Phosphoric Acid → Sodium 3-[2-(2-chloroacetamido-4-thiazolyl)-2-methoxyiminoacetamido]-3-methoxy-2-oxoazetidine-1-sulfonate

Participants

Reaction Steps

In 1 ml of water is dissolved 30 mg of the above 3-amino-3-methoxy-2-oxoazetidine-1-sulfonic acid, and to the solution are added a solution of 89 mg of the acid chloride prepared from 2-(2-chloroacetamido-4-thiazolyl)-2-methoxyiminoacetic acid (syn-isomer) in 1 ml of tetrahydrofuran and 36 mg of sodium hydrogen carbonate in alternate portions with ice-cooling and stirring. The mixture is further stirred at room temperature for 20 minutes and adjusted to pH 5.8 with phosphoric acid. After removal of tetrahydrofuran under reduced pressure, the water layer is washed with ethyl acetate and purified by Amberlite XAD-II chromatography. The above procedure yields 28 mg of sodium 3-[2-(2-chloroacetamido-4-thiazolyl)-2-methoxyiminoacetamido]-3-methoxy-2-oxoazetidine-1-sulfonate (syn-isomer) which is the same compound as the one described in Example 9.
