Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to novel cephalosporin derivatives, processes for their preparation and antibacterial agents containing them as active ingredients.
2. Description of the Prior Art
A number of cephalosporin compounds have been synthesized which have a 2-(2-aminothiazol-4-yl)-2-substituted oxyiminoacetamido group as a side chain at the 7-position of the cephalosporin nucleus. As publications which disclose such compounds, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publications No. 102293/1977, No. 116492/1977, No. 137988/1978, No. 9296/1979, No. 154786/1979, No. 157596/1979, No. 154980/1980, No. 86187/1981, No. 59895/1982, No. 99592/1982, No. 192394/1982 and No. 174387/1983, may be mentioned. It is suggested that such compounds exhibit activities against Gram-positive bacteria and cephalosporin resistant Gram-negative bacteria including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and they have excellent antibacterial activities and a broad antibacterial spectrum. However, few of them are substantially active against glucose non-fermentative Gram-negative rods, such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pseudomonas cepacia, Pseudomonas maltophilia and Acinetobacter calcoaceticus.
Further, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publications No. 57386/1983 and No. 130294/1989 disclose compounds having an isoquinoliniomethyl group at the 3-position of the cephem nucleus. Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 57386/1983 discloses unsubstituted and mono-substituted isoquinoliniomethyl groups. A number of substituents are mentioned. However, so long as a hydroxyl group is concerned, only a 5-OH derivative and a 8-OH derivative have been synthesized. Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 130294/1984 discloses that the isoquinoline nucleus may have a number of substituents. However, only the 5-OH derivative has been practically synthesized. With respect to the hydroxyl group-substituted compounds, these prior art references give merely general statements, and no data on the antibacterial activities are given. Further, there is no disclosure which teaches that the isoquinoline ring may have two hydroxyl groups, and there is no suggestion at all about 6,7-dihydroxy derivatives having adjacent hydroxyl groups.
Since .beta.-lactam antibiotics exhibit selective toxicity only against bacteria and present no substantial effects against animal cells, they have been widely used as antibiotics having no substantial side effects for the treatment of infectious diseases caused by bacteria, and thus they are highly useful drugs.
However, in recent years, glucose non-fermentative Gram-negative rods, particularly Pseudomonas aeruginosa have been frequently isolated as causative organisms of refractory infections from immuno-compromized patient, which has posed a serious problem. Therefore, it is desired and beneficial as well to provide antimicrobial agents with improved activity against such bacteria.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
It is an object of the present invention to provide novel cephalosporin derivatives having excellent antibacterial activities.
As a result of an extensive research, it has been found that novel cephalosporin derivatives having a 6,7-dihydroxyisoquinoliniomethyl group or a 6,7-diacetoxyisoquinoliniomethyl group at the 3-position and a 2-(2-aminothiazol-4-yl)-2-substituted oxyiminoacetamido group at the 7-position, have strong antibacterial activities against Gram-negative bacteria particularly glucose non-fermentative Gram-negative rods, such as Pseudomonas aeuginosa, Pseudomonas cepacia, Pseudomonas maltophilia, and Acinetobacter calcoaceticus as compared with a compound having a non-substituted isoquinoline nucleus and with a monohydroxy compound, and they have excellent stability against .beta.-lactamase and a low .beta.-lactamase-inducibility. The present invention has been accomplished on the basis of these discoveries.
Namely, the present invention has been accomplished on the basis of the discoveries such that the compounds of the present invention having hydroxyl groups or acetoxy groups at the 6- and 7-positions of the isoquinoline nucleus in the isoquinoliniomethyl group at the 3-position of the cephem nucleus are new compounds not disclosed in any literature, and that they have unexpectedly high antibacterial activities particularly against infectious resistant Gram-negative bacteria as compared with a compound wherein the isoquinoline nucleus is unsubstituted (the compounds of Reference Examples 1 and 2 correspond to compounds of Examples 57 and 36 of Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 130294/1984 respectively; the compounds of Reference Examples 2 and 3 correspond to compounds of Examples 7 and 6 of Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 57386/1983 respectively) and they have excellent stability against .beta.-lactamase.

Now, processes A and B for the preparation of the compounds of the formula I of the present invention, will be described in detail.
