Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (7R)-7-[(phenylacetyl)amino]-3-(4-bromophenylthio)-3-cephem-4-carboxylate, benzhydryl ester (80 mg, 0.12 mmol) in phenol (230 mg) at 45° was added trifluoroacetic acid (9 μL). After 1.5 h, the volatiles are removed with a rotary evaporator, and the residue was triturated with isopropanol/hexane. The resulting white solid was washed with ether and dried in vacuo, affording 48 mg (79%) of the title compound. 1H NMR (acetone-d6) δ3.67 (d, 1H, J=16), 3.75 (d, 1H, J=16), 3.64 (d, 1H, J=18), 3.67 (d, 1H, J=18), 5.25 (d, 1H, J=5), 5.92 (d, 1H, J=5), 7.2-7.7 (m, 9H); IR (KBr) 1347, 1386, 1606, 1756, 3276 cm-1.
