General description

3-Amino-5-methylisoxazole is the major intermediate formed during sulfamethoxazole biodegradation by Pseudomonas psychrophila strain HA-4. It is the intermediate formed during the photocatalytic degradation of sulfamethoxazole (SMX).

Application

3-Amino-5-methylisoxazole was used in synthesis of:
  • naphtho[1,2-e][1,3]oxazines
  • series of 1-aryl-4-methyl-3,6-bis-(5-methylisoxazol-3-yl)-2-thioxo-2,3,6,10b-tetrahydro-1H-pyrimido[5,4-c]quinolin-5-ones, having potential mosquito larvicidal activity
  • hydroxylamines of sulfadiazine and sulfamethoxazole

Sulfamethoxazole (SMX) is a sulfonamide antibiotic, widely used as curative and preventive drug for human, animal, and aquaculture bacterial infections. Its residues have been ubiquitously detected in the surface waters and sediments. In the present study, SMX dissipation and kinetics

Sulphamethoxazole (SMX) is extensively used in humans and livestock, but its appearance in natural water raises environmental concerns. This study demonstrated that SMX and its degradation product, 3-amino-5-methylisoxazole (3A5MI), could be effectively degraded in microbial fuel cell (MFC) reactors. Approximately

Photocatalytic degradation of sulfamethoxazole (SMX) was investigated using Bi2O3/Bi2O2CO3/Sr6Bi2O9 (BSO) photocatalyst under visible light (>420 nm) irradiation. The photochemical degradation of SMX followed pseudo-first-order kinetics. The reaction kinetics was determined as a function of initial SMX concentrations (5-20 mg L(-1))

Among the most serious side effects of sulfonamides are hypersensitivity reactions, the pathogenesis of which has been suggested to be mediated by reactive metabolites. We have previously demonstrated dose-related covalent binding and toxicity of reactive intermediates of sulfonamides generated by

Sulfamethoxazole is a common antibiotic that is frequently detected in wastewater and surface water. This study investigated the biodegradation and metabolic pathway of sulfamethoxazole by Pseudomonas psychrophila HA-4, a cold-adapted bacterium. Strain HA-4, which uses sulfamethoxazole as its sole source
