81103-11-9 Usage
Description
Different sources of media describe the Description of 81103-11-9 differently. You can refer to the following data:
1. Clarithromycin is an acid stable macrolide antibiotic indicated for use in the
treatment of skin, urinary and respiratory tract infections. Compared to erythromycin,
clarithromycin exhibits the same in vitro activity against conventional pathogens, but
is better tolerated by generating less gastrointestinal problems.
2. Clarithromycin is a polyketide synthase-derived semisynthetic macrolide antibiotic. It is active against methicillin-susceptible, but not methicillin-resistant, S. aureus (MIC50s = 0.06 and >128 μg/ml), S. pyogenes, L. monocytogenes, and B. pertussis (MIC50 = 0.015, 0.25, and ≤0.008 μg/ml, respectively), among others. Clarithromycin (25 mg/kg) decreases the number of colony-forming units (CFUs) in the spleen in a mouse model of M. avium infection. Formulations containing clarithromycin have been used in the treatment of bacterial infections and, when used in combination with other antibiotics, in the treatment of H. pylori.

5. A macrolide antibiotic and protein synthesis inhibitor
Definition
ChEBI: The 6-O-methyl ether of erythromycin A, clarithromycin is a macrolide antibiotic used in the treatment of respiratory-tract, skin and soft-tissue infections. It is also used to eradicate Helicobacter pylori in the treatment
f peptic ulcer disease. It prevents bacteria from growing by interfering with their protein synthesis.
Manufacturing Process
In a mixture of 50 ml of dry dimethylsulfoxide and 100 ml of dry
tetrahydrofuran were dissolved 30 g of O,N-dibenzyloxycarbonyl-des-Nmethylerythromycin A and 18 ml of methyl iodide. The solution was stirred
under cooling at -12-10°C in a nitrogen stream and 2.4 g of 55-65% sodium
hydride oily dispersion were added thereto in small portions. The mixture was
stirred for a further one hour. After completion of the reaction, 50 ml of
triethylamine were poured into the reaction mixture with stirring under icecooling, and the precipitates were filtered off. The obtained solid product was
washed thoroughly with ethyl acetate, and the washings and the mother
liquor were combined. The combined liquor was washed with a saturated
aqueous sodium chloride solution and dried over anhydrous magnesium
sulfate. The solvent was evaporated in vacuo and the crude product was
applied onto a silica gel dry column (E. Merck Darmstadt; silica gel 60 for
column chromatography, 70-230 mesh). The mixture was eluted with of ethyl
acetate/n-hexane (1:1).
15 ml each of fraction was collected and analyzed by silica gel thin layer
chromatography, developing in a mixture of ethyl acetate and n-hexane (1:1).
The fractions having Rf value 0.16 were combined (c.f., Rf value of starting
compound 0.07) and the solvent was evaporated in vacuo, affording 12.2 g ofa colorless froth.
In a mixture of 1.32 g of sodium acetate, 0.8 ml of sodium acetate, 40 ml of
water and 200 ml of ethanol were dissolved 10 g of the colorless froth
obtained, and 1.0 g of palladium black was added to the above solution.
Catalytic reduction was performed for 5 hours at room temperature under
atmospheric pressure in a gentle hydrogen stream. 32 ml of 37% aqueous
formaldehyde solution were poured into the reaction mixture and the catalytic
reduction was continued for a further 7 hours. After completion of the
reaction, the catalyst was filtered off and the filtrate was concentrated under
reduced pressure approximately to a quarter volume. To the concentrate were
added 100 ml of water, and the mixture was adjusted to about pH 10 with an
aqueous sodium carbonate solution. The mixture was extracted thoroughly
with chloroform and the extract was washed with water and dried. After
evaporation of the solvent in vacuo, the residue was recrystallized from a
mixture of chloroform and diethyl ether, giving 6 g of crystals.
The crystals were stirred for 5 hours in 500 ml of diethyl ether and filtered off.
The filtrate was concentrated to dryness and the residual substance was
recrystallized from a mixture of chloroform and diethyl ether, giving 4.5 g of
6-O-methylerythromycin A (Clarithromycin) in the form of colorless needles;
m.p. 217-220°C (with decomposition).

