•Ampicillin is able to penetrate Gram-
positive and some Gram-negative
bacteria.
•It differs from penicillin G,only by the
presence of an amino group. That
amino group, present on both
ampicillin and amoxicillin, helps them
enter the pores of the outer membrane
of Gram-negative bacteria, such as E.
coli, Proteus mirabilis
Synthesis
Ampicillin
