Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-nitrobenzyl (4R,5S,6S)-3-[(2S,4S)-2-(2-aminothiazol-4-yl)-1-(4-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl)pyrrolidin-4-ylthio]-6-[(1R)-1-hydroxyethyl]-4-methyl-7-oxo-1-azabicyclo[3.2.0]hept-2-ene-2-carboxylate (900 mg), 20% palladium hydroxide on carbon (350 mg), 0.05M phosphate buffer (pH 6.5, 20 ml) and tetrahydrofuran (30 ml) was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours under atmospheric pressure of hydrogen. After the catalyst was filtered off, the filtrate was concentrated to remove the organic solvent. The residue was washed with ethyl acetate, adjusted to pH 6.2 with aqueous potassium carbonate and concentrated in vacuo to remove the organic solvent. The residue was chromatographed on nonionic adsorption resin "Diaion HP-20" (Trademark, made by Mitsubishi Chemical Industries) (60 ml) eluting in turn with water (250 ml) and 5-7% aqueous acetone (200 ml). The fractions containing the desired compound were collected and lyophilized to give (4R,5S,6S)-3-[(2S,4S)-2-(2-aminothiazol-4-yl) pyrrolidin-4-ylthio]-6-[(1R)-1-hydroxyethyl]-4-methyl-7-oxo-1-azabicyclo[3.2.0]hept-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid (233 mg).
