Abstract: Substituted bicyclic beta-lactams of Formula I: (I), are ?-lactamase inhibitors, wherein a, X, R1 and R2 are defined herein. The compounds and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are useful in the treatment of bacterial infections in combination with ?-lactam antibiotics. In particular, the compounds can be employed with a ?-lactam antibiotics (e.g., imipenem, piperacillin, or ceftazidime) against microorganisms resistant to ?-lactam antibiotics due to the presence of the ?-lactamases.
