Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 0.5 g of 4-nitrobenzyl (1R, 5S, 6S)-2-[(2S, 4S)-2-[4-(4-nitrobenzyloxycarbonylmethyl)-1-homopiperazinylcarbonyl]-1-(4-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl)pyrrolidin-4-ylthio]-6-[(1R)-1-hydroxyethyl]-1-methyl-1-carbapen-2-em-3-carboxylate [prepared as described in step (a) above] in 15 ml of 1:1 by volume mixture of tetrahydrofuran and water was mixed with 0.26 ml of 1N aqueous hydrochloric acid, and the mixture was hydrogenated by bubbling hydrogen through it at room temperature for 90 minutes in the presence of 0.5 g of 10% w/w palladium-on-charcoal. The catalyst was then removed by filtration, and the filtrate was washed with diethyl ether. The washed aqueous solution was then concentrated by evaporation under reduced pressure, and the concentrate was purified by reverse phase column chromatography through a Lobar column (Merck, LiChroprep RP-8, size B), using 1% v/v aqueous methanol as the eluent. Those fractions containing the title compound were collected, concentrated by evaporation under reduced pressure and lyophilized, to give 170 mg of the title compound as a powder.
