Procedure

To an ice-cooled mixture of t-butyl 7α-amino-3-methyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylate (1.3 g, 0.0048 mol), ethanol (30 ml), water (8.5 ml), hydrobromic acid (48%, 5.83 ml), sodium nitrite (0.48 g, 0.00696 mol) was added portionwise over 15 minutes and the mixture was stirred at ice-temperature (-5° C.) for 3 hours, saturated with sodium chloride, extracted with ethyl acetate (3 times). The combined ethyl acetate extract was washed with water, brine, dried and concentrated to give 800 mg (50%) of pure t-butyl 7α-bromo-3-methyl-3-cephem-4carboxylate.
