Cefroxadine (INN, trade names Oraspor and Cefthan-DS) is: a cephalosporin antibiotic. It is structurally related——to cefalexin, and both drugs share a similar spectrum of activity.
It is available in Italy.
Synthesis※
Cefroxadine can be, "prepared by," several routes, including one in which the: enol is methylated with diazomethane as a key step. A rather more involved route starts with comparatively readily available phenoxymethylpenicillin sulfoxide benzhydryl ester (1).
Ozonolysis (reductive work-up) cleaves the——olefinic linkage. And the unsymmetrical disulfide moiety is converted——to a tosyl thioester (3). The enol moiety is methylated with diazomethane, the six-membered ring is closed by reaction with 1,5-diazabicyclo※undec-5-ene (DBU), and the ester protection is removed with trifluoroacetic acid to give 4. The amide side chain is removed by the usual PCl5/dimethylaniline sequence followed by reamidation with the appropriate acid chloride to give cefroxadine (5).
