Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The term C-076 is used to describe a series of compounds isolated from the fermentation broth of a C-076 producing strain of Streptomyces avermitilis. The morphological characteristics of the culture are completely described in copending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 772,601. The C-076 compounds are a series of macrolides with hydroxy substituents capable of being acylated. Some of the C-076 compounds have more than one hydroxy group which are capable of being acylated, and procedures have been developed for the selective acylation at the various positions. The acyl compounds thus produced have profound anthelmintic, insecticidal, ectoparasiticidal and acaracidal activity.
Based on taxonomic studies, the microorganisms capable of producing these C-076 compounds are of a new species of the genus Streptomyces, which has been named Streptomyces avermitilis. One such culture, isolated from soil is designated MA-4680 in the culture collection of Merck & Co., Inc., Rahway, New Jersey. A C-076 producing sample of this culture has been deposited in the permanent culture collection of the Permentation Section of the Northern Utilization Research Branch, U.S. Department of Agriculture at Peoria, Ill., and has been assigned the accession number NRRL 8165. A sample of NRRL 8165 has also been deposited, without restriction as to availability, in the permanent culture collection of the American Type Culture Collection at 12301 Parklawn Drive, Rockville, Md. 20852, and has been assigned the accession number ATCC 31,267.
The above microorganism is illustrative of a strain of Streptomyces avermitilis which can be employed in the production of the C-076 compounds. However, such description also embraces mutants of the above described microorganism. For example, those C-076 producing mutants which are obtained by natural selection or those producted by mutating agents including X-ray irradiation, ultraviolet irradiation, nitrogen mustard or like treatments are also included within the ambit of this invention.
One example of such an organism is a strain of Streptomyces avermitilis MA 4848 which was isolated after irradiation with ultraviolet light of Streptomyces avermitilis MA 4680. A lyophilized tube and a frozen vial of this culture has been deposited in the permanent culture collection of the American Type Culture Collection, and they have been assigned the accession numbers 31272 and 31271 respectively. Slightly higher fermentation yields of C-076 have been obtained using this frozen stock as inoculum.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The C-076 series of compounds have the following structure: ##STR1## wherein R is the .alpha.-L-oleandrosyl-.alpha.-L-oleandrose group of the structure: ##STR2## and wherein the broken line between C.sub.22 and C.sub.23 indicates a single or a double bond;
R.sub.1 is hydroxy and is present only when said broken line indicates a single bond;
R.sub.2 is iso-propyl or sec-butyl; and
R.sub.3 is methoxy or hydroxy.
There are eight different C-076 compounds and they are given the designations A1a, A1b, A2a, A2b, B1a, B1b, B2a, B2b based upon the structure of the individual compounds.
In the foregoing structural formula, the individual C-076 compounds are as set forth below.
As is readily seen, all of the C-076 compounds have hydroxy groups at the 7-position and the 4"-position of the carbohydrate side chain. The 7-position hydroxy group, however, is resistant to acylation and under the conditions described herein, no 7-position acylation product having been isolated. Thus all of the compounds have at least one acylatable hydroxy group. In addition, the A2 and B1 series of compounds have a second acylatable hydroxy group and the B2 series of compounds has a third acylatable hydroxy group.
The carbohydrate side chain may also be hydrolyzed to remove one or both of the .alpha.-L-oleandrose groups. In this case there would remain an acylatable hydroxy group at the 4' or 13-position with the removal of a single .alpha.-L-oleandrose (monosaccharide) or both .alpha.-L-oleandrose (aglycone) respectively.
The monosaccharide and aglycone derivatives are prepared by the treatment of the parent C-076 compound with acid. The outer .alpha.-L-oleandrose group is more easily removed than the .alpha.-L-oleandrose group directly bonded to the C-076 substrate thus facilitating the separate preparation of the monosaccharide and aglycone without contamination with the other reaction product.
The process employed for the removal of the C-076 carbohydrate group or groups is to put the C-076 starting material in solution in a mixture of from 0.01 to 10% acid in a non-nucleophylic water miscible solvent such as dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, dimethoxyethane, dimethylformamide, bis-2-methoxyethyl ether and the like, and from 0.1 to 20% water. The mixture is stirred for from 6 to 24 hours at room temperature to complete the reaction. Acids such as sulfuric, hydrochloric, hydrobromic, phosphoric, trifluoroacetic and trifluorosulfonic are acceptable. Sulfuric acid is preferred.
