This invention relates to a process for the removal of an allyl or allyloxycarbonyl group from an allyl or allyloxycarbonyl group protected compound (such as an allylic ester, carbonate, carbamate, O-allyl derivatives or N-allyl derivatives), which comprises contacting the allyl or allyloxycarbonyl group protected compound with a sulfinic acid compound, in the presence of a palladium catalyst in a reaction-inert solvent. Preferably, the sulfinic acid compound is represented by the formula: X--SO.sub.2 M (I) wherein X is C.sub.1-20 alkyl, substituted C.sub.1-20 alkyl (wherein the substituent(s) are independently halo, nitro, sulfo, oxo, amino, cyano, carboxy, hydroxy or moieties derived therefrom), phenyl, substituted phenyl (wherein the substituent(s) are independently C.sub.1-3 alkyl, halo nitro, sulfo, oxo, amino, cyano, carboxy, hydroxy, acetamido or moieties derived therefrom), furyl or thienyl; and M is hydrogen, an alkali metal or ammonium salt residue. Of these, most preferred sulfinic acid compound is lithium p-toluenesulfinate, sodium p-toluenesulfinate, potassium p-toluenesulfinate, p-toluenesulfinic acid, ammonium p-toluenesulfinate, lithium benzenesulfinate, sodium benzenesulfinate, potassium benzenesulfinate, benzenesulfinic acid or ammonium benzenesulfinate. This invention is well suited to a process for the conversion of an allyl ester of 5R,6S-6-(1R-hydroxyethyl)-2-(1R-oxo-3S-thiolanylthio)-2-penem-3-carboxylic acid to 5R,6S-6-(1R-hydroxyethyl)-2-(1R-oxo-3S-thiolanylthio)-2-penem-3-carboxylic acid.
本发明涉及一种从烯丙基或烯丙氧羰基保护的化合物(如烯丙基酯、碳酸酯、氨基甲酸酯、O-烯丙基衍生物或N-烯丙基衍生物)中去除烯丙基或烯丙氧羰基基团的方法,该方法包括在钯催化剂存在下,在反应惰性溶剂中使烯丙基或烯丙氧羰基保护的化合物与亚磺酸化合物接触。优选地,亚磺酸化合物具有以下通式:X--SO₂M(I),其中X为C₁-₂₀烷基、取代的C₁-₂₀烷基(其中取代基独立地为卤素、硝基、磺基、氧代、氨基、氰基、羧基、羟基或由此衍生的基团)、苯基、取代的苯基(其中取代基独立地为C₁-₃烷基、卤素、硝基、磺基、氧代、氨基、氰基、羧基、羟基、乙酰氨基或由此衍生的基团)、呋喃基或噻吩基;M为氢、碱金属或铵盐残基。在这些亚磺酸化合物中,最优选的是对甲苯亚磺酸锂、对甲苯亚磺酸钠、对甲苯亚磺酸钾、对甲苯亚磺酸、对甲苯亚磺酸铵、苯亚磺酸锂、苯亚磺酸钠、苯亚磺酸钾、苯亚磺酸或苯亚磺酸铵。本发明特别适用于将5R,6S-6-(1R-羟乙基)-2-(1R-氧代-3S-噻烷硫基)-2-青霉烯-3-羧酸的烯丙基酯转化为5R,6S-6-(1R-羟乙基)-2-(1R-氧代-3S-噻烷硫基)-2-青霉烯-3-羧酸的过程。
