In the last decade, beta-lactams use in veterinary and human medicine increased to represent today about 15% of the overall consumption. Beta-lactams tend to degrade and metabolize in the environment. Therefore, anal. methods must be sensitive enough to quantify low concentrations of the parent mols. and also allow detection of metabolites. This study presents the development of a modified QuEChERS method for the extraction of seven beta-lactams and one degradation product (Amoxicillin, Ampicillin, Cefapirin, Cefoperazone, Cefquinome, Ceftiofur, Cloxacillin, and Amoxicillin-Diketopiperazine) from sewage treatment plant sludge and their anal. by liquid chromatog. coupled with tandem mass spectrometry. Before the QuEChERS extraction, a dispersion step of the sample with EDTA-treated sand was optimized and added, allowing to facilitate the exchanges between the matrix and the extraction solvent. Then, to decrease the interferences present in the extract, a fast and efficient pass-through SPE was implemented. The optimized method was validated and showed satisfactory performances, in adequacy with the anal. of beta-lactams in solid environmental matrixes. Limits of quantification lower than 20 ng.g-1 for all analytes, high accuracy (96%-114% quantification on spiked samples nominal concentration) and interday precision (2%-12% RSD) were obtained. This method was then applied to eight sludge samples. Cefapirin and amoxicillin-diketopiperazine were detected in four samples each, at concentrations of 10.2-53.3 ng.g-1 and 3.0-9.5 ng.g-1 resp. Thus, the developed method is very effective for the extraction of beta-lactams from environmental solid matrixes. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, (6R,7R)-7-((R)-2-(4-Ethyl-2,3-dioxopiperazine-1-carboxamido)-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acetamido)-3-(((1-methyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)thio)methyl)-8-oxo-5-thia-1-azabicyclo[4.2.0]oct-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid (cas: 62893-19-0Synthetic Route of C25H27N9O8S2).
(6R,7R)-7-((R)-2-(4-Ethyl-2,3-dioxopiperazine-1-carboxamido)-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acetamido)-3-(((1-methyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)thio)methyl)-8-oxo-5-thia-1-azabicyclo[4.2.0]oct-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid (cas: 62893-19-0) belongs to piperazine derivatives. The piperazine scaffold is often found in biologically active compounds in different therapeutic areas. These therapeutic areas include antifungals, antidepressants, antivirals, and serotonin receptor (5-HT) antagonists/agonists. Although many piperazine derivatives occur naturally, piperazine itself can be synthesized by reacting alcoholic ammonia with 1,2-dichloroethane, by the action of sodium and ethylene glycol on ethylene diamine hydrochloride, or by reduction of pyrazine with sodium in ethanol.Synthetic Route of C25H27N9O8S2
