with a dust/mist filter.

Applications & Uses
Uses
Benzhydroxamic acid is used as precursor in the synthesis of novel mono-anionic and di-anionic hydroxamato complexes by reacting with BiPh3 and Bi(O(t)Bu)3, which has anti-bacterial activity against helicobacter pylori. It is used in the photometric determination of trace amounts of vanadium in alloy steels by making mixed-ligand vanadium chelates with ammonium thiocyanate. It is also involved in the palladium catalyzed synthesis of benzisoxazolones.
Uses
Benzhydroxamic acid may be employed for the Pd-catalyzed synthesis of benzisoxazolones.
General Description
Rhombic crystals or light beige solid.
Preparation & Synthesis
Preparation
To a rapidly stirred suspension of 19.6 gm (0.35 mole) of powdered anhydrous potassium hydroxide in 120 ml of pyridine, maintained at 0-5°C, is a added a solution of 13.9 gm (0.2 mole) of hydroxylamine hydrochloride in 100 ml of pyridine. While maintaining the reaction temperature at 0-5°C, 15 gm (0.1 mole) of ethyl benzoate is added. Vigorous stirring is continued at room temperature for 6 hr. Then the solids are filtered off. The solids are washed with cold water to remove inorganic coproducts. The remainder, recrystallized from aqueous ethanol, represents a 94% yield of potassium benzohydroxamate. This salt is triturated with cold 0.01 TV hydrochloric acid. From this mixture, by the usual procedures, 12.5 gm (91% overall) of benzohydroxamic acid is isolated, m.p. 131°C (from aqueous alcohol).
