EXAMPLE 11
P-Toluenesulfonic acid salt of benzyl 7-amino-8-oxo-3-trifluoromethanesulfonyl-5-thia-1,3-diazabicyclo[4,2,0]octane-2-carboxylate (800 mg.) was partitioned between methylene chloride (50 ml.) and a chilled dilute aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate. After said compound was completely dissolved in the methylene chloride layer, it was separated. The remaining aqueous solution was washed twice with methylene chloride (5 ml.), and the methylene chloride layer and washings were combined, dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated to give a residue (550 mg.). This residue and 4-hydroxy-3,5-di-tertbutylbenzaldehyde (415 mg.) was dissolved in a mixture (30 ml.) of benzene and methylene chloride (3:1 by volume) and the solution was heated under reflux for 1.5 hours. After cooling to -15.degree. C., magnesium sulfate (1.2 g.) was added thereto, followed by addition of nickel dioxide (780 mg.). The mixture was stirred at -10.degree. C. for 30 minutes and at room temperature for additional 15 minutes. The reaction mixture was filtered through a pad of Celite and the filter cake was washed with methylene chloride. The filtrate and washings were combined and thereto was added methanol (10 ml.). The solution was allowed to stand at room temperature for 17.5 hours and evaporated to dryness. The resultant residue was dissolved in a mixture of methanol (15 ml.) and methylene chloride (5 ml.) and allowed to stand at room temperature for additional 8 hours. The reaction mixture was evaporated to dryness, and the residue was dissolved in a mixture of methanol (12 ml.) and tetrahydrofuran (6 ml.) and treated with Girard's Reagent T (370 mg.) at room temperature for 7 hours. The resultant mixture was concentrated and poured into a mixture of ethyl acetate (60 ml.) and water, and the separated organic layer was washed three times with water and once with an aqueous solution of sodium chloride. Drying over magnesium sulfate and removal of the solvent left an oil (0.7 g.), which was chromatographed on silica gel (8 g.) with a mixed solvent of benzene and ethyl acetate (10:1 by volume) as an eluent to give an oil (312 mg.) of benzyl 7-amino-7-methoxy-8-oxo-3-trifluoromethanesulfonyl-5-thia-1,3-diazabicyclo[4,2,0]octane-2-carboxylate.
