1. According to the invention, the products of the general formula (I) for which R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 have the definitions given above, except for representing alkyl substituted by hydroxyl, amino or alkylamino, can be obtained by the action of a product, optionally prepared in situ, of the general formula ##STR10## [in which R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are defined as above and R.sub.11 and R'.sub.11, which are identical or different, represent either groups of the general formula
-X.sub.2 R.sub.12 (X)
in which X.sub.2 is an oxygen atom and R.sub.12 represents an alkyl or phenyl radical, or one of R.sub.11 and R'.sub.11 represents a radical of the general formula (X), in which X.sub.2 is oxygen or sulphur, and the other represents an amino radical of the general formula ##STR11## in which R.sub.13 and R.sub.14 are defined like R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 in the general formula (IX), or R.sub.11 and R'.sub.11 each represent a radical of the general formula (XI)] with a cephalosporin derivative of the general formula ##STR12## in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are defined as above, and the derivative is in the 3-methyl-bicyclooct-2-ene or 3-methylbicyclooct-3-ene or 3-methylene-bicyclooctane form.
The reaction is in general carried out in an organic solvent, such as dimethylformamide, hexamethyl-phosphorotriamide, acetonitrile, dimethylacetamide or a mixture of solvents (e.g. dimethylformamide/tetrahydrofurane, dimethylformamide/dimethylacetamide, dimethylformamide/ether or dimethylformamide/dioxane) at a temperature between 20.degree. C. and the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture.
If a product of the general formula (IX), in which the radical (XI) is different from -NR.sub.3 R.sub.4, is chosen, it is preferable to choose a product of this type in such a way that the amine HNR.sub.13 R.sub.14 is more volatile than HNR.sub.3 R.sub.4.
2. According to the invention, the products of the general formula (I) in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are defined as above and R.sub.3 and R.sub.4, which are identical or different, represent alkyl radicals susbstituted by hydroxyl, amino or alkylamino, can be obtained by transenamination from a product of the general formula (I), in which R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 represent alkyl radicals, preferably methyl.
The reaction is carried out by the action of an amine of the general formula ##STR13## (in which R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 have the corresponding definitions) on a product of the general formula (I), and the conditions used are similar to those described previously for the action of a product of the general formula (IX) on a derivative of the general formula (XII).
The products of the general formula (IX) can be prepared in accordance with the methods described by H. BREDERECK et al., Chem. Ber. 101, 41 (1968), Chem. Ber. 101, 3058 (1968) and Chem. Ber. 106, 3725 (1973).

It is to be understood that the acid of the general formula (XV) in the syn- or anti-form, or as a mixture of these forms, respectively gives the products of the general formula (XII) in the syn- or anti-form or as a mixture of these forms.
In general, the condensation of the products of the general formula (XV), in which the acid group is free, with the 7-amino-cephalosporin of the general formula (XIV) is carried out in an organic solvent such as dimethylformamide, acetonitrile, tetrahydrofurane, methylene chloride or chloroform, in the presence of a condensation agent such as a carbodiimide (for example dicyclohexylcarbodiimide), N,N'-carbonyldiimidazole or 2-ethoxy-1-ethoxycarbonyl-1,2-dihydro-quinoline, at a temperature of between -20.degree. and 40.degree. C.
If a reactive derivative of the acid of the general formula (XV) is used, it is possible to employ the anhydride, a mixed anhydride or a reactive ester of the general formula ##STR16## (in which R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 are defined as above, and Z represents a succinimido, benzotriazol-1-yl, 4-nitrophenyl, 2,4-dinitrophenyl, pentachlorophenyl or phthalimido radical or an acid halide for example the acid chloride.
If the anhydride, a mixed anhydride or an acid halide (any of which may be prepared in situ) is employed, the condensation is carried out in an inert organic solvent such as an ether (for example tetrahydrofurane or dioxane), a chlorinated solvent (for example chloroform or methylene chloride), an amide (for example dimethylformamide or dimethylacetamide) or a ketone (for example acetone), or in mixtures of the above solvents [in the presence of an acid acceptor such as an epoxide (for example propylene oxide) or such as a nitrogen-containing organic base, e.g. pyridine, dimethylaminopyridine, N-methylmorpholine or a trialkylamine (for example triethylamine)] or in an aqueous organic medium in the presence of an alkaline condensation agent such as sodium bicarbonate, and the temperature used is between -40.degree. and +40.degree. C.
If a reactive ester of the general formula (XVI) is employed, the reaction is in general carried out in the presence of a trialkylamine (for example treithylamine) in an organic solvent such as dimethylformamide, at a temperature of between 0.degree. and 40.degree. C.
The cephalosporin derivatives of the general formulae (XII) and (XIV), in whch R.sub.2 represents a radical of the general formula (V), can be obtained by esterification of the corresponding acid by any method which is in itself known for preparing an ester from an acid without affecting the remainder of the molecule.
