The carboxylic acids of the formula III used for the acylation are novel compounds which can be prepared according to the inventiOn in good yields. The starting point for their preparation is the acetoglyoxylic acid ester, which is accessible from the acetoacetic acid ester in ac-cordance with the instructions in the literature. Preferably, the esters employed are the readily accessible low-molecular alkyl esters, especially the ethyl ester.
Several routes have been described in the literature for the formation of the aminothiazole ring, for example the reaction of chloroketo derivatives with thiourea in accordance with the following equation^ CH3 N¦H2 1 3 ~ ~

form or ethylene dichloride.
The reaction can be carried out ~ithin a wide tempera-ture range. In order to achieve high yields OI mOllOllalOgenO-acetoglyoxylic acid ester, a temperature range OI -20~ to ~20 is preferred.
If elementary bromine has been used for the halogenation, -the bromoacetoglyoxylic acid ester can be furt~ler reac-ted direct, as the ra~ material, with thiourea.
In order to achieve good yields it is advisabie to -~
employ the thiourea in equimolar amounts. It has Deen found, surprisingly, that (2-amino-thiazol-4-yl)~glyoxylic acid es~ers of the formula V form in high yields when the bromoaceto-glyoxylic acid ester is reacted wi-th thiourea.
The reaction can be carried out in vario~ls ways. A
preferred method comprises initial]y introducing the thiourea in solution and allowing the halogen compound to run into the ~eaction mixture SoIvents which have proved suitable for this rea~tion are mixtures of organic solvents with water. Mixtures of alcohols and wa-ter, especially mixtures of ethanol and ~ater~
are particularly suitable~
The reaction can be carried out within a wide tempera-ture range, for example at -5 to +80 The temperature range of 20 to 60 is particularly suitable.
The reaction products of the formula V can be isola~ed by routes kno~m from the laboratory, for example by evaporatin~
off the organic solvent and subsequently adjusting the pH value to 5-7. The adjustment of the pH value ls effected with ~ . ' ' - . ' ' ~ - 13 ~

bases and organic or inorganic bases can be used. For example~ the inexpensive alkali metal hydroxides, alkali metal carbona-tes and alkali metal bicarbonates and the corresponding phosphates have proved suitable.
By means of the reaction which follows the reaction ~lith thiourea, the amino group in the compounds of the formula V is provided with a pro-tective group. Possible protective groups are groups known from the literature, such as, for example, tert.-butoxycarboIlyl, carbobenzyloxy, chloroacetyl, trichloroethyl, benzhydryl or formyl. The triphenylmethyl g~oup has proved particularly sultable as a protec-tive group and is introduced by reacting the compounds of the formula V
with triphenylchloromethane. The reaction is appropriately carried out in an organic solvent, such as, for example, halogenated hydrocarbons, in -the presence of bases.
Halogenated hydrocarbons which have proved particularly suitable are chloroform and methylene chloride. Bases which may be mentioned are, in particular, -the tertiary amines, such as, for example, triethylamine or N-methylmorpholineO
The esters of the formula VI, which are thus obtaine~, are saponified to the corresponding acids of the formula III~
Mixtures of dioxane and water have proved particularly suitable for the saponification~ Thus, it is advantageous to saponify the esters hot in dioxane with the addition of the calculated amount of base and then to isolate the resulting salts. Bases~which have proved suitable are, for example, alkali ~.etal hydroxides, especiall~ sodium hydroxide.

most cases crystallize out from the reaction mixture on cooling.
They can be conver-ted into the acids of the formula III, which are better suited for some activation reactions, by the addi~
tion of dilute mineral acids. Acids which may be mentione~
for this purpose are, in particular, hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid.
Tn other cases, the sodium salts can also be employed direct for the activation.
The carboxylic acids of the general formula III can be converted by processes known from the literature into the activated carboxylic acid derivatives capable of forming an amide. A preferred process for activating the carboxyl group comprises converting it into a symmetrical or unsymmet-rical anhydride. The processes for the preparation of mixed or symmetrical anhydrides are known from the literature.
-For example, chloroformic acid esters or pivaloyl chloride can be used for the activation, in whlch case the acid of the formula III has to be converted into a corresponding salt.
It has been found that the reaction proceeds readily ~rhen the acid is suspended in halogenated hydrocarbons, such as, for example, methylene chloride, and converted, using organic bases, such as, for example, triethylamine, into the triethylammonium salt, Alternatively, in some cases ~it is also possible to employ, for example, a'kali metal salts of the acids of the formula III and in this case the addition of catalytic amo~nts of a tertiary base~ such as, for example, N,N-dimethylaniline, has proved advantageous, The inner a~hydrldes can also be formed from the - 15 - ?

