Abstract

Penicillin and cephalosporin derivatives characterized by the presence of a nitroalkyl, nitrocycloalkyl, nitrophenylalkyl or nitroanilinoalkyl group in the side chain are antibacterial agents. The compounds, of which 6-(2-nitro-3,3-dimethylbutyrylamido)-penicillanic acid, 7-nitroacetamido-3-methyl-ceph-3-em-4-carboxylic acid, and 6-[D-.alpha.-(2-nitro-2-methylpropionylamido)phenylacetamido] pencillanic acid are typical embodiments, are prepared by reacting 6-amino-penicillanic acid, 7-amino-cephalosporanic acid (or derivative thereof) or an .alpha.-substituted-.alpha.-amino-acetamido-penicillanic acid with an appropriate nitrated carboxylic acid or an equivalent nitrated acylating agent.
