Usage

General Description

Methoxymethyl isothiocyanate is a type of chemical compound generally associated with the category of organosulfur compounds. It is known for its broad spectrum of biological activities, with notable applications in the field of agriculture as a soil fumigant and pesticide. The compound's isothiocyanate component gives it its bioactive properties, contributing to its use in the control of soil-borne pests and diseases. However, due to its potential toxicity and high volatility, the use of methoxymethyl isothiocyanate needs to be managed carefully to ensure safety and effectiveness.

Process for preparing cephalosporin derivatives

A process for the manufacture of a cephalosporin derivative of the formula I STR1 in which X is sulphur, oxygen or sulphinyl; R1 is any one of the C-3 substituents from antibacterially-active cephalosporins known in the art; R2 is hydrogen or 1-6C alkyl; R3 is hydrogen or 1-6C alkyl; and the pharmaceutically-acceptable acid-addition and base-addition salts thereof, characterized by cyclization of a compound of the formula II: STR2 or a derivative thereof in which the carbonyl group is masked, or an acid-addition salt thereof, in which R4 and R5 individually have one of the values for R2 and R3, R6 is a nitrogen-protecting group and R7 is hydrogen or any one of the cephalosporin 3-carboxylic acid protecting groups known in the art; whereafter when the product from the cyclization retains the protecting group R7 (when R7 is other than hydrogen) the protecting group R7 is replaced by hydrogen by conventional means; and whereafter when the compound of the formula I is obtained in the form of the free base or salt, and a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt or free base respectively is required, any necessary conversion between free base and salt is carried out by conventional means.
