The reaction of activated derivatives of clavulanic acid with substituted amidoethenyl thiolates to give 9-(2-amidoethenylthio)-9-deoxy derivatives is described; the antibacterial/synergistic and beta-lactamase inhibitory activities of the thioethers and their corresponding sulfoxides and sulfones are compared.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D002969	Clavulanic Acids	Acids, salts, and derivatives of clavulanic acid (C8H9O5N). They consist of those beta-lactam compounds that differ from penicillin in having the sulfur of the thiazolidine ring replaced by an oxygen. They have limited antibacterial action, but block bacterial beta-lactamase irreversibly, so that similar antibiotics are not broken down by the bacterial enzymes and therefore can exert their antibacterial effects.	Acids, Clavulanic
D019818	Clavulanic Acid	A beta-lactam antibiotic produced by the actinobacterium Streptomyces clavuligerus. It is a suicide inhibitor of bacterial beta-lactamase enzymes. Administered alone, it has only weak antibacterial activity against most organisms, but given in combination with other beta-lactam antibiotics it prevents antibiotic inactivation by microbial lactamase.
