General description

This product is a penicilloic acid with the N-acyl group phenylacetyl as side-chain. In alkaline medium, 5R,6R-Benzylpenicilloic acid epimerizes slowly to 5S,6R-benzylpenicilloic acid until equilibrium.

Application

5R,6R-Benzylpenicilloic acid was found to epimerize slowly in alkaline media to 5S,6R-benzylpenicilloic acid until equilibrium was established. Epimerization proceeded via the imine tautomer of penamaldic acid rather than the enamine form and was found to favor the 5S,6R-epimer at equilibrium.
