Reaction Steps

7-[2-Methoxyimino-2-{2-(2,2,2-trifluoroacetamido)-1,3-thiazol-4-yl}acetamido]-3-(1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)thiomethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid (syn isomer) (23 g) was suspended in a solution of sodium acetate trihydrate (74.8 g) in water (230 ml) and the suspension was stirred for 15 hours at ambient temperature. The reaction mixture was adjusted to pH 5.0 with conc. hydrochloric acid and insoluble material was filtered off. The filtrate was adjusted to pH 2.5 and precipitating crystals were collected by filtration and dried to give 7-[2-methoxyimino-2-(2-amino-1,3-thiazol-4-yl)acetamido]-3-(1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)thiomethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid (syn isomer) (14 g), mp 172° to 175° C. (dec.).