When lower acid concentrations are used such as from 0.01 to 0.1% are employed the monosaccharide is predominantly prepared. When higher concentrations of acid are employed, such as in the range of 1 to 10%, the aglycone is predominantly prepared. Intermediate concentrations of acid will tend to prepare mixtures of monosaccharide and aglycone which are generally separable using chromatographic techniques.
The monosaccharide may also be prepared by stirring the C-076 precursor for from 6 to 24 hours at room temperature in 1% sulfuric acid in isopropanol. In addition the aglycone can be prepared by stirring the C-076 precursor for from 6 to 24 hours at room temperature in 1% sulfuric acid in methanol. The acid in methanol. The other acids listed above may also be employed in this process. This process is preferred for use with the 2- series of C-076 compounds since some addition may be observed to the 22,23 double bond of the series of C-076 compounds with a 22,23 unsaturation. The desired monosaccharide or aglycone are isolated and purified using techniques known to those skilled in the art.
The acyl compounds of this invention are realized in the following structural formula: ##STR3## wherein the broken line indicates a single or a double bond; R.sub.1 is hydroxy or acyloxy and is present only when the broken line indicates a single bond;
R.sub.2 is iso-propyl or sec-butyl;
R.sub.3 hydrogen, methyl or acyl; and
R is hydrogen, acyl, .alpha.-L-oleardrosyl, 4'-acyl-.alpha.-L-oleandrosyl, 4'-(.alpha.-L-oleandrosyl)-.alpha.-L-oleandrosyl, 4"-acyl-4-(.alpha.-L-oleandrosyl)-.alpha.-L-oleandrosyl;
provided that at least one of the R, R.sub.1, or R.sub.3 groups contains an acyl group.
The foregoing acyl groups and the acyl portion of the acyloxy groups are: loweralkanoyl; substituted loweralkanoyl wherein the substituents are halogen, carboxy, loweralkoxycaronyl, amino, mono- or di-loweralkylamino, or loweralkanoylamino; unsaturated loweralkanoyl, loweralkoxycarbonyl, halogenated loweralkoxycarbonyl, benzoyl, or substituted benzoyl in which the substituents are halogen, nitro, alkyl, amino, hydroxy or alkoxy; carbamoyl and N-substituted and N,N-disubstituted carbamoyl wherein the substitution is loweralkyl, benzyl, hydroxyloweralkyl, or the carbomoyl nitrogen may be incorporated into a morpholine heterocycle. The acyloxy group at R.sub.1 is defined as the above acyl groups bonded to the 23-position through an oxygen atom.
In the instant application the term "loweralkyl" is intended to include those straight or branched chain alkyl groups containing from 1 to 12 carbon atoms such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, pentyl, hexyl, decyl, dodecyl and the like.
The term "loweralkoxy" is intended to include those alkoxy groups containing from 1 to 6 carbon atoms such as methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, isopropoxy, butoxy, tert-butoxy, pentoxy, hexoxy and the like.
The term "loweralkanoyl" is intended to include those alkanoyl groups containing from 2 to 12 carbon atoms such as acetyl, propionyl, butyryl, pentanoyl, hexanoyl, pivaloyl, octanoyl, decanoyl and the like.
"Unsaturated loweralkanoyl" is intended to include those alkanoyl groups containing from 3 to 12 carbon atoms and a double bond such as acryloyl, crotonoyl and the like.
The term "halogen" is intended to include the halogen atoms fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine.
The carbamoyl groups is defined as the following: ##STR4## with optional substitution or disubstitutuion on the nitrogen atom.
The most preferred substitution is a loweralkanoyl group at the 4" position, the 5-position, the 4" and 5 positions or the 4" and 23 positions. The acetyl and propionyl groups are the most preferred loweralkanoyl group.
The acylated compounds are prepared using acylation techniques in which the reaction conditions will vary, depending upon the reactivity of the hydroxy group being acylated. Where there is more than one hydroxy group to be acylated, different reaction conditions are employed to minimize the formation of mixtures.
The acylation reagents employed are generally the halide, preferably the chloride, of the above named acyl groups. Thus the acyl halide reagent in the case of the loweralkanoyl, substituted loweralkanoyl and unsaturated loweralkanoyl acyl groups would be the loweralkanoyl, substituted loweralkanoyl or unsaturated loweralkanoyl halide. Similarly the loweralkoxycarbonyl halide; benzoyl or substituted benzoyl halide; carbamoyl or substituted carbamoyl halide could be employed to form the respective acylated compound. The acyl haloformate, preferably the chloroformate is another successful acylation reagent.
