Reaction Steps

In 1.2 l of tetrahydrofuran is dissolved 20 g (45.9 mmol) of p-nitrobenzyl (Z)-2-(2-amino-4-thiazolyl)-2-(t-butoxycarbonylmethoxyimino)acetate and, after addition of 20 g of 10% palladium-on-carbon, hydrogen gas is bubbled into the solution. After completion of the reaction, the catalyst is filtered off, and the filtrate is poured into 300 ml of water. The mixture is adjusted to about pH 8 with 5% aqueous sodium bicarbonate and washed with three 200-ml portions of ethyl acetate. The aqueous layer is adjusted to pH about 2 with 10% HCl and cooled to 5° C. or lower. The resulting crystalline precipitate is collected by filtration, washed with water and dried under reduced pressure to give 11.1 g of (Z)-2-(2-amino-4-thiazolyl)-2-(t-butoxycarbonylmethoxyimino)acetic acid.
