When (3R,4R)-1-(1-benzyloxycarbonyl-2-methyl-1-propenyl)-4-mercapto-3-phenylacetamidoazetidin-2-one(8) was reacted with carbon disulfide and alkyl halides in the presence of triethylamine, the ${\beta}$-lactam ring was cleaved to give (Z)-and (E)-1-alkylthio-5-benzyloxycarbonyl-6-methyl-2-phenylacetamido-4-aza-1,5-heptadien-3-one (13-16) or 2-benzyl-4-(3-benzyloxycarbonyl-4-methyl-1-oxo-2-aza-3-pentenyl)thiazole(17).

A brush type chiral stationary phase (CSP 2) derived from ${\alpha}$-amino ${\beta}$-lactam was prepared for the separation of the enantiomers of ${\beta}$-blockers. Compared to the CSP derived from ${\alpha}$-amino phosphonate (CSP 1), in general, the conformationally rigid CSP 2 showed greater scope and much enhanced enantioselectivity for the resolution of ${\beta}$-blockers. The effect of various salt additives on enantioseparation of ${\beta}$-blockers in the mobile phase was investigated. The unusual effect of temperature on the chromatographic behaviors was observed on CSP 2. It also afforded appreciable increases in enantioselectivity without significantly affecting resolution, as the column temperature was reduced.

In this approach, the antimicrobial activities of the compounds were compared with the ${\beta}$-lactam antibiotics against ${\beta}$-lactamase producing strains in vitro. Heteroc yclyl exomethylenepenam derivatives were several numbers of 6-exomethylenepenam sodiums (CH1240, CH1245, CH1250, CH2140, CH2145, CH2150). The inhibitory concentraion assay of six compounds were compared with clavulanic acid, sulbactam, tazobactam. Clavulanic acid, sulbactam and tazobactam are used as inhibitors of a variety of plasmid-mediated beta-lactamases. In vitro ${\beta}$-lactamase inhibitory assay, CH1240 and CH2140 were more active than clavulanic acid, sulbactam and tazobactam against ${\beta}$-lactamases overally. And in vitro comparative antimicrobial susceptibility test of six inhibitors were performed with mixed forms of ampicillin, cefotaxime, amoxicillin, ticarcillin, piperacillin, cefoperazone against ${\beta}$-lactamase producing 31 species strains. Consequently CH2140 and CH1240 among the six compounds enhanced the activity of the ${\beta}$-lactams for 31 ${\beta}$-lactamase producing strains.

A novel compound, named YH-487, was synthesized by attaching the thiol and aminothiazole residue to $C_3$ and $C_7$ position of 7-aminocephalosporanic acid (7-ACA). The therapeutic efficacy on infected animals, pharmacokinetics in vivo and the effect on intestinal microflora of YH-487 were examined. The pharmacokinetics of YH-487 were similar to that of cefotaxime, a third generation ${\beta}-lactam$ antibiotics, in rat. Upon in vivo administration, YH-487 was predominantly delivered to kidney, and mostly excreted through kidney without making any metabolites. The therapeutic efficacy of YH-487 to animal infected with E. coli was three times and twenty times higher than that of cefotaxime and cefotiam, respectively, In vivo administration of YH-487 to Sprague-Dawley rats significantly decreased the population of intestinal gram negative species such as Enterobacteria and Barteroides. However, no significant changes were obseved in gram positive species such as Lactobacillus, Bifidobacteria and Staphylococcus. In addition, continuous administration of YH-487 did not increase the possibility to induce resistant strains in intestinal microflora.

Using cell-free extract of Lysobacter lactamgenus, enzymatic conversion of $\delta$-L-($\alpha$-aminoadiphyl)-L-cysteinyl-D-valine (ACV) the first substrate of $\beta$-lactam biosynthesis, into antibiotic compounds was attempted. In high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) analysis, the biosynthetic intermediates for cephalosporin antibiotics including isopenicillin N, deacetoxycephalosporin C, deacetylcephalosporin C and unknown cephem compound were detected in reaction mixtures. It implies that cephabacin compounds from L lactamgenus could be produced by biosynthetic routes through penicillin ring formation and its expansion to cephalosporin ring, likely as cephalosporin C from Cephalosporium or cephamycin C from Streptomyces. Among biosynthetic enzyme in cell-free extract, the ring formation activity (isopenicillin N synthetase activity) was separated in 50-60% of ammonium sulfate fraction, and ring expansion activity (deacetoxycephalosporin C synthetase activity) was found to be in 40-50% fraction. The partially purified isopenicillin N synthetase could convert as much as 90% ACV to isopenicillin N during 6-hour reaction.

Chiral oxazolidin-2-one is easily prepared from D-mannitol and demonstrated to undergo highly diastereoselective alkylation reactions via lithium imide Z-enolates of its N-acyl derivatives to afford ${\alpha}-branched$ products. Evans syn and non-Evans sy n aldol products were also selectively obtained using this new auxiliary in high diastereomeric purity by simply changing the stoichiometry of TiCl4 and the nature of the amine base. Also, this new auxiliary is employed in diastereoselective Staudinger-type ${\beta}-lactam$ syntheses. Using 2-chloro-1-methylpyridinium iodide as the dehydrating agent, the reaction of auxiliary tethered acetic acid with trans imines gave the desired ${\beta}-lactams$ with cis-selectivity.

For gas chromatographic determination with the sulfur-specific flame photometric detector, nine ${\beta}$-lactam antibiotics without ${\alpha}$-amino group were esterified with borontrifluoride-methanol complex and then N-benzoylated with benzoyl chloride. The gas chromatographic separation of these products was successfully carried out on various silicon polymers (OV-1, OV-101, OV-17, OV-225, and QF-1) coated on the acid washed, silanized diatomite. The structure of the esterified and N-benzoylated product was confirmed by mass spectromer.