Therapeutic Function
Antibiotic
Antimicrobial activity
Activity against susceptible common pathogens is two to four times greater than that of erythromycin A . Most respiratory pathogens, with the exception of H. influenzae, are inhibited at a concentration of ≤0.25 mg/L. It inhibits Mycoplasma pneumoniae at 0.004 mg/L and Mor. catarrhalis at 0.06 mg/L. It is eight times more active than erythromycin A against Legionella spp., C. trachomatis and Ch. pneumoniae. Against anaerobic species, activity is similar to that of erythromycin A. Against H. influenzae the 14-hydroxy metabolite is twice as active as the parent compound.
General Description
Some of the microbiological properties of clarithromycin appear to be superior to those of erythromycin. It exhibitsgreater potency against M. pneumoniae, Legionellaspp., Chlamydia pneumoniae, H. influenzae, and M. catarrhalisthan does erythromycin. Clarithromycin also hasactivity against unusual pathogens such as Borrelia burgdorferi(the cause of Lyme disease) and the Mycobacteriumavium complex (MAC). Clarithromycin is significantly moreactive than erythromycin against group A streptococci, S.pneumoniae, and the viridans group of streptococci in vivobecause of its superior oral bioavailability. Clarithromycin is,however, more expensive than erythromycin, which must beweighed against its potentially greater effectiveness.Adverse reactions to clarithromycin are rare. The mostcommon complaints relate to GI symptoms, but these seldomrequire discontinuance of therapy. Clarithromycin,like erythromycin, inhibits cytochrome P450 oxidases and,thus, can potentiate the actions of drugs metabolized bythese enzymes.Clarithromycin occurs as a white crystalline solid that ispractically insoluble in water, sparingly soluble in alcohol,and freely soluble in acetone. It is provided as 250- and 500-mg oral tablets and as granules for the preparation of aqueousoral suspensions containing 25 or 50 mg/mL.
Hazard
Moderately toxic by ingestion. Human sys-temic effects.
Pharmaceutical Applications
A semisynthetic erythromycin A derivative (6-O- methyl erythromycin A) formulated for oral and intravenous use.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Macrolides, such as clarithromycin, prevent protein synthesis in bacteria, by binding to 50S ribosomal subunit. It also binds to other ribosomal proteins, and prevents the translocation of pepti-dyl-tRNA. In patients with refractory asthma, it is capable of regulating the levels of interleukin-8 (IL-8), and neutrophil accumulation and activation in lungs. Thus, it might be used as an additional therapy in asthma to reduce noneosinophilic airway inflammation.
Pharmacokinetics
Oral absorption： 55%
Cmax 50 mg oral： 0.75 mg/L after 1.7 h
500 mg oral： 1.65 mg/L after 2 h
Terminal half-life： 2.7–3.5 h
Volume of distribution ：250 L
Plasma protein binding 80%
absorption and distribution
It is more stable to gastric acid than erythromycin, but internal ketalization between the 9-keto group and the C-12 hydroxyl group has been described resulting in an inactive product: pseudo clarithromycin. It is rapidly absorbed orally and absorption is not affected by food. Concentrations in tonsil and lung tissues exceed the simultaneous plasma level by a factor of two and four, respectively.
Metabolism and excretion
The primary metabolic pathway is N-demethylation of the d-desosamine and stereospecific hydroxylation at the 14- position of the erythronolide A ring. Metabolism to the 14-hydroxy derivative is saturable above 800 mg. Around 20&ndash：40% of the administered dose is eliminated in urine. The apparent elimination half-life of the 14-hydroxy metabolite is around 7 h. The parent compound and its principal metabolite are retained in renal impairment, resulting in long apparent elimination half-lives, exceeding 30 and 45 h, respectively, in patients whose creatinine clearance is less than 30 mL/min.
Clinical Use
Antibacterial agent:
Also adjunct in treatment of duodenal ulcers by
eradication of H pylori
Side effects
Clarithromycin is well tolerated, producing little gastrointestinal disturbance and only transient changes in some liver function tests.

Metabolism
The microbiologically active metabolite
14-hydroxyclarithromycin is formed by first pass
metabolism. The pharmacokinetics of clarithromycin are non
linear. At 250 mg bd, 15-20% of unchanged drug is excreted
in the urine. With 500 mg bd dosing urinary excretion is
approximately 36%. The 14-hydroxyclarithromycin is the
major urinary metabolite and accounts for 10-15% of the
dose. Most of the remainder of the dose is eliminated in the
faeces, primarily via the bile. 5-10% of the parent drug is
recovered from the faeces.