In general, an alkali metal salt or a tertiary amine salt of a product of the general formula ##STR17## in which R.sub.1 is defined as above, or ##STR18## [in which the position of the double bond is defined as for the product of the general formulae (XII) and (XIV) and, where appropriate, the amine group of the radical R.sub.1 is protected] is reacted with a halide of the general formula ##STR19## in which R.sub.9 and R.sub.10 are defined as above and X represents a halogen atom, in an inert solvent such as dimethylformamide, at a temperature of between 0.degree. and 30.degree.

The products of the general formula (XX) also exist in the form of mixtures of these isomeric forms.
The products of the general formula (XX) can be obtained from the products of the general formula (I) by employing the following procedures:
The products of the general formula ##STR23## [in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are defined as above and which are in the 3-(2-oxoethyl)-bicyclooct-2-ene or 3-oxoethylidenebicyclooctane form] are prepared by hydrolysis, in an acid medium, of the enamine of the general formula (I) or of a mixture of its isomers.
Preferably, an enamine of the general formula (I) in which R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 represent a methyl radical is hydrolysed.
The procedure is generally carried out in an organic acid (for example formic acid or acetic acid) or an inorganic acid (for example hydrochloric acid or sulphuric acid) in the presence or absence of a solvent, in an aqueous or organic medium, at a temperature of between -20.degree. C. and the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture, after which, if appropriate, the mixture is treated with an inorganic base (an alkali metal bicarbonate) or an organic base (a tertiary amine or pyridine).
If the process is carried out in an organic medium, the hydrolysis is effected by adding water to the reaction mixture.
If the process is carried out in the presence of a solvent, it is not necessary for the solvent to be miscible with the aqueous acid phase. Where it is not miscible, contact is effected by vigorous stirring.
Amongst the solvents which can be used there may be mentioned the chlorinated solvents, ethyl acetate, tetrahydrofurane, acetonitrile, dimethylforamide and the alcohols.
To carry out this reaction is is not absolutely necessary to have purified the intermediate of the general formula (I).
The products of the general formula ##STR24## in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are defined as above and which are in the 3-(2-oxoethyl)-bicyclooct-2-ene or 3-oxoethylidenebicyclooctane form can be obtained by oxidation of the products of the general formula (XXIIIa) by application of the method described in German Patent Application 2,637,176.
The products of the general formula ##STR25## [in which R.sub.1 ' is defined like R.sub.1 above and R'.sub.2 has the definition corresponding to R.sub.2 or represents hydrogen, or R.sub.1 ' is a radical of the general formula (II) in which R.sub.6 is hydrogen and R.sub.2 ' is defined like R.sub.2 in a ) or represents hydrogen, it being understood that if n=0 the product is in the bicylooct-2-ene or bicyclooct-3-ene form and if n=1 the product is in the bicyclooct-2-ene form, the substituent on the carbon atom in the 3-position of the bicyclooctene exhibits the E or Z steroisomeric configuration and the symbol R.sub.15 represents a radical of the general formula
R'.sub.15 -SO.sub.2 O- (XXV)
or
R.sub.15 "-COO- (XXVI)
in which R.sub.15 ' represents an alkyl, trifluoromethyl or trichloromethyl radical, or a phenyl radical which is unsubstituted or substituted by a halogen atom or by an alkyl or nitro radical and R".sub.15 is defined like R.sub.15 or represents an acylmethyl, 2-acylethyl, 2-acylpropyl, alkoxycarbonylmethyl, 2-alkoxycarbonylethyl or 2-alkoxycarbonylpropyl radical] can be prepared by the action of an activated form of an acid R.sub.15 ' SO.sub.3 H or R.sub.15 ' COOH, of the type
(R.sub.15 ' SO.sub.2).sub.2 O (XXVII)
ti R.sub.15 ' SO.sub.2 Hal (XXVIII)
(R.sub.15 ' CO).sub.2 O (XXIX)
R".sub.15 CO Hal (XXX)
[in which formulae R.sub.15 ' and R.sub.15 ' are defined as above and Hal represents a halogen atom] on a product of the general formula (XXIIIa) or (XXIIIb) or on a mixture of these isomers, followed, where appropriate, by reduction of the sulphoxide obtained and, where necessary, by the removal of the protective groups of the amine group of the radical of the general formula (II) and/or, if appropriate, of the protective groups of the acid group, if it is desired to obtain a product of the general formula (XXIV) in which the amine and/or acid groups are free.
It is to be understood that if R.sub.1 is a radical of the general formula (II), in which R.sub.5 is a hydrogen atom, it is necessary that the oxime should be protected. The protection, and the removal of the protective group, are carried out in accordance with the methods described above.
In general, the process is carried out in the presence of a tertiary base of the type ##STR26## where X.sub.1, Y.sub.1 and Z.sub.1 represent alkyl or phenyl radicals or optionally 2 of them form a ring with the nitrogen atom to which they are bonded (for example in the presence of triethylamine or of N,N-dimethylaniline), in a chlorinated organic solvent (for example methylene chloride), in an ester (for example ethyl acetate), in an ether (for example dioxane or tetrahydrofurane), in an amide (for example dimethylacetamide or dimethylformamide), in acetonitrile or N-methylpyrrolidone, or directly in a basic solvent such as pyridine, or in an aqueous organic medium in the presence of an alkaline condensation agent (for example an alkali metal bicarbonate, sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide) at a temperature of between -78.degree. C. and the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture.
