Acetone → Amphoglucamine

関与物質

反応手順

19.7 g of amphotericin B with a specific biological activity of 750 mcg/mg (ED/mg) and 14.7 g of meglumine with the content of 1-deoxy-1-(methylamino)-glucitol of at least 99% are dissolved in 100 ml of dimethylsulphoxide at a temperature within the range of from 50° to 60° C and stirred for 10 minutes. The resulting solution is added with a 7-fold volume of a mixture of acetone with diethyl ether (in a volumetric ratio of 1:1). The precipitate is filtered off, washed with the same mixture of acetone with diethyl ether, and dried at 20° C under a residual pressure of 100 mm Hg to give 32.7 g of amphoglucamine with a specific biological activity of 440 mcg/mg (ED/mg) which corresponds to the yield of 96% of amphoglucamine based on the activity of the starting amphotericin B.
