Description

Florfenicol, a commonly used veterinary antibiotic, is currently indicated for the treatment of bovine respiratory disease, and also used in aquaculture for the control of enteric septicemia in catfish. Florfenicol can induce early embryonic death in eggs, with an LC50 of 1.07 μg/g.


Florfenicol is a carboxamide that is the N-dichloroacetyl derivative of (1R,2S)-2-amino-3-fluoro-1-[4-(methanesulfonyl)phenyl]propan-1-ol. A synthetic veterinary antibiotic that is used for treatment of bovine respiratory disease and foot rot; also used in aquaculture. It has a role as an antimicrobial agent. It is a sulfone, a secondary alcohol, an organofluorine compound, an organochlorine compound and a secondary carboxamide. It derives from a dichloroacetic acid.|Florfenicol is a fluorinated synthetic analog of thiamphenicol.

Florfenicol Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

In a 100 mL three-necked flask, 4 g (4R, 5R) _5_ dichloroacetamido)_4_(4-carbazyl)_1, 3, 2-dioxathiaxanthene-2, 2-dioxide ( IV_2) dissolved in 30mLl, 2-dichloroethane solvent, 6g of triethylamine hydrofluoric acid salt, heated to 70 C reflux reaction for 8h, TLC or HPLC monitoring reaction, after the reaction of the raw materials, cooled to room temperature. At 0 C, 5 mL of 2 mol 1 / L hydrochloric acid was added dropwise. After the completion of the dropwise addition, the reaction was carried out at 0 C for 2 h. After the reaction was completed, the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. EtOAc (EtOAc m. Solvent, crude by column chromatography (petroleum ether / ethyl acetate = 2:1, v / nu)The white solid was 1.4 g, and the HPLC purity was determined to be 99.6 %Collecting the solution of Compound B in the reaction kettle, The solvent was then distilled off.90 g of sodium acetate (1.10 mol, 0.4 eq) and360g of methanol was added to the reaction kettle, The reaction was carried out at 60 C for 60 minutes, and then the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. Add 7200 g of an aqueous solution of isopropanol (25%).The temperature is raised to 70-80 C to recrystallize, the temperature of the reaction liquid is lowered to 10 to 20 C, and the product compound C is obtained by suction filtration.After drying, 912 g was obtained, and the yield was 95%.

Uses
