Abstract
This invention provides a process for preparing a 2,2-bishalomethylpenam derivative represented by the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 represents a lower alkyl group, aryl group, arylmethyl group, arylcarbonyl group or aryloxymethyl group, R.sup.2 represents a carboxyl-protecting group, X.sup.1 and X.sup.2 are the same or different and represent a halogen atom, the process being characterized in that a disulfide represented by the formula ##STR2## wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and X.sup.1 are as defined above and R.sup.3 represents an aryl group or heterocyclic group is subjected to an electrolytic reaction in a solvent in the presence of a halogen acid and/or halogen salt.
