The protection of 4(R)-hydroxypyrrolidin-2-one (I) first with TBDMS-Cl and then with Boc2O gives the fully protected compound (II), which is condensed with the Grignard reagent of the 4-bromobenzaldehyde dimethyl acetal (III) yielding after working up the substituted benzaldehyde (IV). The reduction of (IV) with NaBH4 affords the benzyl alcohol (V), which is treated with methanesulfonyl chloride to give the corresponding mesylate (VI). The reaction of (VI) with methylamine, followed by protection with Boc2O yields the protected secondary amine (VII), which is desilylated with tetrabutylammonium fluoride to afford the pyrrolidinol (VIII). The reaction of (VIII) with MsCl gives the mesylate (IX), which is treated with potassium thioacetate to provide the acetylsulfanyl derivative (X). The hydrolysis and deprotection of (X) with HCl yields the pyrrolidinethiol (XI), which is condensed with the carbapenem phosphoric ester (XII) to afford the final 4-nitrobenzyl ester intermediate (XIII). Finally, this compound is debenzylated by hydrogenation with H2 over Pd/C.
