Reaction Steps

3-(2-Acetamidothiazol-5-yl)-2-benzhydryloxycarbonyl-7-t-butoxycarbonylamino-8-oxo-5-thia-1-azabicyclo[4.2.0]oct-2-ene (4.6 g) is dissolved in acetonitrile (190 cc) at 35° C. and treated with a solution of p-toluenesulphonic acid (monohydrate) (2.9 g) in acetonitrile (20 cc) for 3 hours at 35° C., for 16 hours at 25° C. and then for a further 6 hours at 35° C. after the addition of p-toluenesulphonic acid (monohydrate) (0.95 g). The reaction mixture is partially concentrated under reduced pressure (30 mm Hg; 4 kPa) at 30° C. and then diluted with methylene chloride (200 cc) and a saturated solution of sodium bicarbonate (200 cc). The aqueous layer is extracted with methylene chloride (100 cc) and the combined organic solutions are washed with water (200 cc) and then dried and concentrated under reduced pressure (30 mm Hg; 4 kPa) at 30° C. The residue is dried under reduced pressure (10 mm Hg; 1.3 kPa) at 25° C. This gives crude 3-(2-acetamidothiazol-5-yl)-7-amino-2-benzhydryloxycarbonyl-8-oxo-5-thia-1-azabicyclo[4.2.0]oct-2-ene (3.3 g) in the form of a beige powder.
