Description |
Azithromycin was the first of the azalides and was designed to improve the stability and biological half-life of erythromycin A, as well as improve activity against Gram negative bacteria. Azithromycin is a long-acting macrolide antibiotic structurally related to erythromycin A (EA), having a methyl-substituted nitrogen at position 9a in the aglycone ring. |
Uses |
Azithromycin(83905-01-5) is used to treat certain bacterial infections, such as bronchitis; pneumonia; sexually transmitted diseases (STD); and infections of the ears, lungs, sinuses, skin, throat, and reproductive organs.As for Gram-negative bacteria such as Haemophilus influenzae, Salmonella, E. coli, Shigella bacteria, it have strong antibacterial activity. And it is acid stable and well tolerated. It has a very good therapeutic effect on respiratory tract infections, skin and soft tissue infections, sexually transmitted diseases which are caused by sensitive bacteria. |
Manufacturing Process |
To a solution of 0.54 g (0.000722 mole) of 11 aza-10-deoxo-10- dihydroerythromycin A in 20 ml CHCl3 were added 0.0589 ml (0.000741 mole) of formaldehyde (approx. 35% w./w.) and 0.00283 g (0.000735 mole) of formic acid (approx. 98 to 100% w./w.). The reaction mixture was stirred for 8 hours while heating under reflux, then cooled to ambient temperature, whereupon were added 15 ml of water (pH 5.8). The pH of the reaction mixture was adjusted to 5.0 by means of 2 N HCl, whereupon the CHCl3 layer was separated. To the aqueous part was added 15 ml of CHCl3, the pH of the reaction suspension was adjusted to 7.5 by means of 20% NaOH, the layers were separated and subsequently the aqueous layer was extracted three times with 15 ml of CHCl3. The combined chloroform extracts having pH 7.5 were dried over K2CO3 and evaporated under reduced pressure, yielding 0.45 g (82.4%) of N-methyl-11-aza-10-deoxo-10-dihydro erythromycin A (azithromycin), m.p. 113°-115°C. [α]D 20= – 37.0 (1% in CHCl3). |
