Cefazaflur: kinetics of hydrolysis in aqueous solution, acid dissociation constant and alkaline decomposition to fluorescent products.
The values of the pseudo-first order hydrolysis rate constants in the pH range 1 to 10, and the pKa, were determined for cefazaflur in aqueous solution at 37 degrees C and ionic strength 0.2 M. A fluorimetric assay, based on alkaline hydrolysis at 100 degrees C, was also developed for this compound. The results are consistent with previously reported related properties of other monoprotic cephalosporins.
