Journal ArticleDOI
Thiazolidine ring opening in penicillin derivatives. Part 2. Enamine formation
TL;DR: In this paper, a competing elimination reaction across C6−C5 to open the thiazolidine ring and reversibly generate an enamine intermediate is attributed to the competing elimination of (3S,5R,6R)-methyl benzylpenicilloate and corresponding carboxamide and N-ethylamide.
Journal ArticleDOI
An esterase with β-lactamase activity
Mark Jones,Michael I. Page +1 more
TL;DR: Porcine liver esterase selectively catalyses the hydrolysis of the β-lactam of the methyl ester of benzylpenicillin with a Kcat/Km of 675 dm3 mol–1 s–1 and without hydrolysing the methyl Ester function.
Journal ArticleDOI
A reversible inhibitor of β-lactamase I from Bacillus cereus
TL;DR: a-Methyl (3S,5R,6R)benzylpenicilloate is a reversible competitive inhibitor of -lactamase l from Bacillus cereus which is compatible with binding of the free base form of the thiazolidine residue to the enzyme.
