Dicloxacillin, (dichloro-oxacillin) is a beta-lactam based, penicillin-like, penicillinase-resistant antibiotic used to treat infections due to aerobic, Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. For more information about this drug, see the related pages for oxacillin and cloxacillin.
Chemistry
The IUPAC chemical name of dicloxacillin is (2S,5R,6R)-6-[[3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-5-methyl1,2-oxazole-4-carbonyl]amino]-3,3-dimethyl-7-oxo-4-thia-1-azabicyclo[3.2.0]heptane-2-carboxylic acid, and it has molecular formula C19H17Cl2N3O5S, giving it a molecular mass of 470.3264 g/mol. It is susceptible to degradation in bacteria that express beta-lactamase.
