According to the present invention, the 3,7-disubstituted-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid compounds (I) can be prepared by various processes which are illustrated in the following schemes. ##STR4## wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.5 and A are each as defined above,

Regarding the object compounds (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie), (If) and (Ig) and the starting compounds (III), (IIIa), (VIII), (X) and (XIX), it is to be understood that they include tautomeric isomers.
That is, in case that the group of the formula: ##STR6## (R.sup.1 is as defined above) is contained in the molecules of said object and starting compounds, said group of the formula can also be alternatively represented by its tautomeric formula: ##STR7## (R.sup.1' is imino or a protected imino group). That is, the both of said groups are in the state of equilibrium each other and such tautomerism can be represented by the following equilibrium. ##STR8## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.1' are each as defined above.
These types of tautomerism between the amino-compound and the corresponding imino-compound as stated above have been well known in the literature, and it is obvious to a person skilled in the arts that both of the tautomeric isomers are easily convertible reciprocally and are included within the same category of the compound per se.

C. After cooling, the reaction mixture was washed with ethyl acetate and then thereto was added ethyl acetate. The mixture was adjusted to pH 2 with 10% hydrochloric acid and the ethyl acetate layer was separated, washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and then evaporated. The residue was pulverized with diethyl ether, washed with diethyl ether, collected by filtration and then dried to give the title compound (350 mg.).
