Design, synthesis and antibacterial activities of a series of new 2-oxaisocephems

A series of 2-oxaisocephems with a thio-substituted methyl group at the 3-position and a [2-(5-amino-1,2,4-thiadizol-3-yl)-2-(Z)-alkoxyimino]acetamido moiety at 7-position were synthesized and tested for their antibacterial activities. The analogs 17c and 17f have well-balanced potency and significantly enhanced activity as compared with the reference compound ceftazidime.
