Compounds of formula (I): STR1 wherein: R1 is hydrogen or a hydroxy-protecting group; R2 is alkyl, alkoxy, halogen, optionally substituted phenyl or optionally substituted phenoxy; R3 is optionally substituted pyridyl, optionally substituted quinolyl or phenyl group which has a substituent of formula --CYNR5 R6, where Y is oxygen or sulfur, and R5 and R6 are each alkyl, aryl or aralkyl, or R5 and R6 and the nitrogen to which they are attached together form a heterocyclic group; is R4 hydrogen or an amino-protecting group; and Z is sulfur or oxygen; are valuable intermediates in the preparation of carbapenem compounds and retain a desirable configuration during conversion to such carbapenem compounds. Penem and carbapenem compounds having a group of formula --SA' are prepared from a corresponding compound having a substituted thio, sulfinyl or sulfonyl group at this position by reaction with a compound A'SH (where A' is an organic group) in the presence of a salt of a metal of Group II or III of the Periodic Table.

Penem and carbapenem compounds having a group of formula -SA are prepared from a corresponding compound having a substituted thio, sulphinyl or sulphonyl group at this position by reaction with a compound ASH (where A is various organic groups) in the presence of a salt of a metal of Group II or III of the Periodic Table.
