Abstract: The present invention provides novel benzamides and sulfonamides, formulations thereof, and intermediates thereto. The benzamides and sulfonamides of the present invention are useful as hypoglycemic agents and, accordingly, a method of using such compounds to lower a mammal's blood glucose level is also provided.
Abstract: The present invention provides compounds of the formula ##STR1## wherein R is hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.6 alkenyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.6 alkynyl, C.sub.3 -C.sub.6 cycloalkyl, or C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 haloalkyl;A and A' are independently hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl, nitro, amino, a 5-6 membered organic heterocycle containing 1, 2, or 3 hetero atoms selected from nitrogen or sulfur, C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkoxy, or phenyl; or A and A' taken together form a group of the formulae ##STR2## wherein X is hydrogen, halo, C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkoxy, C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkoxycarbonyl, amino, nitro, or carboxy; and Y is nitrogen or carbon; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; pharmaceutical compositions and methods of treatment using the above compounds.
Abstract: A process for the conversion of a 4-chlorosulfonyl azetidinone (a) to a 3-hydroxy-3-cephem-sulfoxide ester (d) by subjecting an intermediate comprising a tin containing Lewis acid-type Fiedel-Crafts catalyst and 3-exomethylene cepham to ozonolysis.
Abstract: New glycopeptide antibiotic A82846, comprising A82846A, A82846B and A82846C, is produced by Nocardia orientalis strains NRRL 18098, NRRL 18099 and NRRL 18100. The A82846 antibiotics have activity against Gram-positive bacteria comparable to that of vancomycin.
