Hydrochloric Acid → HCID 131712588, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 7-[2-(2-propynyl)oxyimino-2-(2-formamidothiazol-4-yl)acetamido]-3-(1-allyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)thiomethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid (syn isomer) (2.0 g) in methanol (14 ml) was added conc.hydrochloric acid (0.3 g) and the mixture was stirred for 3.5 hours at ambient temperature. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure and the residue was dissolved in a saturated aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate. The aqueous solution was washed with ethyl acetate and adjusted to pH 2.8 with conc.hydrochloric acid. Precipitates were collected by filtration, washed with water and dried to give 7-[2-(2-propynyl)oxyimino-2-(2-aminothiazol-4-yl)acetamido]-3-(1-allyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)thiomethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid (syn isomer) (1.43 g).