Where appropriate, the reaction is carried out under nitrogen.
For carrying out this reaction it is not absolutely necessary to have purified the intermediate of the general formulae (XXIIIa) and (XXIIIb).
The reduction of the S-oxide can be carried out under the conditions described in German Patent Application 2,637,176.
Where necessary, the removal of the protective radicals from the amine group of the radical of the general formula (II), and from the acid group, can be effected simulaneously or successively.
By way of example:
1. The removal of the protective groups from amines is effected as follows:
in the case of a tert.-butoxycarbonyl, trityl, p-methoxybenzyloxycarbonyl or formyl radical: by treatment in an acid medium. Preferably, trifluoroacetic acid is used and the process is carried out at a temperature of between 0.degree. and 20.degree. C., or anhydrous or aqueous formic acid is used, or para-toluenesulphonic acid or methanesulphonic acid in acetone or acetonitrile at a temperature of between 20.degree. C. and the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture. Under these conditions, the product of the general formula (I) can be obtained in the form of a trifluoroacetate, a solvate with formic acid, a dimethylsulphonate or a para-toluenesulphonate, from which the amine group can be liberated by any method which is in itself known for obtaining an amine from one of its salts without affecting the remainder of the molecule. In particular, this is effected by bringing into contact with an ion exchange resin or by the action of an organic base;
in the case of a 2,2,2-trichloro-ethoxycarbonyl or p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl radical: by reduction (especially by treatment with zinc in acetic acid);
in the case of a chloroacetyl or trichloroacetyl radical: by application of the method described in the French patent published uner No. 2,243,199;
in the case of a benzyl, dibenzyl or benzyloxycarbonyl radical: by catalytic hydrogenation;
in the case of a trifluoroacetyl radical: by treatment in a basic medium.
2. The removal of the protective groups from the carboxyl radical is effected as follows:
in the case of a tert.-butyl p-methoxybenzyl or benzhydryl group: by treatment in an acid medium, under the conditions described above for the removal of a protective trityl radical rom the amino group; in the case of the benzhydryl radical, the process can be carried out in the presence of anisole;
in the case of a methoxymethyl group: by treatment in a dilute acid medium;
in the case of a p-nitrobenzyl group: by reduction (especially by treatment with zinc in acetic acid, or by hydrogenolysis).
It is also possible to obtain the products of the general formula ##STR27## in which R.sub.15 and n are defined as above,
if n=0, the product is in the bicyclooct-2-ene or bicyclooct-3-ene form and
if n=1, the product is in the bicyclooct-2-ene form,
the substituent on the carbon atom in the 3-position of the bicyclooctane exhibits the E or Z stereoisomeric configuration,
and R.sub.1 ' represents
(a.sub.1) a radical of the general formula (II) [in which R.sub.6 is defined as above in a) or represents a hydrogen atom, or
(b.sub.1) an azidoacetyl or cyanoacetyl radical, or a radical of the general formula (VI) in which Ar is substituted phenyl [the substituents being trifluoromethyl, cyano or nitro radicals, of which at least one is located in the meta- or in the para-position] or a radical of the general formula (VIII) [in which Ar is defined as above and B is amino, azido, cyano or carbamyl] or a 2(3-sydnone)-alkanoyl radical (of which the alkanoyl part contains 1 to 3 carbon atoms) or a radical of the general formula (XXII) and R".sub.2 assumes the corresponding definitions of R.sub.2 or R.degree..sub.2, by proceeding as follows:
A 7-amino-cephalosporin of the general formula ##STR28## [in which R.sub.2 ", R.sub.15 and n are defined as above and the position of the double bond as well as the configuration of the substituent in the 3-position are defined as for the product of the general formula (XXIV)] by elimination of the radical R.sub.1 ' or if appropriate by simultaneous elimination of the radicals R.sub.1 ' and R.sub.2 ' from a product of the general formula (XXIV) [in which R.sub.1 ' is defined like R.sub.1 above in a), with the exception of representing a radical of the general formula (II), or represents a 5-amino-adipyl radical of which the amine group and acid group are protected, or radicals of the general formula (VI) or (VII) as defined for R.sub.1 in b), and R.sub.2 ' has the corresponding definitions].
The removal of the protective radical R.sub.1 ' is effected by any known method for liberating an amine group without affecting the remainder of the molecule.
