Amoxicillin
I have few grams of amoxicillin and I would like to make some reagents from it.
I would start by breaking that NH bond between hydroxyphenylglycine, but I am not sure which reagents I should use. Maybe HCl would do it? On the
other end of the compound I can't think of any things I could take.

I don't want to revive an old thread but just in case anyone wants to know what are the hydrolisis products of amoxicilin then here is a good paper
describing its products in acidic, neutral and alkaline conditions.
"New hydrolysis products of the beta-lactam antibiotic amoxicillin, their pH-dependent formation and search in municipal wastewater."
