Fosfomycin is a carboxylate antibiotic that is synthesized by microorganisms and has been found to be effective against Gram-positive bacteria. Fosfomycin trometamol EP impurity A is a monomer, which has been shown to cleave bonds at temperatures below the boiling point of water. The functional groups on fosfomycin trometamol EP impurity A are vinyl alcohol, phosphite, and malic acid. The magnetic resonance spectroscopy studies have shown that this molecule has two stereoisomers and that these stereoisomers have different binding affinities for carboxylates in the bacterial cell wall. In addition, fosfomycin trometamol EP impurity A has been shown to inhibit the growth of biomolecules such as DNA and RNA.
