Cefixime methyl ester

CAS: 88621-01-6

Cefixime methyl ester is a chemical compound often used in the development of antibiotics, specifically as a semi-synthetic cephalosporin derivative. It is derived from Cephalosporium acremonium, a type of fungus, which serves as a source for the initial cephalosporin structure. The compound functions as a beta-lactam antibiotic by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis. It achieves this through the acylation of penicillin-binding proteins, effectively halting the transpeptidation or cross-linking of the peptidoglycan layer, which is crucial for bacterial survival and division.
