Abstract
Novel trans-3,5-disubstituted pyrrolidinylthio-1 beta-methylcarbapenems wer e designed and synthesized to provide J-111,347 (la) as the first example o f an exceptionally broad-spectrum antibiotic, showing activity against meth icillin-resistant Sta-phyloccocus aureus (MRSA) phyloccocus aureus (MRSA) a s well as Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Further derivation of 1a afforded J-111,2 25 (2a), J-114,870 (3a), and J-114,871 (3b), which showed improved safety p rofiles and retained broad-spectrum antibacterial activities.
