Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 1998 Jul 7;8(13):1607-12. doi: 10.1016/s0960-894x(98)00270-4.

Abstract

The synthesis and biological activity of the novel series of 1 beta-methylcarbapenems, 1 and 2 were described. Most compounds displayed high potent antibacterial activity. The best compound in this series, 2a (IH201; R2 = NH2) showed an excellent and a broad spectrum as well as high renal DHP-I stability. It also possessed good in vivo efficacy and high safety.
