DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The various groups represented by the symbols have the meaning defined below and these definitions are retained throughout this specification.
The lower alkyl groups referred to throughout this specification include straight or branched chain hydrocarbon groups containing 1 to 7 carbon atoms, preferably 1 to 4 carbons. Examples of the type of groups contemplated are methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, t-butyl, etc. The lower alkoxy and lower alkylthio groups include such lower alkyl groups attached to an oxygen or sulfur, respectively, e.g. methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, methylthio, ethylthio, propylthio, etc. The phenyl-lower alkyl and diphenyl-lower alkyl groups include such lower alkyl groups attached to one or two phenyl rings, preferably benzyl, phenethyl and diphenylmethyl.
The saturated and unsaturated cycloalkyl groups are the alicyclic groups having up to 7 carbons and up to 2 double bonds in the ring, i.e., the cycloalkyl groups cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl and cycloheptyl, the cycloalkenyl groups having up to 7 carbons with one double bond, cyclobutenyl, cyclopentenyl, cyclohexenyl and cycloheptenyl and the cycloalkadienyl groups having up to 7 carbons with two double bonds located at various positions such as 1,4-cyclohexadienyl (which is preferred).
The substituted phenyl groups include one or two substituents selected from halogen (preferably chlorine or bromine), lower alkyl (preferably having 1 to 4 carbons, especially methyl or ethyl), lower alkoxy (preferably having 1 to 4 carbons, especially methoxy or ethoxy), and hydroxy, e.g., 2-, 3-, or 4-chlorophenyl, 2-, 3-, or 4-bromophenyl, 2-, 3-, or 4-hydroxyphenyl, 3,5-dichlorophenyl, 2-, 3-, or 4-methylphenyl, 2-, 3- or 4-ethoxyphenyl, etc.
The salt forming ions represented by R are metal ions, e.g., aluminum, alkali metal ions such as sodium or potassium, alkaline earth metal ions such as calcium or magnesium, or an amine salt ion, of which a number are known for this purpose, for example, phenyl-lower alkylamines such as dibenzylamine, N,N-dibenzylethylenediamine, lower alkylamines such as methylamine, triethylamine, and N-lower alkylpiperidines such as N-ethylpiperidine. Sodium and potassium are the preferred salt forming ions.
The halogens are the four common halogens, of which chlorine and bromine are preferred. In the case of the trihaloethyl group represented by R, 2,2,2-trichloroethyl is preferred.
Trimethylsilyl is the preferred tri(lower alkyl)-silyl group.
The heterocyclic groups represented by R.sub.1 are 2-thienyl, 3-thienyl, 2-furyl, 3-furyl, 2-pyridyl, 3-pyridyl, 4-pyridyl, or 2-aminothiazol-4-yl.
The heterocyclic groups represented by R.sub.4 are the thienyl, furyl and pyridyl groups represented by R.sub.1, thiazolyl and isothiazolyl, i.e. the groups, ##STR6## Lower alkanoyloxy refers to a group of the formula ##STR7## preferably wherein the lower alkyl group is methyl.
The heterothio groups represented by X are ##STR8## wherein R.sub.5 is hydrogen or lower alkyl (preferably having 1 to 4 carbons, especially methyl or ethyl).
The products of this invention are produced by acylating a cephem compound having the formula ##STR9## with an acid having the formula ##STR10## or an activated derivative like the acid halide, activated ester like the nitrophenyl ester, dinitrophenyl ester, diphenylmethyl ester, or mixed anhydride, and/or in the presence of a coupling agent like dicyclohexlcarbodiimide.
The compound of formula II is preferably in the form of an ester, i.e, R is an easily removable group like diphenylmethyl, which is preferred, t-butyl, trimethylsilyl, etc.
One preferred synthesis comprises reacting the acid of formula II with the diphenylmethyl ester of the compound of formula II in the presence of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and then hydrolyzing the ester with trifluoroacetic acid and anisole to obtain the free carboxyl group in the 4-position. A salt can be obtained from the acid by reaction with the base having the desired cation.
This reaction can be carried out, for example, by dissolving or suspending the acid in an inert organic solvent such as chloroform, tetrahydrofuran, methylene chloride, dioxane, benzene or the like, and adding, at a reduced temperature of about 0.degree.-5.degree. C., about an equimolar amount of the compound of formula II in the presence of a coupling agent such as dicyclohexylcarbodimide. The product of the reaction is then isolated by conventional procedures, e.g., by concentration or evaporation of the solvent. If a derivative such as the diphenylmethyl ester is used, the free acid is obtained by hydrolysis, e.g., with trifluoroacetic acid and anisole or the like. Salts can then be derived from the free acid.
