Abstract: Trimethylsilyl or another easily hydrolyzed ester of 6-trimethylsilyloxycarbonylaminopenicillanic acid was prepared by bubbling dry carbon dioxide into an anhydrous solution of the corresponding 6-trimethylsilylaminopenicillanate and found to be a useful intermediate in the production of penicillins, e.g., amoxicillin and ampicillin, by its acylation in anhydrous media with the appropriate acid chloride or acid chloride hydrochloride.

Abstract: In the preferred embodiment of the present invention trimethylsilyl 7-trimethylsilyloxycarbonylaminodecephalosporanate was prepared by bubbling dry carbon dioxide into an anhydrous solution of trimethylsilyl 6-trimethylsilylaminodecephalosporanate and found to be a useful intermediate in the production of cefadroxil and cephalexin by its acylation in anhydrous media with the appropriate 2-phenylglycyl chloride hydrochloride. Other cephalosporins are produced by acylation of 7-trimethylsilyloxycarbonylaminoceph-3-em-4-carboxylic acids or esters having a variety of substituents at the 3-position.

Abstract: 1. A new crystalline form of D-6-(2-amino-2-phenyl-acetamido)penicillanic acid characterized by being substantially free of water in the chemically bound state, having a molecular weight of about 349, having an infrared spectrograph as disclosed in FIG. 1 of the drawings, and possessing substantially greater storage stability than hydrated crystalline D-6-(2-amino-2-phenyl-acetamido)penicillanic acid.
