Notes:
In continuation of our work on penem antibiotics, novel chiral (5R,6S)-2-(1′-aminoalkyl)-6-(hydroxyalkyl)-derivatives 1 have been synthesized by two essentially different strategies. Whereas the starting materials for 1a-f, azetidinones 2 and 5, were obtained from chiral building blocks (6-aminopenicillanic acid and L-threonine, resp.), the one for 1g, azetidinone 9, was derived from racemic 4-acetoxyazetidinone and, as chiral auxiliary, (2R)-2-mercaptopropan-1-ol. The 2-aminomethyl derivatives 1a (CGP 30 779) and 1f (CGP 31 608) proved the most potent compounds in the antibacterial tests in vitro and showed a well-balanced spectrum of activity by comparison with that of established β-lactams.
