Abstract: | A series of C(3)-cyclopropyl cephems and carbacephems has been prepared by palladium catalyzed addition of diazomethane to the corresponding C(3)-vinyl derivatives. The phenylglycyl cyclopropyl cephem derivatives exhibit better Gram-positive activity than cephalexin or cefaclor, while the aminothiazole oxime cyclopropyl cephem derivatives were not as active as the corresponding C(3)-vinyl cephems. |
