Abstract

This invention relates to a novel process for making a cephem of formula II from a 2-(3-amino-2-oxo-azetidin-1-yl)-2,3-butadienoate intermediate of formula I using an organo-copper reagent. In another aspect, this invention is concerned with said intermediate. ##STR1## In the compounds of Scheme (A), R.sup.1 is a conventional amino protecting group or an acyl group; R.sup.2 is an aromatic heterocyclic or aryl group; R.sup.3 is a conventional carboxy protecting group or --CO.sub.2 R.sup.3 taken together forms a physiologically hydrolyzable ester; and R.sup.4 is a group selected from the group consisting of C.sub.1-6 alkyl, C.sub.2-6 alkenyl, C.sub.2-6 alkynyl, cyclic C.sub.3-6 alkyl, and aryl; and n is 0 or 2. This invention also relates to an intermediate represented by formula ##STR2## in which R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and n are as defined above.