In addition, in the case of the loweralkanoyl, substituted loweralkanoyl, benzoyl or substituted benzoyl groups, the acylation reagent could be in the form of the anhydride. In the case of reactions carried out with the halide reagents, it is often advantageous to include in the reaction mixture a basic compound capable of reacting with and neutralizing the hydrogen halide which is liberated during the course of the reaction. Tertiary amines are preferred such as triethylamine, pyridine, 4-dimethylamino pyridine, diisopropyl ethylamine and the like. The basic compound is required in equimolar amounts relative to the numbered moles of hydrogen halide being liberated, however excess amounts, even using the basic compound as a solvent, are not detrimental.
In the case of the A1 compounds, there is only a single hydroxy group, 4" hydroxy, which may be acylated. The formation of the monosaccharide or the aglycone still leaves only a single hydroxy group which may be acylated, that is the 4' or 13 hydroxy group.
In the case of the 4", 4' and 13 hydroxy groups of C-076 A1 compounds, the acylating reagent is dissolved in a suitable solvent, pyridine is preferred, and the acylating reagent added. The reaction is maintained at from 0.degree. C. to room temperature for from 4 to 24 hours. The product is isolated using known techniques.
The A2 compounds have two available hydroxy groups, the 4"(4' or 13) or the 23 positions. The different hydroxy groups may be selectively acylated by controlling the reaction conditions.
The 4"(4' or 13) monoacyl compound may be prepared by using the reaction conditions described above for the A1 compound. Since the 23 hydroxy is less reactive than the 4"(4' or 13) position, mild reaction conditions (0.degree. C.) will afford predominantly the monoacyl compound. Heating the reaction mixture at from room temperature to 100.degree. C. for from 1 to 24 hours will produce the 4"(4' or 13), 23-diacyl compound. If the 23 monoacyl compound is desired, the diacyl compound is treated with aqueous base, such as sodium hydroxide, at room temperature for from 1 to 24 hours. The 4"(4' or 13) acyl group will be hydrolyzed leaving the 23 monoacyl compound.
The B1 compounds also have 2 available hydroxy groups: at the 4"(4' or 13) and the 5-positions. However, in this case the two hydroxy groups have similar reactivities. When the reaction of the acylating agent in pyridine is carried out at about room temperature for from 4 to 24 hours, the diacyl compound is recovered. When the reaction is carried out at 0.degree. C. a mixture of the 4"(4' or 13) and 5 monoacyl compounds are recovered. To recover individual compounds, the mixture is placed on a chromatographic column or a preparative layer chromatographic plate of alumina or silica gel and the individual compounds are readily isolated. In addition, techniques such as high pressure liquid chromatography may be employed to separate mixtures of acylated compounds.
The B2 compounds have three hydroxy groups available for substitution: the 4"(4' or 13), 5 and 23 positions. The relative reactivity of the various hydroxy groups is the same as in the other series of compounds. Thus, the triacyl compound may be prepared by carrying out the reaction at from room temperature to 100.degree. C. The 4"(4' or 13), 5 diacyl compound may be prepared by carrying out the reaction at no more than room temperature. At 0.degree. C. a mixture of 4"(4' or 13), and 5 monoacyl compounds is recovered which is separable as described above. By varying the reaction conditions and sequence, and by hydrolyzing the undesired acyl groups, all combinations of mono and diacyl compound may be recovered. For example, to prepare the 23-acyl compound, the triacyl compound is hydrolyzed with aqueous base as described above to remove the 4"(4' or 13) and 5 acyl groups. Acylation of the 23 monoacyl compound at 0.degree. C. will result in a mixture of the diacyl compounds which is readily separable.
The above described acyl compounds are isolated from the reaction mixture using techniques known to those skilled in this art.
The novel acylated compounds of this invention have significant parasiticidal activity as anthelmintics, insecticides, ectoparasiticides and acaricides, in human and animal health and in agriculture.
