Cephalosporin C - CAS 61-24-5

Cephalosporin C exhibits relatively weak resistance to Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. It is stable against penicillinase, but can be decomposed by cephalosporinase. When hydrolyzed to remove its side chain, it yields 7-amino-cefenoic acid (7-ACA), which is an essential raw material for the production of semisynthetic cephalosporins.