By way of example, the following methods may be mentioned:
if R.sub.1 ' represents trityl, benzhydryl, trichloroacetyl, chloroacetyl, tert.-butoxycarbonyl, trichloroethoxycarbonyl, benzyloxycarbonyl, p-methoxybenzyloxycarbonyl and p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl: according to the methods mentioned above for liberating the amino radical of the product of the general formula (XXIV);
if R.sub.1 ' represents formyl, 2-chloro-1,1-dimethylethoxycarbonyl, 2-cyano-1,1-dimethyl-ethoxycarbonyl, 3,5-dimethoxy-benzyloxycarbonyl, diphenylmethoxycarbonyl, 2-(biphenyl-4-yl)-isopropoxycarbonyl, vinyloxycarbonyl, allyloxycarbonyl, quinol-8-yl-oxycarbonyl, o-nitrophenylthio or p-nitrophenylthio, and if R.sub.1 'NH- is replaced by dimethylaminomethyleneimino, 3,4-dimethoxybenzylideneimino or 4-nitrobenzylideneimino: by hydrolysis in an acid medium:
if R.sub.1 ' represents 2,2,2-trichloroethyl or 2,2,2-trichloro-1,1-dimethyl-ethoxycarbonyl: by treatment with zinc in acetic acid;
if R.sub.1 ' represents acetyl, benzoyl, phenylacetyl, phenoxyacetyl or protected 5-amino-adipyl: according to the method described in Belgian Patent No. 758,800;
if R.sub.1 ' represents trimethylsilylethoxycarbonyl: according to the method described by H. GERLACH. Helv. Chim. Acta 60 (8), 3039 (1977); and
if R.sub.1 ' represents p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl: by hydrogenolysis in the presence of palladium.
The products of the general formula (XXXII) are thus prepared by the action of an acid, represented by the general formula
R.sub.1 ' OH (XXIV)
in which R.sub.1 ' is defined as above, or by the action of a reactive derivative of this acid, on the 7-amino-cephalosporin of the general formula (XXXIII) or, where appropriate, on a mixture of the isomers of this product, followed, if appropriate, by the reduction of the oxide obtained and then, if appropriate, by the removal of the protective radicals.
The process is carried out analogously to the method described above for obtaining a product of the general formula (XII) from products of the general formulae (XIV) and (XV), or in accordance with the methods mentioned in U.S. Pat. No. 4,065,620.
Where necessary, the reduction of the oxide as well as the removal of the protective radicals from the amine group and from the acid group can be effected under the conditions described for obtaining the product of the general formula (XXIV).
I. The 3-thiovinyl-cephalosporins of the general formula (XX) in which R does not contain a substituent of the general formula (XXIc), can be prepared by the action of a thiol of the general formula
R-SH (XXXV)
(or of one of its alkali metal salts or alkaline earth metal salts), in which R, which is defined as above in .alpha.) or in .beta.) with the exception of containing a substitutent of the general formula (XXIc), is optionally protected, on a cephalosporin derivative (or on a mixture of the isomers) of the general formula ##STR29## ]in which n and R.sub.15 are defined as above, R.sub.1 "' is defined like R.sub.1 ' or assumes the meanings given above for R.sub.1 in b) and R.sub.2 "' has the corresponding definition of R.sub.2 " or of R.sub.2 ], followed by reduction of the sulphoxide obtained (if n=1) and then, if appropriate, by removal of the protective radicals.
If it is desired to obtain a product of the general formula (XX) in which R contains a formyl or acylalkyl radical, a thiol of the general formula (XXXV), in which R is protected in the form of an acetal (as defined by the general formulae (XXIa) and (XXIb) is employed).
It is to be understood that if the radical R of the product of the general formula (XXXV) is prone to interfere with the reaction, it is preferable to protect this group by any method which is in itself known and which does not adversely affect the remainder of the molecule.
IF an amino or alkylamino group is concerned, the protection is effected by a radical such as R.sub.6 defined above.
If a carboxyl group is concerned, the protection is effected by methoxymethyl, tert.-butyl, benzhydryl, p-nitrobenzyl or p-methoxybenzyl radicals.
If hydroxyl groups are concerned, protection is effected by trityl, tetrahydropyranyl or 2-methoxy-prop-2-yl radicals or, where 2,3-dihydroxypropyl or 1,3-dihyroxyprop-2-yl radicals are concerned, protection is effected as a cyclic acetal in the form of 2,2-dimethyldioxolan-4-yl-methyl or 2,2-dimethyl-dioxan-5-yl radicals.
Furthermore it is to be understood that if the radical R of the product of the general formula (XXXV) contains a a hydroxyl, sulpho, sulphinyl or sulphonyl radical, it is preferable to employ a product of the general formula (XXXVI) in which n=0.
It is also to be understood that if in the general formula (XXXVI) the radical R.sub.1 "' represents a radical of the general formula (II), in which R.sub.5 is a hydrogen atom, it is necessary to protect the oxime under the conditions described above.
The reaction of the products of the general formulae (XXXV) and (XXXVI) is in general carried out in the presence of a base such as a pyridine or a tertiary organic base of the general formula (XXXI). For example, diisopropylethylamine or diethylphenylamine are used.
If a salt of the thiol of the general formula (XXXV) is used, it is not necessary to work in the presence of an organic base such as defined above.
Advantageously, the reaction is carried out in an organic solvent such as dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran or acetonitrile or in a mixture of the above-mentioned solvents.
It is also possible to carry out the reaction in the presence of an alkali metal bicarbonate in a solvent as defined above, optionally in the presence of water. The reaction is carried out at a temperature of between -20.degree. C. and the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture, and the chosen temperature can be varied in accordance with the thiol employed. Equally, the reaction time can vary from 5 minutes to 48 hours, depending on the thiol employed.
