7-ACA (7-aminocephalosporanic acid) is the core chemical structure (a synthon) for the synthesis of cephalosporin antibiotics and intermediates. It can be obtained by chemoenzymatic hydrolysis of cephalosporin C.[1][2]

The production of 7-ACA (7-aminocephalosporanic acid) is predominantly segmented into two methods which is Enzymatic Hydrolysis and Chemical Cracking. These processes are essential for the synthesis of various cephalosporin antibiotics.[3]
