Potassium Hydroxide → Bactroban

참여 물질

반응 단계

Pseudomonic acid (5.00 g, 10 mmole) was dissolved in methanol (5.5 ml), methanolic solution of potassium hydroxide (0.56 g, 10 mmole potassium hydroxide and 4 ml methanol) and methanolic solution of calcium chloride (0.56 g, 5.0 mmole calcium chloride and 5 ml methanol) were added to the mixture. The mixture was stirred for 1 hour. The solution was then filtered to remove potassium chloride (0.60 g). The methanol was then evaporated at reduced pressure to give a solid, white foam. The product was dried for 12 hours at 45° C. under vacuum to obtain 4.85 grams of final product. Assay: 95.9%, Water: 2.23% [total impurity: 3.19%, highest impurity: 1.23%-different method than assay], melting point: 85 to 89° C.