Where appropriate, the reaction is carried out under nitrogen.
Preferably, if it is desired to use a bicyclooct-3-ene of the general formula (XXXVI), in which R.sub.1 "' represents a radical of the general formula (II), a product in which R.sub.2 "' is other than hydrogen is employed.
The reduction of the oxide and the removal of the amine, acid or oxime protective groups are effected in accordance with the methods described above.
The removal of the protective radicals from hydroxyl groups is effected under the conditions described above for the oxime protective radicals, namely:
by acidolysis, for example with trifluoroacetic acid, aqueous or non-aqueous formic acid, or paratoluenesulphonic acid, where the trityl, tetrahydropyranyl, 2,2-dimethyl-dioxolan-4-yl-methyl or 2,2-dimethyl-dioxan-5-yl radical is concerned. (When aqueous or non-aqueous formic acid is used, the liberation of the hydroxyl groups, which are protected in the form of a cyclic acetal, may field, at least in part, the corresponding mono- or di-formic esters, and these optionally may be separated by chromatography) or
according to the method described in Belgian Patent No. 875,379, where the 2 -methoxy-prop-2-yl radical is concerned.
The removal of the groups of the general formula (XXIa) or (XXIb) (if it is desired to obtain a product of the general formula (XX) in which R contains a formyl or acylalkyl radical) is effected as follows:
in the presence of a sulphonic acid (for example methanesulphonic acid or p-toluenesulphonic acid) in an organic solvent (for example acetonitrile or acetone), optionally in the presence of water and optionally in the presence of an acetalisable reactant such as acetone, glyoxylic acid, benzaldehyde or pyruvic acid, at a temperature of between 20.degree. C. and the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture,
or, if the radical R is a 5,6-dioxo-1,4,5,6-tetrahydro--1,2,4-triazin-3-yl radical, by the action of aqueous formic acid (preferably containing less than 10% of water), in the presence or absence of silica, or by trans-acetalisation in the presence of an acetalisable reactant as defined above.

A product, or a mixture of isomers of the product, of the general formula (XXIV) [as defined for the preparation of the 7-amino-cephalosporin of the formula (XXXIII)] is treated with a thiol of the general formula (XXXV) (or with one of its alkali metal salts or alkaline earth metal salts), after which, if appropriate, the sulphoxide obtained (if n=1) is reduced and, if appropriate, the protective radicals of R are removed, to give a product of the general formula ##STR30## in which n is defined as above, R'.sub.1 and R'.sub.2 are defined as above for the preparation of the product of the general formula (XXXIII), and R assumes the corresponding definitions.

The protection, and the removal of the protective radicals, are carried out under the conditions described above.
It is also to be understood that if R contains a hydroxyl, sulpho, sulphinyl or sulphonyl substituent, it is preferred to employ a product of the general formula (XXXVIII) in which n=0.
III. The 3-thiovinyl-cephalosporins of the general formula (XX), in which R does not contain a substituent of the general formula (XXIc), can also be obtained by the action of a thiolo-ester of the general formula
R"'.sub.1 --SR (XL)
in which R"'.sub.1 is defined as earlier and R is defined as above [it being understood that, if it contains an amino or alkylamino substituent, this substituent is protected, if it contains a hydroxyl or carboxyl substituent, this substituent is free or protected and if it contains a formyl or acylalkyl substituent, this substituent is protected in the form of an acetal of the general formula (XXIa) or XXIb)] on a 7-amino-cephalosporin of the general formula (XXXIII), followed by the reduction of the sulphoxide obtained if n=1, and, where necessary, by the removal of the protective radicals.
It is also to be understood that the radicals R "'.sub.1 which contain a group which is prone to interfere with the reaction have been protected beforehand. The same is true of the oxime if R"'.sub.1 represents a radical of the general formula (II), in which R.sub.5 is a hydrogen atom.
Equally, as for the processes described above, if R contains a hydroxyl, sulpho, sulphinyl or sulphonyl substituent, it is preferred to employ a product of the general formula (XXXIII) in which n=0.
The protection, and the removal of the protective radicals, are carried out under the conditions described above.
The reaction of the thiolo-ester with the 7-aminocephalosporin of the general formula (XXXIII) is in general carried out in the presence of an acid acceptor such as an organic base, more especially in the presence of a pyridine or of a tertiary organic base of the general formula (XXXI), especially triethylamine, N,N-diisopropyl-N-ethylamine, diethylphenylamine or N-methylmorpholine.
The reaction is advantageously carried out in an organic solvent such as an amide (for example dimethylformamide or dimethylacetamide), an ether (for example tetrahydrofurane or dioxane), a chlorinated solvent (for example chloroform or methylene chloride), a ketone (for example acetone) or a nitrile (for example acetonitrile) or in a mixture of these solvents. It is also possible to carry out the reaction in the presence of an alkali metal bicarbonate in one of the abovementioned solvents, optionally in the presence of water.
The reaction is carried out at a temperature of between -20.degree. C. and the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture. Optionally, the reaction is carried out under nitrogen.
The reduction of the S-oxide is carried out under the conditions described above.
