Example 29
Monobactam thioimidate linked β-lactam antibiotic cannabinoid conjugate components are synthesized according to the following Scheme. The starting material [76855-69-1] is converted to the thiol silver salt using reported conditions (Shenyang Yaoke Daxue Xuebao, 18(1), 20-22; 2001) to give the 2-SH intermediate. This thiol group is then reacted with methyl imidocarbonyl chloride [5652-90-4] and a cannabinoid (CBD) under reported conditions (Tetrahedron Letters, 23(35), 3539-42; 1982) to form the thioimidate link. Removal of the silyl ether protecting group followed by sulfonation using established conditions gives the product.
