Its English name is clindamycin phosphate. Its structural formula is as follows:
[0003]
[0004] Clindamycin phosphate impurity G is referred to as impurity G, and its chemical name is: methyl 6,8-dideoxy-2,4-O-(hydroxyphosphoryl)-6-[[[(2S,4R)-1-methyl-4-propyl-pyrrolidin-2-yl]formyl]amino]-1-thio-D-erythro-α-D-galacto-octanopyranoside, CAS: 1440605-46-8, and its chemical structure is as follows:

[0006] Clindamycin phosphate has no antibacterial activity in vitro. It can only exert its pharmacological effect after it is rapidly hydrolyzed into clindamycin after entering the body. Its antibacterial spectrum, antibacterial activity and therapeutic effect are the same as those of clindamycin, but its ester solubility and permeability are 4 to 8 times stronger than those of clindamycin, it is well absorbed, has a high concentration in bone tissue, and has strong antibacterial activity against Gram-positive cocci and anaerobic bacteria.