The thiolo-esters of the general formula (XL) can be prepared by the action of an acid, or of a reactive derivative of an acid, of the general formula
R"'.sub.1 --OH (XXXIXa)
on a thiol of the general formula (XXXV) (or on an alkali metal salt or alkaline earth metal salt of this thiol), followed, where appropriate, by removal of the protective radicals.
In the general formula (XXXIXa), R"'.sub.1 represents a radical of the general formula (II) in which R.sub.5 is other than hydrogen, or is defined like R.sub.1 in b.
It is to be understood that the amino or alkylamino substituents of R"'.sub.1 or R are protected and that the hydroxyl or carboxyl substituents are free or protected.
It is also to be understood that the radical R is protected in the form of an acetal if it desired to prepare a product of the general formula (XX) in which R contains a formyl radical.
The reaction is carried out under the conditions described above for the preparation of a product of the general formula (XII) from a product of the general formula (XIV) and a reactive ester of the general formula (XVI).
If it is desired to obtain a product in which R contains a carboxyl or sulpho radical, it is preferable to treat the corresponding thiol with a reactive derivative of the acid R'".sub.1 OH.
If it is desired to obtain a thiolo-ester in which R"'.sub.1 is a radical of the general formula (II), as defined above for R.sup.o.sub.1, it is possible to remove the tert.-butoxycarbonyl radical, protecting the aminothiazole, by treatment in an anhydrous acid medium. In this case, the product is obtained either in the form of a salt or in the form of a solvate with the acid employed. Preferably, trifluoroacetic acid is employed and the reaction is carried out at between 0.degree. and 20.degree. C. The trityl group protecting the oxime can be removed by acidolysis, for example with anhydrous trifluoroacetic acid.
Where necessary, the removal of the trityl group protecting a hydroxyl substituent of the thiolo-ester is effected under the conditions described above for the liberation of the oxime.
It is advantageous only to remove the protective groups after the reaction of the thiolo-ester with the 7-amino-cephalosporin.
IV. The 3-thiovinyl-cephalosporins of the general formula (XX), in which R.sup.o.sub.1 represents a radical of the general formula (II), as defined above except for R.sub.5 representing a vinyl radical, and R does not contain a substituent of the general formula (XXIc), can be obtained by proceeding as follows:
(1) (a) An acid halide of the general formula ##STR32## in which Hal and Hal' are chlorine or bromine atoms and R'.sub.5 is an alkyl or cyanomethyl radical, is reacted with a 7-amino-cephalosporin of the general formula (XXXVIII), after which, where appropriate, the sulphoxide obtained (if n=1) is reduced, and the protective radicals are removed.
The reaction is in general carried out in an aqueous organic medium, for example water/ether (tetrahydrofurane or dioxane), water/ketone (acetone) or water/chlorinated solvent (chloroform or methylene chloride), in the presence of an alkaline condensation agent such as an alkali metal bicarbonate (for example sodium bicarbonate) at a temperature of between -40.degree. and +40.degree. C.
It is also possible to proceed by analogy with the method described in French Patent Application 2,399,418.
It is to be understood that if the radical R of the 7-amino-cephalosporin contains an amino or alkylamino radical, the latter is protected, and if the radical R contains a hydroxyl, carboxyl, formyl or acylalkyl radical, the latter is free or protected.
The protection, and the removal of the protective radicals, are effected under the conditions described above.
(b) Alternatively, a product of the general formula ##STR33## in which R, R'.sub.2, Hal and n are defined as above, is treated with a nitrosylating agent by analogy with the method described in French Patent Application 2,399,418, after which, if appropriate, the sulphoxide is reduced and the protective radicals are removed.
It is to be understood that if the radical R of the product of the general formula (XLII) contains an amino, alkylamino or formyl radical, the latter is protected, and if the radical R contains a hydroxyl, carboxyl or acylalkyl substituent, the latter is free or protected.
(2) A thiourea of the general formula
R'.sub.6 NH--CS--NH.sub.2 (XLIII)
(in which R'.sub.6 is defined like R.sub.6 except for representing chloroacetyl or trichloroacetyl, or represents a hydrogen atom) is then reacted with the product of the general formula ##STR34## obtained above as described in (a) or (b), in which R.sub.5, R, R'.sub.2 and n are defined as above in IV and Hal represents a chlorine or bromine atom, followed, where appropriate, by the reduction of the sulphoxide and the removal of the protective radicals.
In general, the reaction is carried out in an aqueous, organic or aqueous-organic medium, for example in solvents or mixtures of solvents such as alcohols (methanol or ethanol), ketones (acetone), chlorinated solvents (chloroform or ethylene chloride), nitriles (acetonitrile), amides (dimethylformamide or dimethylacetamide), ethers (tetrahydrofurane or dioxane), esters (ethyl acetate) or acids (acetic acid or formic acid) in the presence or absence of a base such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, the alkali metal carbonates and bicarbonates, the alkali metal salts of carboxylic acids (sodium formate or sodium acetate) or the tertiary amines (triethylamine, trimethylamine or pyridine), at a temperature of between -30.degree. and 60.degree. C.
