Abstract

Cephalosporin compounds substituted in the 7-position by a 2-(5- or 6-membered heterocyclic)-2-oximinoacetylamino group and in the 3-position with a thienopyridinium methyl group or a furopyridinium methyl group are broad spectrum antibiotics highly effective in combating bacterial infections of gram-negative and gram-positive microorganisms. The cephalosporins are best prepared by reacting a silylated 7-[2-(heterocyclic)-2-oximinoacetylamino]-3-iodomethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxyl ic acid with the thienopyridine or the furopyridine. Pharmaceutical formulations comprising a compound of the invention and a method for treating bacterial infections comprising their use are also provided.
