Abstract
Antibacterial penems of formula (I), where R represents a hydrogen atom or a hydroxy protecting group, are prepared by reacting a .beta.-lactam of formula (II) with an oxalyl halide in an inert solvent in the presence of an organic or inorganic base or an acid scavenger to produce a compound of formula (III), wherein X is a halogen atom, treating the resultant compound of formula (III) with a 1,3-dioxolen-2-one of formula (IV), wherein Y is a hydroxy group, in the presence of molecular sieves or an organic or inorganic base to produce a compound of formula (V), and cyclizing the compound of formula (V) in the presence of a trialkylphosphite to provide the penems of formula (I).