According to another embodiment, a compound of the formula ##STR11## is made to react with an acyl halide of the formula ##STR12## wherein hal represents halogen, preferably chlorine, or with a nitrophenyl ester of the formula ##STR13## The compounds of formula I wherein X is pyridinium or carbamoyl substituted pyridinium can be prepared by reacting a compound of formula I wherein X is acetoxy with pyridine or carbamoyl substituted pyridine in a polar solvent such as water and in the presence of a catalyst such as an alkali metal thiocyanate by the method described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,792,047 and German Offenlegungsschrift No. 2,234,280.
Compounds of formula I wherein X is a heterothio group can also be produced by reacting a compound of formula I wherein X is acetoxy with a mercaptan of the formula
or an alkali metal (preferably sodium) salt of the formula
by the methods described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,855,213; 3,890,309; and 3,892,737.
The starting material of formula III can be produced from an .alpha.-amino acid ester having the formula ##STR14## wherein R.sub.1 has the same meaning as defined above and Y is a readily removable group, e.g., diphenylmethyl, nitrophenyl, dinitrophenyl, t-butyl, trimethylsilyl or the like, which is made to react with an oxalic acid halide or nitrophenyl ester of formulas V and VI, respectively.
Activated derivatives of the acids of formula III are produced by reaction with thionyl chloride, esterifying agent, anhydride, or the like, by conventional procedures.
Alternatively, an .alpha.-amino acid ester of formula VIII, preferably the diphenylmethyl ester, nitrophenyl ester or dinitrophenyl ester, is made to react with an oxalyl halide like oxalyl chloride to obtain a compound of the formula ##STR15## wherein hal represents halogen, preferably chlorine, and Y is one of the foregoing ester groups like diphenyl methyl, p-nitrophenyl or 2,4-dinitrophenyl. Reaction of this derivative with a compound of the formula
(which is formed from the amide R.sub.4 --CO--NH.sub.2, triethylamine and a silylating agent like trimethylsilyl chloride, monotrimethylsilyltrifluoroacetamide or bis trimethylsilylaetamide) yields a product of the formula ##STR16## When Y is nitrophenyl or dinitrophenyl, the intermediate of formula XI can be made to react with the compound of formula II.
When Y is diphenylmethyl in formula XI it is preferable to react this intermediate with an acid, e.g., hydrochloric acid in glacial acetic acid, to form a compound of the formula ##STR17## which is then made to react with the compound of formula II, preferably in the form of its diphenylmethyl ester, the ester group then being removed as described.
The carboxylate salts of the compound of formula I are formed by reacting the carboxyl group of the cehpalosporanic acid moiety, i.e., R is hydrogen, with any of the salt forming ions described above.
It will be appreciated that the compounds of formula I are optically active due to the presence of an asymmetric carbon atom indicated by the asterisk. By selection of the appropriate starting material it is possible to obtain the compounds of formula I as a mixture of optically active isomers or isolated as a single isomer. The various isomers as well as their mixtures are within the scope of this invention.
Preferred compounds of this invention are the acids and alkali metal salts of formula I (i.e. R is hydrogen, sodium or potassium) wherein X is acetoxy or heterothio, especially 1-methyl-1H-tetrazol-5-ylthio; R.sub.1 is phenyl or a heterocyclic selected from 2-thienyl, 3-thienyl, 2-furyl or 3-furyl, especially 2-furyl and 2-thienyl; R.sub.2 is hydrogen or methoxy, especially hydrogen; R.sub.3 is hydrogen or lower alkyl, especially hydrogen; and R.sub.4 is lower alkyl or furyl, especially 2-furyl.
The most preferred final compounds are the acids and alkali metal salts of formula I wherein R.sub.1 is 2-thienyl or 2-furyl; R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 each is hydrogen; R.sub.4 is 2-furyl; and X is heterothio particularly wherein X is ##STR18## The acid compounds of formula I have a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity against both gram positive and gram negative organisms such as Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhimurium, Citrobacter freundii, Shigella sonnei, Proteus mirabilis, Proteus rettgeri, Escherichia coli, Enterobacter cloacae, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Klebsiella, aerogenes, etc. They may be used as antibacterial agents to combat infections due to organisms such as those named above, and in general may be utilized in a manner similar to cephradine and other cephalosporins. For example, a compound of formula I or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof may be used in various animal species in an amount of about 15 to 100 mg/kg., daily, orally or parenterally, in single or two to four divided doses to treat infections of bacterial origin, e.g., at about 20 mg/kg. in mice.
About 50 to 600 mg. of an acid compound of formula I or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof may be incorporated in an oral dosage form such as tablet, capsule or elixir or in an injectable form in a sterile aqueous vehicle prepared according to conventional pharmaceutical practice.
