Modification of the cysteamine side chain of thienamycin. III

J Antibiot (Tokyo). 1987 Sep;40(9):1292-302. doi: 10.7164/antibiotics.40.1292.

Abstract

Thienamycin derivatives (4) having a cyclic amidine moiety at the C-2 position were prepared. The susceptibility to renal dehydropeptidase-1 and the antimicrobial activity of these compounds were determined. Their structure-activity relationships are also discussed.
