Cefmenoxime is a third-generationcephalosporinantibiotic.[1]
Thealkylation of ethyl 2-hydroxyimino-3-oxobutanoate (1) withdimethylsulfate gives ethyl (2Z)-2-methoxyimino-3-oxo-butanoate (2).Halogenation with molecular bromine leads to ethyl 4-bromo-2-methoxyimino-3-oxobutanoate (3). Treatment withthiourea gives ethyl (Z)-2-(2-amino-4-thiazolyl)-2-methoxyiminoacetate (4) which is reacted withchloroacetyl chloride to give theamide (5).Saponification with potassium hydroxide gives (6) which is halogenated withphosphorus pentachloride to (7). Amide formation with thecephalosporin intermediate (8) then gives (9). Removal of theprotecting group withbenzyltriethylammonium bromide yields (10). The tert-butylester was deprotected withtrifluoroacetic acid to give (11). Lastly,thioether formation with 5-mercapto-1-methyltetrazole (12) completes the synthesis of cefmenoxime.[2][3][4][5]
