(Chemical Equation Presented) Preparation of two new compounds 2-mercapto-5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazolyl-(Z)-2-(2-amino-4-thiazolyl) -2-trityloxyiminoacetate (14) and 2-mercapto-5-methyl-1, 3,4-thiadiazolyl- (Z)-2-(2-amino-4-thiazolyl)-2-acetyloxyiminoacetate (12) and their use in the preparation of 7β-[(Z)-2-(2-amino-4-thiazolyl)-2-hydroxyiminoacetamido]-3- vinylcephem-4-carboxylic acid, also known by the generic name Cefdinir (1) has been accomplished in a single step by coupling with 7-amino-3-vinylcephem-4- carboxylic acid (7) with purity of greater than 99% by HPLC.

Cefdinir, a broad spectrum third-generation cephalosporin for oral administration, was prepared by the following synthetic pathway: synthesis of diphenylmethyl 7β-amino-3-vinyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylate hydrochloride from 7-aminocephalosporanic acid (7-ACA), preparation of sodium 2-(2-tritylaminothiazol-4-yl)-(Z)-2-(tritylhydroxyimino) acetate from ethyl acetoacetate, coupling of both intermediaries to obtain diphenylmethyl 7β-[2-(2-tritylaminothiazol-4-yl)-(Z)-2-tritylhydroxyimino-3- vinyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylate and final cleavage of trityl and diphenylmethyl protective groups. This procedure allows to obtain better yields of cefdinir and to avoid the use of diketene during the synthesis of this antibiotic by the previously reported method.
