Abstract

The stability of 1% solutions of cytostatics Ftorafur and 5-fluorouracil was studied during oxidation with hydrogen peroxide in alkaline (0.1 N NaOH), acidic (0.1 N H 2SO 4), and weakly acidic (pH 5) solutions by thin-layer chromatography. The decrease in the cytostatic content was monitored spectrophotometrically in the uv region. The greatest decrease in the cytostatic content occurred in alkaline solutions, where the pyrimidine ring opened between N3 and C4 and between C6 and N1, with formation of urea.