If it is desired to obtain a product of the general formula (XX) in which R contains a formylalkyl or acylalkyl radical, this radical can be protected, as an acetal, in the form of a radical of the general formula (XXIa) or (XXIb), as defined above.
The reduction of the sulphoxide and the removal of the protective radicals is effected under the conditions described above.
The products of the general formula (XLI) can be obtained by halogenation of a product of the general formula ##STR35## in which R'.sub.5 and Hal' are defined as above, by any method which is in itself known for the preparation of halogenated derivatives and which does not adversely affect the remainder of the molecule.
If it is desired to obtain a product of the general formula (XLI) in which Hal represents a bromine atom, the reaction is carried out with bromine in the presence of a catalyst, which is either an acid catalyst such as hydrobromic acid, hydrochloric acid or a sulphonic acid (methanesulphonic acid, anhydrous p-toluenesulphonic acid or benzenesulphonic acid) or in the presence of ultraviolet light.
If it is desired to obtain a product of the general formula (XLI) in which Hal is a chlorine atom, the reaction is carried out with chlorine in the presence of a catalyst as mentioned above, or with sulphuryl chloride.
The halogenation is carried out in an organic solvent, such as the chlorinated solvents (for example methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, dichloroethane or trichloroethane) or the ethers (for example ethyl ether or dioxane), or in a mixture of these solvents, at a temperature of between -40.degree. C. and the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture.
The products of the general formula (XLV) can be prepared from the corresponding esters in accordance with the method described in French Patent Application 2,414,508.
The esters themselves can be prepared by application of the method described by R. Bucourt et al., Tetrahedron, 34, 2233 (1978).
The products of the general formula (XLII) can be obtained from a 7-amino-cephalosporin of the general formula (XXXVIII) by the action of a product of the general formula
Hal--CH.sub.2 --COCH.sub.2 --COHal (XLVI)
in which Hal is defined as above (which product may be formed in situ), by employing the conditions described above for condensing a product of the general formula (XLI) with a product of the general formula (XXXVIII), or by analogy with the method described in French Patent Application 2,399,418.
V. The 3-thiovinyl-cephalosporins of the general formula (XX) in which R represents a 5,6-dioxo-1,4,5,6-tetrahydro-1,2,4-triazin-3-yl radical substituted in the 4-position, or a 1,3,4-triazol-5-yl or 2-alkoxycarbonyl-1,3,4-triazol-5-yl radical substituted in the 1-position, by an alkyl radical containing 2 to 4 carbon atoms substituted by a carbamyloxy group or by an acyloxy group (of which the acyl part is optionally substituted by an amino, alkylamino or dialkylamino radical), and R.sup.o.sub.1 and R.sup.o.sub.2 have the corresponding definitions, which are functional derivatives of the product of the general formula (XX) in which R is a -.RTM.-alk'-OH radical chosen from amongst 5,6-dioxo-4-hydroxyalkyl-1,4,5,6-tetrahydro-1,2,4-triazin-3-yl, 1-hydroxyalkyl-1,3,4-triazol-5-yl or 2-alkyloxycarbonyl-1-hydroxylalkyl-1,3,4-triazol-5-yl and R.sup.o.sub.1 and R.sup.o.sub.2 are defined as above, can be obtained from a product of the general formula ##STR36## in which R.sub.5, R.sub.6, R'.sub.2, .RTM.-alk'-OH and n are defined as above, by any known method for obtaining an ester or a carbamate from an alcohol without affecting the remainder of the molecule, followed, where appropriate, by reduction of the sulphoxide obtained and removal of the protective radicals.
The esterification is carried out at a temperature of between -50.degree. C. and the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture, especially by condensation of the anhydride of the acid (or of some other reactive derivative of the acid, for example the halide) in an inert organic solvent such as an ether (for example tetrahydrofurane), a chlorinated solvent (for example methylene chloride) or a mixture of these solvents, in the presence of a nitrogen-containing base such as pyridine, 4-dimethylamino-pyridine or a trialkylamine (triethylamine) or of an alkaline condensation agent (for example sodium bicarbonate) followed, where appropriate, by reduction of the S-oxide obtained and removal of the protective groups in accordance with the methods described above.
The carbamate is obtained by any known method which does not adversely affect the remainder of the molecule. In particular, the reaction of a chlorosulphonyl isocyanate or trichloroacetyl isocyanate in an inert organic solvent, for example tetrahydrofurane or acetonitrile, at a temperature of between -80.degree. and 20.degree. C., followed by removal of the protective groups, is employed. VI.

It is to be understood that the products which contain a sulpho, sulphonyl or sulphamyl group are preferably prepared from a product of the general formula (XX)" in which n=0.
Furthermore, if it is desired to prepare a product of which the radical R contains an amino or hydroxyl group, it is necessary to protect these radicals in the reactant used. Equally, if R.sub.5 represents a hydrogen atom, it is necessary to protect the oxime.
If it is desired to prepare a product of the general formula (XX) in which the radical R contains an alkylsulphonylamino, sulphamylamino, acylamino (substituted or unsubstituted), alkoxycarbonylamino or dialkylureido substituent, the reaction is advantageously effected by treatment with, respectively, the corresponding chlorosulphonyl, acid chloride, chloroformate or dialkylcarbamyl chloride derivative, under the conditions described above for the reaction of the acid chloride of the general formula (XV) with the 7-amino-cephalosporin of the general formula (XIV).