Process A
The reaction of the compound of the formula II with the 6,7-di-substituted isoquinoline of the formula III, may be conducted in an organic solvent such as methylene chloride, chloroform, ethyl ether, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, tetrahydrofuran, acetonitrile, N,N-dimethylformamide or dimethylsulfoxide, or in a mixture of such solvents. The di-substituted isoquinoline of the formula III may be employed in the form of its acid addition salt such as hydrochloride, hydrobromide, sulfate, nitrate, formate or acetate. In such a case, this reaction is conducted in the presence of an acid-absorbing agent such as triethylamine, diisopropylethylamine, N,N-dimethylaniline or N-methylmorpholine in an amount sufficient for neutralization. Further, the di-substituted isoquinoline of the formula III may be employed in a form silylated with a silylating agent such as N,O-bistrimethylsilylacetoamide. The reaction is conducted by using from 1 to 2 mols of the di-substituted isoquinoline of the formula III relative to 1 mol of the compound of the formula II. The reaction temperature and the reaction time are from 0.degree. to 40.degree. C. and from 0.5 to 5 hours, respectively.
The reaction of a compound of the formula II wherein X is an acetoxy group, with the di-substituted isoquinoline of the formula III, may be conducted in a solvent such as water, a phosphoric acid buffer solution, acetone, acetonitrile, methanol, ethanol, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, N,N-dimethylformamide or dimethylsulfoxide, in a mixture of such solvents. The reaction is preferably conducted under a neutral condition. The reaction temperature is from room temperature to 90.degree. C., and the reaction time is from 1 to 10 hours. The reaction is facilitated by conducting it in the presence of an iodide such as sodium iodide or potassium iodide, or a thiocyanate such as sodium thiocyanate or potassium thiocyanate.
The sulfoxide group of an ammonio compound of the formula IV wherein Y is SO, may be reduced by a method described in e.g. Journal of Organic Chemistry, Vol. 35, p 2430 (1974). Namely, the ammonio compound of the formula IV wherein Y is SO may be reduced by reacting it in acetone as a solvent in the presence of sodium iodide or potassium iodide with a dropwise addition of acetyl chloride at a temperature of from -40.degree. to 0.degree. C. for from 1 to 5 hours. The reaction is conducted by using from 3.5 to 10 mols of the iodide and from 1.5 to 5 mols of acetyl chloride relative to 1 mol of the compound of the formula IV wherein Y is SO.
The compound of the formula I of the present invention may be prepared, if necessary, by removing the protecting groups from the compound of the formula IV wherein Y is S. The removal of the protecting groups may be conducted by employing a suitable method selected, for instance, from those described in Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis (1981) written by T. W. Greene. For instance, the removal of a protecting group such as trityl, formyl, t-butoxycarbonyl, benzhydryl, t-butyl or 2-methoxyethoxymethyl, may be conducted with an inorganic or organic acid such as hydrochloric acid, formic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, benzenesulfonic acid or p-toluenesulfonic acid. Trifluoroacetic acid is particularly preferred.
When trifluoroacetic acid is used as the acid, the reaction can be facilitated by an addition of anisole, and side reactions can be thereby suppressed.
The reaction may be conducted in a solvent which is inert to the reaction, such as water, methylene chloride, chloroform, ethylene chloride or benzene, or in a mixture of such solvents. The reaction temperature and time are suitably selected depending upon the chemical properties of the compound of the formula IV and the compound of the formula I of the present invention and the type of the protecting group to be removed. The reaction is preferably conducted under a condition ranging from an ice-cooling condition to a slightly heated condition.
The starting compound of the formula II for process A may be prepared in the following manner. The compound of the formula II wherein Y is S can be prepared by reacting benzhydryl 7-amino-3-chloromethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylate (synthesized in accordance with e.g. Japanese Unexamined Patent Publications No. 76089/1975 and No. 86187/1981), 7-aminocephalosporic acid or its ester, with a carboxylic acid of the formula VI or its reactive derivative (such as its acid halide, mixed acid anhydride, activated ester, etc.).
A compound of the formula II wherein Y is SO can be prepared by oxidizing a compound of the formula II wherein Y is S with a stoichiometric amount of m-chloroperbenzoic acid in an organic solvent inert to the reaction such as methylene chloride, ethylene chloride or chloroform, under cooling with ice.
A compound of the formula II wherein X is an iodine atom, can be prepared by reacting a compound of the formula II wherein X is a chlorine atom, with an iodide such as sodium iodide in a solvent such as acetone or N,N-dimethylformamide, under cooling with ice or at room temperature, and the product may be used for the subsequent reaction without or after isolation.
The 6,7-disubstituted quinoline of the formula III can be prepared by the acid hydrolysis of 6,7-dimethoxyisoquinoline synthesized by the method disclosed in e.g. Journal of the American Chemical Society, Vol. 79, p 3773 (1957) or J. Chem. Soc. Perkin, 1., p 2185 (1974) and p 2190 (1974), or by the catalytic reduction of a 6,7-bis(benzyloxy)isoquinoline.
