Sparfloxacin [CAS: 110871-86-8] is an antibacterial that treats various bacterial infections, such as pneumonia.
Sparfloxacin: Use and Commercial Availability
Sparfloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic that treats bacterial infections. It treats various respiratory tract infections, including acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis and community-acquired pneumonia caused by susceptible strains of microorganisms.
Sparfloxacin is available under Zagam, which effectively contains the active ingredient, Sparfloxacin.
Sparfloxacin Structure and Mechanism of Action 
The chemical name of Sparfloxacin is rel-5-Amino-1-cyclopropyl-7-[(3R,5S)-3,5-dimethyl-1-piperazinyl]-6,8-difluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid. Its chemical formula is C19H22F2N4O3, and its molecular weight is approximately 392.4 g/mol.
Sparfloxacin functions by inhibiting the activity of bacterial enzymes, topoisomerase II (DNA-gyrase) and topoisomerase IV, involved in bacterial DNA replication, transcription, and repair.
Sparfloxacin Impurities and Synthesis
Impurities can arise during the synthesis1 and storage of Sparfloxacin, including related substances, degradation products, or residual solvents. These impurities need monitoring and control to ensure the medication’s safety, efficacy, and quality.
Daicel offers a Certificate of Analysis (CoA) from a cGMP-compliant analytical facility for Sparfloxacin impurity standards like Sparfloxacin Benzyl amino Impurity, Sparfloxacin de-amino Impurity, Sparfloxacin De-cyclopropyl Impurity, Sparfloxacin Fluoro Impurity, Sparfloxacin Hydroxy Impurity, and Sparfloxacin Diamino Impurity. The CoA includes complete characterization data, such as 1H NMR, 13C NMR, IR, MASS, and HPLC purity. We give additional characterization data, including 13C-DEPT, on request. Daicel Pharma specializes in synthesizing unknown impurities or degradation products of Sparfloxacin.