If it is desired to prepare a product of the general formula (XX) in which the radical R contains a sulphoamino, alkylsulphonylamino or (substituted or unsubstituted) acylamino substituent, the reaction can be effected by means of the anhydride of the corresponding acid, under the conditions described above for reacting the product of the general formula (XV) in the form of an anhydride.

If it is desired to obtain a product of the general formula (XX) in which R contains a ureido or alkylureido radical, the corresponding product of the general formula (XX)" is treated, respectively, with an alkali metal isocyanate or an alkyl isocyanate, in an aqueous-organic medium or organic medium (for example in tetrahydrofurane) at a temperature of between -20.degree. and 60.degree. C.
The reduction, and the removal of the protective radicals, are carried out under the conditions described above. VII.

The reaction is in general carried out in an organic solvent at a temperature of between 20.degree. C. and the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture.
The organic solvents are chosen in accordance with the solubility of the products. If a product of the general formula (XX)"' in which R'.sub.6 and R'.sub.2 are other than hydrogen is employed, it is advantageous to use solvents such as tetrahydrofurane, acetonitrile, alcohols or ketones. If a product of the general formula (XX)"', in which R'.sub.6 and R'.sub.2 are hydrogen atoms, is employed, it is advantageous to carry out the reaction in solvents such as pyridine, dimethylsulphoxide or dimethylformamide.
If it is desired to prepare a product of the general formula (XX) in which the radical R contains a substituent of the general formula (XXIc), the reaction is carried out in an acid medium. VIII. The 3-thiovinyl-cephalosporins of the general formula (XX), in which R.degree..sub.2 represents a radical of the general formula (V), in which R.sub.9 and R.sub.10 are defined as above, can also be obtained by esterification of a product of the general formula (XX), in which R.degree..sub.2 represents a hydrogen atom, and in which the amine group has been protected beforehand, by any method which is in itself known for preparing an ester from an acid without affecting the remainder of the molecule.
In particular, the reaction is carried out under the conditions described above for the preparation of products of the general formula (XII) or (XIV) in which R.sub.2 is a radical of the general formula (V).
The products of the general formulae (XXIV), (XXXII), (XXXIII), (XXXVI), (XXXVII), (XXXVIII), (XLII), or (XLIV), in which n=1, can be obtained by oxidation of the corresponding products in which n=0, in accordance with the method described in German Patent Application 2,637,176.

The cephalosporin derivatives of the general formula (XX) as defined in (.alpha.), and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, exhibit particularly valuable antibacterial properties. They exhibit a remarkable activity, in vitro and in vivo, against Gram-positive and Gram-negative germs:
In vitro, they have proved active at a concentration of between 0.5 and 15 .mu.g/cc against strains of staphylococci sensitive to penicillin G (Staphylococcus aureus Smith), at a concentration of between 1 and 30 .mu.g/cc, against strains of staphylococci resistant to penicillin G (Staphylococcus aureus MB 9), at a concentration of between 0.001 and 1 .mu.g/cc against Escherichia coli, Monod strain, and at a concentration of between 0.06 and 30 .mu.g/cc against Klebsiella pneumoniae.

5,6-Dioxo-4-ethoxycarbonylmethyl-3-thioxo-perhydro-1,2,4-triazone can be obtained as follows:
A solution of ethyl isothiocyanoacetate in anhydrous ethanol (185 cc) is added, in the course of 5 minutes, to a suspension of ethyl hydrazino-oxalate (24.4 g) in anhydrous ethanol (185 cc) at 25.degree. C. The mixture dissolves, after which a white precipitate again forms. The mixture is kept stirred for 20 hours under nitrogen, after which a solution prepared from sodium (8.5 g) in ethanol (185 cc) is added in the course of 15 minutes and the mixture is heated under reflux for 4 hours. The red-brown suspension obtained is concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure (20 mm Hg; 2.7 kPa) and the residue is dissolved by adding 4 N hydrochloric acid (100 cc) and ethyl acetate (2,000 cc). The insoluble matter is filtered off and the organic phase is washed with a saturated sodium chloride solution (4.times.250 cc), dried over magnesium sulphate, filtered and concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure (20 mm Hg; 2.7 kPa). This gives a red-brown gum (43 g) which is dissolved in a saturated sodium bicarbonate solution (300 cc). The brown solution obtained is washed with isopropyl ether (3.times.100 cc) and brought to pH 1 with the requisite amount of 1 N hydrochloric acid, and is extracted with ethyl acetate (500 cc). The organic phase is washed with a saturated sodium chloride solution (2.times.50 cc), dried over magnesium sulphate, filtered in the presence of decolorising charcoal and concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure (20 mm Hg; 2.7 kPa). This gives 5,6-dioxo-4-ethoxycarbonylmethyl-3-thioxo-perhydro-1,2,4-triazine (9.5 g) in the form of a brown solid.
