Abstract
Broad spectrum cephalosporin antibiotics represented by the betaine structure of the formula ##STR1## wherein R is a 5-membered amino-substituted heterocyclic containing oxygen and nitrogen; R' is e.g., hydrogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl; and bicyclicpyridinium is a thienopyridinium or a furopyridinium group; are prepared by reacting a silylated 3-iodomethyl cephalosporin with a thienopyridine, e.g., thieno[2,3-b]pyridine or a furopyridine. The compounds are potent antibacterials against gram-positive and gram-negative organisms. Pharmaceutical compositions and a method for treating bacterial infections are also provided.