carboxylic acids of the formula III using condensing agents, such as, ~or example, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, and these inner anhydrides are then reacted with the aminocephem-carboxylic acid derivatives of the formula II.
A further variant comprises employing addition products of the carboxylic acids and condensing agents, such as, for example, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, for acylatin~ the cephem acids or their esters of the formula IX
The preparation of the compounds of the general formula -I can be carried out under various experimental condi-tions Thus, for example, the aminocephem derivatives of the formula II can be acylated in very diverse solven-ts. Suitab]e sol-~ents are, for example, organic solvents, such as halogenated hydrocarbons, for example methylene chloride or chloroform, b~t also water or mixtures of wa~er and organic solven-ts which are miscible with water.
In order to achieve a good course of reaction, ~t i~
desirable to bring the aminolactam derivatives into solution In the case of the aminocephem esters o~ the genera]
formula II, the reaction is carried out in organic solvents in which rnost of the esters are readily solublec Examples of such solvents which may be mentioned are the halogenated hydro-carbons, such as methylene chloride or chloroform, but also the tertiary amides-, such as dimethylformamide or dimethylacet-amide;
Esters in the sense of the invention which can be used :
are, for example, those compounds of the formula II in ~hich R2 represents low-molecular alkyl~ preferably tertiary butyl or :, .

subs-titu-ted methyl, in which the methyl group is substltuted in particular by trichloromethyl, acyloxy, preferably acetoxy or pivaloyloxy, or by one or two phenyl radicals, which, in turn, can be substituted, for example, by low-moiecular alkoxy~
preferably methoxy, or the nitro group, or represents the phthalide ester. F~amples conforming to the above defini-tions which may be mentioned are, in particular, the tert -butyl esters, the trichloroethyl and p-methoxybenzyl estersS
the benzhydryl, acetoxymethyl and pivaloyloxymethyl esters or the phthalide es-ters.
When the aminocephemcarboxylic acids of the general formula II (R = hydrogen) are used, the cornpounds must be brought in-to solution wi-th the addition of bases.
Suitable bases which can be used for dissolvin~ 7-ACA
and also a large number of 7-amino~3-cephem-4-carboxylic acids are inorganic~or organic bases~ Thuss bases which have proved suitable for the preparation of solutions in organic solvents are in particular the tertiary amines, such as tri-ethylamine, N,N-dimethylaniline or N-methylmorpholine, and those which have proved suitable for preparing aqueous solutions are in particular the alkali metal bicarbonates, such as sodium bicarbonate or potassium bicarbonate, and also the tertiaIy amines. The bases are in general added in at least the stoichiometric amount, relative to the desired conversion.
2~ However, it is advisable to use an excess of base of, for example, about 20 to 80%~ -Especially in the case of compounds of the formula II
which are sensitive to bases, a constant pH of abou-t 4 to 8 17 ~;

: ':
.

