NMR spectroscopic analysis of 2-mercapto-5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole in cefazolin.
A rapid, sensitive, and accurate method for the quantitative analysis of 2-mercapto-5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole in cefazolin is presented. The method utilizes NMR spectroscopy and is based on the difference in the chemical shift of the methyl protons on free thiadiazole and the thiadiazole moiety of cefazolin.
