EXAMPLE 15
To a solution of benzyl 7.beta.-(2-phenoxyacetamido)-1-oxadethia-2-oxocepham-4.alpha.-carboxylate (50 mg) in methylene chloride (1.5 ml) was added anisole (0.195 g) followed by addition of a solution of aluminum chloride (79 mg) in nitromethane (0.53 ml) under ice-cooling. The mixture was stirred for 35 minutes at the same temperature and then for a further 10 minutes without an ice-bath. The reaction mixture was poured into a mixture of ethyl acetate and water and the aqueous layer was acidified with dil. hydrochloric acid. The organic layer was separated, washed with an aqueous solution of sodium chloride, dried over magnesium sulfate and then evaporated. The residue was triturated with diethyl ether and precipitates were collected by filtration and then dried to give 7.beta.-(2-phenoxyacetamido)-1-oxadethia-2-oxocepham-4.alpha.-carboxylic acid (19 mg).