and preferably 6 to 7, depending on the course of the reaction r can be maintained by continuous addition of the base.
The aminolactam derivatives of the formula II can be dissolved within a wide temperature range. In the case of derivatives sensitive to bases, however r it is advisable to choose a temperature range of about 0 to 15.
The activated glyoxylic acid derivatives of the formula III are added to the amino-cephem derivatives of the formula II, which are in solution or optionally in suspension. The reaction takes place in a manner which is in itself knownr at temperatures such as are cUstomary for the preparation of car-boxylic acid amides rom reactive carboxylic acid derivatives of the formula III.
When water or mixtures of water and organic solvents are used as the reaction medium, it is advisable to maintain a temperature range of about 5 to +10. When organic sol-vents are used, the acylation can also be carried out at room temperature.
In order to obtain a better course of reaction, the activated carboxylic acid derivatives of the formula III are taken up in a solvent which does not hinder the reaction and introduced in dilute form. If the acylation is carried out in an aqueous medium, solvents which can be used for the activated carboxylic acid derivatives, are, for example, anhydrous ketones, such as acetone or methyl ethyl ketone, or -with intensive stirring - ethers, such as, for example, diethyl ether or diisopropyl ether.
If the acylation is carried out in a non-aqueous medium, .~ . 1 it is advisable to use the same solven-t for the dilution of the acid derivatives as is used for the acylation.
In order to obtain high yields, the activated acid derivatives of the formula III are employed in at least the stoichiometric amount. An excess of about 5 - 25% can prove appropriate.
The acylation products can be isolated by methods which are in themselves known. Thus, for example J the resulting acid derivatives of the formula IV in which R represents hydrogen can be taken up, if necessary after evaporating off the organic solvent., in water and precipitated by adding mineral acids Sllitable mineral acids are, in particular1 dilute acids, such as dilute hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid In most cases, the amidocephem acids of -the for~n~la IY
precipitate in the form of amorphous solids or in a crystalline form. They can also be separated off as the free acids b~r extracting at pH 2 to 1. Extraction agents which can be .
used~are diverse water-immiscible organic solvents, for example halogenated hydrocarbons, such as meth~lene chloride. or esters, ~; 20 ~ such as,~for example, ethyl ~cetate or n-butyl acetate, but also ketones, such as methyl isobutyl ketone.
The resulting amidocephem acids of the formula IV are obtained from the extracts, for example by e~raporating off the solvent and grinding the residue, for example with ether.
~ 25~ When the amidocephem compounds of the formula I are ; prepared from the compounds of the formula IV, t~e protective ~ group R must be removed. The reaction conditions to be ;~ employed depen~ on ihe nature of the proteclive group and are , ., .
'- ~ ' ' ' ~ ~ ' known from the li-terature.
If, for example, R is a triphenylmethyl group, this group is detached in an acid medium. Mixtures of formic acid and water, especially a mixture of water and formic ac~d in a ratio of 1 : 1, have proved sui-table. In the case of compounds of the formula IV in which R2 represents, ~or example, p-methoxybenzyl, benzhydryl or dime-thoxybenzyl and R represe-lts a -triphenylmethyl group, it is possible simultaneously to detach the ester group and to remove the trityl group by treat-ment with trifluoroacetic acid/anisole~
The isolation of -the amidocephem compounds o~ the formula I can be effected by l~own methods~ In many cases the resulting compound is dissolved in the reac-tion med:ium used, so -that an extraction is advisable and, in the case of triphenylmethyl being used as the protective group, the result-ing triphenylcarbinol can be filtered off or can be removed with extraction agents, such as, for example, ether, The amidocephem compo~mds of the formula I in which R2 represents hydrogen can also be converted to the physiologica1ly 20 acceptable esters of -the formula I by subsequent esterification by processes known from the literature. Thus, for example, the acetoxymethyl or pivaloyloxymethyl esters are obtained by reacting the alkali ~etal salts, preferably the sodium salts, or-the ammonium salts, preferably the triethylammonium salts, ~ith the corresponding halo~enomethy~.acyl compounds, such as~ for example, chloromethyl acetate, chloromethyl propionate or chloromethyl pivalate.

acceptable esters, have already been obtained from the acyla-tion 3 subsequent esterification of the carboxyl group is superfluous.
The esters which are obtained direct from the reactiGn according to the invention, such as, for example, p-methoxy-benzyl, p-nitroben~yl, tert.-butyl or benzhydryl esters, can also be converted to the free carboxylic acids of the ~ormula I
in a manner ~no~n from the litera-ture.
Compounds of the formula I which are in a form suitable for application in human medicine and veterinary medi-cine are, in particular, those in which R2 represents a physiologically acceptable cation, such as, for example, the alkali metal salts, especially the sodium and potassium saltsS
; or ammonium salts, especially tertiary amine salts, such as~ for example, procain salts. The sodium salts are particularly preferred If the salts are not isolated direct from the reaction :
solution, such as, for example, by precipltation with sui-table organlc solvents, such as, for example7 ether9 they can also be 20 ~ obtained by reacting the carboxylic acid of the for~ula I with the desired base, for example sodium hydroxide solution.
