Claims
- 1. A compound of the formula ##STR36## wherein R' is monohaloacetyl, A is methylene or a group of the formula: ##STR37## in which R.sup.2 is hydrogen or lower aliphatic hydrocarbon which may be substituted with halogen, carboxy or pharmaceutically acceptable esterified carboxy,
- R.sup.3 is hydrogen or lower alkyl,
- R.sup.4 is hydrogen, halogen, lower alkyl or a group of the formula:
- --O--R.sup.7
- in which R.sup.7 is lower alkyl and
- R.sup.5 is carboxy or carboxy modified to a pharmaceutically acceptable group from which carboxy may be regenerated, provided that
- (i) R.sup.4 is hydrogen, halogen or a group of the formula
- --O--R.sup.7
- in which R.sup.7 is as defined above, when R.sup.3 is hydrogen,
- (ii) R.sup.4 is lower alkyl, when R.sup.3 is lower alkyl, and pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
- 2. The compound of the claim 1, wherein R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are each hydrogen, and R.sup.5 is carboxy or pharmaceutically acceptable esterified carboxy.
- 3. The compound of the claim 2, wherein A is methylene.
- 4. The compound of the claim 3, which is 7-[2-bromoacetoacetamido]-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid.
- 5. The compound of the claim 3, which is p-nitrobenzyl 7-[2-bromoacetoacetamido]-3-cephem-4-carboxylate.
- 6. The compound of the claim 2, wherein A is a group of the formula: ##STR38## in which R.sup.2 is hydrogen or alkyl.
- 7. The compound of the claim 6, which is 7-[2-(2-bromoacetyl)-2-hydroxyiminoacetamido]-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid (syn isomer).
- 8. The compound of the claim 6, which is p-nitrobenzyl 7-[2-(2-bromoacetyl)-2-hydroxyiminoacetamido]-3-cephem-4-carboxylate (syn isomer).
- 9. The compound of the claim 6, which is 7-[2-(2-bromoacetyl)-2-methoxyiminoacetamido]-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid (syn isomer).
- 10. The compound of the claim 6, which is p-nitrobenzyl 7-[2-(2-bromoacetyl)-2-methoxyiminoacetamido]-3-cephem-4-carboxylate (syn isomer).
