Reaction Steps

To a solution of p-nitrobenzyl (1R,5S,6S)-2-(1-{4-[(1S)-1-(t-butyldimethylsilyloxymethyl)-3-methylbutylcarbamoyl]-1,3-thiazol-2-yl}azetidin-3-yl)thio-6-[(R)-1-hydroxyethyl]-1-methylcarbapen-2-em-3-carboxylate (640 mg, 0.827 mmol) (obtained as described in Example 42(1)) in tetrahydrofuran (32 ml) were added acetic acid (142 μl, 2.48mmol) and a solution of 1 M tetrabutylammonium fluoride in tetrahydrofuran (2.48 ml, 2.48 mmol) in an ice bath and the mixture was stirred for 2 days at room temperature. After checking the completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer was washed with saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution and saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by chromatography on a silica gel column using ethyl acetate and ethyl acetate:methanol (9:1) as the eluant to afford p-nitrobenzyl (1R,5S,6S)-2-{1-[4-((1S)-1-hydroxymethyl-3-methylbutylcarbamoyl)-1,3-thiazol-2-yl]azetidin-3-yl}thio-6-[(R)-1-hydroxyethyl]-1-methylcarbapen-2-em-3-carboxylate (302 mg, yield 55%) as a pale yellow solid.