The disease or group of diseases described generally as helminthiasis is due to infection of an animal host with parasitic worms known as helminths. Helminthiasis is a prevalent and serious economic problem in domesticated animals such as swine, sheep, horses, cattle, goats, dogs, cats and poultry. Among the helminths, the group of worms described as nematodes causes widespread and often times serious infection in various species of animals. The most common genera of nematodes infecting the animals referred to above are Haemonchus, Trichostrongylus, Ostertagia, Nematodirus, Cooperia, Ascaris, Bunostomum, Oesophagostomum, Chabertia, Trichuris, Strongylus, Trichonema, Dictyocaulus, Capillaria, Heterakis, Toxocara, Ascaridia, Oxyuris, Ancylostoma, Uncinaria, Toxascaris and Parascaris. Certain of these, such as Nematodirus, Cooperia, and Oesophagostomum attack primarily the intestinal tract while others, such as Haemonchus and Ostertagia, are more prevalent in the stomach while still others such as Dictyocaulus are found in the lungs. Still other parasites may be located in other tissues and organs of the body such as the heart and blood vessels, subcutaneous and lymphatic tissue and the like. The parasitic infections known as helminthiases lead to anemia, malnutrition, weakness, weight loss, severe damage to the walls of the intestinal tract and other tissues and organs and, if left untreated, may result in death of the infected host. The acylated C-076 compounds of this invention have unexpectedly high activity against these parasites, and in addition are also active against Dirofilaria in dogs, Nematospiroides, Syphacia, Aspiculuris in rodents, arthropod ectoparasites of animals and birds such as ticks, mites, lice, fleas, blowfly, in sheep Lucilia sp., biting insects and such migrating dipterous larvae as Hypoderma sp. in cattle. Gastrophilus in horses, and Cuterebra sp. in rodents.
The instant compounds are also useful against parasites which infect humans. The most common genera of parasites of the gastro-intestinal tract of man are Ancylostoma, Necator, Ascaris, Strongyloides, Trichinella, Capillaria, Trichuris, and Enterobius. Other medically important genera of parasites which are found in the blood or other tissues and organs outside the gastrointestinal tract are the filiarial worms such as Wuchereria, Brugia, Onchocerca and Loa, Dracunculus and extra intestinal stages of the intestinal worms Strongyloides and Trichinella. The compounds are also of value against arthropods parasitizing man, biting insects and other dipterous pests causing annoyance to man.
The compounds are also active against household pests such as the cockroach, Blatella sp., clothes moth, Tineola sp., carpet beetle, Attagenus sp. and the housefly Musca domestica.
The compounds are also useful against insect pests of stored grains such as Tribolium sp., Tenebrio sp. and of agricultural plants such as spider mites, (Tetranychus sp.), aphids, (Acyrthiosiphon sp.); against migratory orthopterans such as locusts and immature stages of insects living on plant tissue. The compounds are useful as a nematocide for the control of soil nematodes and plant parasites such as Meloidogyne spp. which may be of importance in agriculture.
These compounds may be administered orally in a unit dosage such as a capsule, bolus or tablet, or as a liquid drench where used as an anthelmintic in mammals. The drench is normally a solution, suspension or dispersion of the active ingredient usually in water together with a suspending agent such as bentonite and a wetting agent or like excipient. Generally, the drenches also contain an antifoaming agent. Drench formulations generally contains from about 0.001 to 0.5% by weight of the active compound. Preferred drench formulations may contain from 0.01 to 0.1% by weight. The capsules and boluses comprise the active ingredient admixed with a carrier vehicle such as starch, talc, magnesium stearate, or di-calcium phosphate.
Where it is desired to administer the C-076 compounds in a dry, solid unit dosage form, capsules, boluses or tablets containing the desired amount of active compound usually are employed. These dosage forms are prepared by intimately and uniformly mixing the active ingredient with suitable finely divided diluents, fillers, disintegrating agents and/or binders such as starch, lactose, talc, magnesium stearate, vegetable gums and the like. Such unit dosage formulations may be varied widely with respect to their total weight and content of the antiparasitic agent depending upon factors such as the type of host animal to be treated, the severity and type of infection and the weight of the host.
When the active compound is to be administered an aminal feedstuff, it is intimately dispersed in the feed or used as a top dressing or in the form of pellets which may then be added to the finished feed or optionally fed separately. Alternatively, the antiparasitic compounds of our invention may be administered to animals parenterally, for example, by intraruminal, intramuscular, intratracheal, or subcutaneous injection in which event the active ingredient is dissolved or dispersed in a liquid carrier vehicle. For parenteral administration, the active material is suitably admixed with an acceptable vehicle, preferably of the vegetable oil variety such as peanut oil, cotton seed oil and the like. Other parenteral vehicles such as organic preparations using solketal, glycerol-formal and aqueous parenteral formulations are also used. The active acylated C-076 compound or compounds are dissolved or suspended in the parenteral formulation for administration; such formulations generally contain from 0.005 to 5% by weight of the active compound.
