Participants

Reaction Steps

7-[2-(2-Amino-4-thiazolyl)-2-methoxyiminoacetamido]-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid(syn-isomer: 5 g.) was gradually added to an aqueous solution (30 ml.) of sodium bicarbonate (1.04 g.) at 35° to 40° C., and stirred at 50° to 53° C. for 30 minutes. After removing the insoluble substance from the resultant solution, the filtrate was treated with activated charcoal (0.3 g.), and filtered. The filtrate was lyophilized to give sodium 7-[2-(2-amino-4-thiazolyl)-2-methoxyiminoacetamido]-3-cephem-4-carboxylate (syn-isomer: 4.2 g.)
