Reaction Steps

Freshly activated Zn dust (32.0 g) was added rapidly with 0.5 mol/L phosphate buffer (pH 6.5, 167 mL) to the THF (114 mL) and acetonitrile (53 mL) solution of crude (5R)-6-[acetoxy-(5,5-dimethyl-4H-1,6a-diazapentalen-2-yl)methyl]-6-bromo-7-oxo-4-thia-1-azabicyclo[3.2.0]hept-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid p-nitrobenzyl ester. The reaction vessel was covered with foil to exclude light. The reaction mixture was vigorously stirred for 1.5 h at room temperature. The reaction solution was cooled at 0° C., and then the pH was adjusted to 8.0. Ethyl acetate (85 mL) was added to the mixture and filtered through a pad of Celite. The pad was washed with water (120 mL). The aqueous layer was separated and then the organic layer was extracted with 0.5 mol/L phosphate buffer (pH 6.5, 2×50 mL). The combined aqueous layers were cooled at 0° C., and then the pH was adjusted to 8.5. The mixture was concentrated to 325 g, and then applied to Diaion HP-21 resin (240 mL, Mitsubishi Kasei Co. Ltd.) column chromatography. After adsorbing, the column was eluted with water (480 mL) and then acetonitrile aqueous solution (10%; 480 mL, 20%; 720 mL). The combined active fractions were concentrated under high vacuum at 35° C. and lyophilized to give the titled compound as a yellow amorphous solid (2.00 g, 42.8%, pH 7.16).