Although the antiparasitic agents of this invention find their primary use in the treatment and/or prevention of helminthiasis, they are also useful in the prevention and treatment of diseases caused by other parasites, for example, arthropod parasites such as ticks, lice, fleas, mites and other biting and sucking insects in domesticated animals and poultry. They are also effective in treatment of parasitic diseases that occur in other animals including humans. The optimum amount to be employed for best results will, of course, depend upon the particular compound employed, the species of animal to be treated and the type and severity of parasitic infection or infestation. Generally, good results are obtained with our novel compounds by the oral administration of from about 0.001 to 10 mg. per kg. of animal body weight, such total dose being given at one time or in divided doses over a relatively short period of time such as 1-5 days. With the preferred compounds of the invention, excellent control of such parasites is obtained in animals by administering from about 0.025 to 0.5 mg. per kg. of body weight in a single dose. Repeat treatments are given as required to combat re-infections and are dependent upon the species of parasite and the husbandry techiques being employed. The techniques for administering these materials to animals are known to those skilled in the veterinary field. The compounds may also be administered in combination with other antiparasitic compounds or compounds with other biological activities to provide for a single treatment with a broadened spectrum of activity.
When the compounds described herein are administered as a component of the feed of the animals, or dissolved or suspended in the drinking water, compositions are provided in which the active compound or compounds are intimately dispersed in an inert carrier or diluent. By inert carrier is meant one that will not react with the antiparasitic agent and one that may be administered safely to animals. Preferably, a carrier for feed administration is one that is, or may be, an ingredient of the animal ration.
Suitable compositions include feed premixes or supplements in which the active ingredient is present in relatively large amounts and which are suitable for direct feeding to the animal or for addition to the feed either directly or after an intermediate dilution or blending step. Typical carriers or diluents suitable for such compositions include, for example, distillers' dried grains, corn meal, citrus meal, fermentation residues, ground oyster shells, wheat shorts, molasses solubles, corn cob meal, edible bean mill feed, soya grits, crushed limestone and the like. The active acylated C-076 compounds are intimately dispersed throughout the carrier by methods such as grinding, stirring, milling or tumbling. Compositions containing from about 0.005 to 2.0% by weight of the active compound are particularly suitable as feed premixes. Feed supplements, which are fed directly to the animal, contain from about 0.0002 to 0.3% by weight of the active compounds.
Such supplements are added to the animal feed in an amount to give the finished feed the concentration of active compound desired for the treatment and control of parasitic diseases. Although the desired concentration of active compound will vary depending upon the factors previously mentioned as well as upon the particular acylated C-076 compound employed, the compounds of this invention are usually fed at concentrations between 0.00001 to 0.002% in the feed in order to achieve the desired antiparasitic result.
In using the compounds of this invention, the individual acylated C-076 components may be prepared and used in that form. Alternatively, mixtures of two or more of the individual acylated C-076 components may be used.
In the isolation of the C-076 compounds, which serve as starting materials for the instant processes, from the fermentation broth, the various C-076 compounds will be found to have been prepared in unequal amounts. In particular an "a" series compound will be prepared in a higher proportion than the corresponding "b" series compound. The weight ratio of "a" series to the corresponding "b" series is about 85:15 to 99:1. The differences between the "a" series and "b" series is constant throughout the C-076 compounds and consists of a butyl group and a propyl group respectively at the 25 position. This difference, of course, does not interfere with any of the instant reactions. In particular, it may not be necessary to separate the "b" components from the related "a" component. Separation of these closely related compounds is generally not practiced since the "b" compound is present only in a very small percent by weight, and the structural difference has negligible effects on the reaction processes and biological activities.
The C-076 compounds of this invention are also useful in combatting agricultural pests that inflict damage upon crops while they are growing or while in storage. The compounds are applied using known techniques as sprays, dusts, emulsions and the like, to the growing or stored crops to effect protection from such agricultural pests.
The following examples are provided in order that the invention might be more fully understood; they are not to be construed as limitations of the invention.
The C-076 derivatives prepared in the following examples are generally isolated as amorphous solids and not as crystalline solids. They are thus characterized analytically using techniques such as mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonances and the like. Being amorphous, the compounds are not characterized by sharp melting points, however the chromatographic and analytical methods employed indicate that the compounds are pure.
