A practical and efficient route leading to the synthesis of 4-(tert-butylcarbonyl)-7α-methoxy-3-methyl-Δ3-cephem 1,1-dioxide (2), a key-intermediate in the preparation of potent inhibitors of mammalian serine proteinases, is reported. The new synthetic pathway has allowed easy access to an array of 7-substituted cephem derivatives.
