| pubmed-article:1500365 | pubmed:abstractText | A series of 1 beta-methylcarbapenem compounds, which have a 5'-substituted-N-methylpyrrolidin-3'-ylthio group as a C-2 side chain, have been prepared and their biological properties were investigated. Substitution with a methyl group on the nitrogen atom in the C-2 side chain effectively enhanced stability to renal dehydropeptidase-I as well as introduction of methylene spacer between the aminocarbonyl group and the pyrrolidine ring of the 5'-aminocarbonylpyrrolidin-3'-ylthio group. | lld:pubmed |
