The preparation by total synthesis of a new class of β-lactam antibiotics is reported. Conversion of alcohol 1b to its mesylate 9b followed by hydrolysis of the acetal to the enol 1b and base-catalyzed ring closure gave benzyl 7- β-azido-Δ3-O-2-isocephem-4-carboxylate 8b. Similarly prepared were the 3 -methyl, 3 -benzyl, and 3 -phenethyl analogs (32b–d). Reduction of the azides followed by coupling of the resultant amines with phenoxyacetic acid and removal of the benzyl groups by hydrogenolysis gave the acids 35a–e which exhibited high antibacterial activity. The structural assignments to the O-2-isocephems which were made on the basis of their spectral characteristics (ir, uv, and nmr) are discussed.
报道了一种新类β-内酰胺类抗生素的全合成制备。将醇1b转化为其甲磺酸酯9b,随后水解缩醛为烯醇1b,并经过碱催化的环闭合得到苄基7-β-叠氮-Δ3-O-2-异头孢-4-羧酸酯8b。类似地制备了3-甲基、3-苄基和3-苯乙基类似物(32b–d)。还原叠氮基后,将产生的胺与苯氧乙酸偶联,并通过氢解去除苄基,得到表现出高抗菌活性的酸35a–e。基于它们的光谱特性(红外光谱、紫外光谱和核磁共振)对O-2-异头孢的结构分配进行了讨论。
