Abstract

Treatment of a 7-imido-3-cephem carboxylic acid ester with a thiolating agent in the presence of a strong base yields a 4-(substituted thio)-2-cephem derivative which can be made to rearrange by use of a strong acid to obtain a 2-substituted thio-2-cephem derivative which has antimicrobial activity.
