Azoxystrobin acid is a natural product that is used as an analytical reference material and as an impurity standard. Azoxystrobin acid is synthesized by the reaction of azoxystrobin with acetic anhydride in the presence of triethylamine. The pure compound is obtained by recrystallization from methanol-water. Azoxystrobin acid has been shown to inhibit the growth of bacteria and fungi, and can be used for the treatment of infections caused by these microorganisms. Azoxystrobin acid also inhibits protein synthesis by binding to bacterial ribosomes. It has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties, which may be due to its inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis.
