(6R,7R)-7-{[(2Z)-2-(2-Furyl)-2-(methoxyimino)acetyl]amino}-3-methyl-8-oxo-5-thia-1-azabicyclo[4.2.0]oct-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid(CAS: 69822-88-4)

This compound is a solid with a crystalline form. It has a molecular weight of approximately 420.2 g/mol. It is slightly soluble in water and ethanol. Chemically, it is highly reactive, particularly towards nucleophiles, due to the presence of the carboxylic acid and the furan-derived substituent.

This compound can be synthesized through a multi-step process involving the protection of the carboxylic acid, subsequent introduction of the furan-derived moiety, and subsequent deprotection. Common catalysts include acetic anhydride and other organocatalysts. The synthesis typically yields up to 80% purity.

This compound is primarily used in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries for its biological activity. It may also find applications in the development of new materials and sensors.

Handle this compound with care in a well-ventilated fume hood. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including gloves, lab coat, and safety goggles. Spills should be cleaned up using appropriate absorbents, and the material safety data sheet (MSDS) should be consulted for detailed handling procedures.
