产品介绍

6-Aminopenicillanic Acid (syn: (+)-6-Aminopenicillanic Acid; 6-APA) is an organic dipeptide and the  chemical core or "nucleus" of penicillin antibiotics.  It was discovered in 1958  (Beecham Group, UK).  It is produced from Penicillin by Penicillin amidase.  6-Aminopenicillanic Acid, a β-lactam, is used as a starting compound for synthesis of semisynthetic Penicillins and may be substituted at the 6-amino position, resulting in a variety of antibacterial properties.  It is a precursor to Ampicillin and Amoxicillin.
