ABSTRACT
Seven esters derivatives of Nitroxinil were prepared and their structures were assigned by IR and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The rate of plasma and hepatic hydrolysis were evaluated in vitro in sheep and rabbit. In view of this profile of activity, pivaloyl derivative merits evaluation, in vivo.

Nitroxynil distribution and the period of its retention in the organism of sheep and calves subcutaneously treated with therapeutical doses of the Bulgarian patent medicine fasciolid which contains N-methylglucaminic-nitro-xynil salt were followed. Comparative studies were carried out using the patent medicine dovenix "Specia". The polarographic method, based on nitro-group reduction over a dripping mercury electrod was applied for nitroxynil determination. It was established that fasciolid and dovenix applied to sheep and cattle in a prophylactic-therapeutic dose did not differ significantly in their distribution and retention in the organism.