The 2-(2-substituted aminothiazol-4-yl)-2-substituted oxyiminoacetic acid of the formula VI, can be prepared by a method disclosed in e.g. Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 149289/1980.
Process B
The compound of the formula IV may be prepared by reacting the compound of the formula V with the carboxylic acid of the formula VI or its reactive derivative (such as its acid halide, mixed anhydride or activated ester) in a solvent inert to the reaction such as water, acetone, dioxane, acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran, methylene chloride, chloroform, ethylene chloride, benzene, ethyl acetate, N,N-dimethylformamide or dimethylsulfoxide, or in a mixture of such solvents.
The reaction is conducted by using from 1 to 1.5 mols of the carboxylic acid of the formula VI or its reactive derivative relative to 1 mol of the compound of the formula V, and the reaction temperature is from -40.degree. to 40.degree. C.
When an acid halide is used as the reactive derivative of the formula VI, the reaction is preferably conducted in the presence of an acid-absorbing agent such as triethylamine, N-methylmorphorine, N,N-dimethylaniline or pyridine.
The acid halide-forming reaction is carried out by using from 1 to 10 mols, preferably from 1 to 1.5 mols of the halogenating agent such as thionyl chloride, phosphorus trichloride, phosphorus tribromide, phosphorus pentachloride, phosphorus oxychloride, oxalylchloride or phosgene, at a reaction temperature of from -40.degree. to 100.degree. C., preferably from -20.degree. to 20.degree. C. for a reaction time of a few hours.
The mixed acid anhydride-forming reaction is conducted by using from 1 to 1.2 mols of a chloroformate such as methyl chloroformate, ethyl chloroformate or isobutyl chloroformate in the presence of from 1 to 1.2 mols of an acid-absorbing agent such as triethylamine, N-methylmorphorine, N,N-dimethylaniline or pyridine, relative to 1 mol of the carboxylic acid of the formula VI. The reaction temperature is from -40.degree. to 20.degree. C., preferably from -20.degree. to 5.degree. C. The reaction time is from 10 to 60 minutes.
The active ester-forming reaction is conducted by using from 1 to 1.2 mols of a N-hydroxy compound (such as N-hydroxysuccinimide or 1-hydroxybenzotriazole) or a phenol compound (such as 4-nitrophenol, 2,4-dinitrophenol or trichlorophenol) and from 1 to 1.4 mols of N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, relative to 1 mol of the carboxylic acid of the formula VI. The reaction temperature is from -10.degree. to 50.degree. C. The reaction time is from 0.5 to 2 hours.
When the carboxylic acid of the formula VI is used in the form of a free acid in the acylation reaction, the compound of the formula IV may be prepared in the presence of a condensation agent such as a carbodiimide such as N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, or phosphorus oxychloride, an phosphorus oxychloride adduct of N,N-dimethylformamide. The preparation of the compound of the formula I of the present invention from the compound of the formula IV, is substantially the same as in process A.
The starting compound of the formula V in process B, may be prepared by a method disclosed in e.g. Cephalosporins and Penicillins, Academic Press, p 151-171, (1972) written by Lynn. For instance, a 7-acylamino-3-halomethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylate derivative (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 72590/1983 or No. 154588/1983) or a 7-acylamino cephalosporanic acid derivative, is reacted with the 6,7-di-substituted isoquinoline of the formula III to obtain a compound having the formula: ##STR20## wherein R.sup.3 is a hydrogen atom or a carboxyl-protecting group, R.sup.5 is a hydrogen atom or a hydroxyl-protecting group, Y is S or SO, X.sup..crclbar. is an anion as a leaving group, and acyl is an acyl group, followed by deacylation.
The deacylation reaction is commonly known in this field. For instance, there may be mentioned a method comprising iminochlorination with e.g. phosphorus pentachloride, followed by iminoetherification and hydrolysis with e.g. methanol, or a method using an acylase.
As the acyl group, for instance, a phenylacetyl group, a phenoxyacetyl group or an aminoadipyl group may be mentioned.
The in vitro antibacterial activities of the compounds of the present invention against various microorganisms, were measured by the following agar plate dilution method. One platinum loopfull of each test microorganism incubated overnight in Mueller Hinton broth, was inoculated to Mueller Hinton agar (inoculum size: 10.sup.6 CFU/ml). Such culture media containing various antibiotics in various concentrations were prepared. After incubation at 37.degree. C. for 16 hours, the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC: .mu.g/ml) were measured. As comparative compounds, Cefotaxime, Ceftazidime and the compounds of Reference Examples 1 to 4 were employed. The results are shown in the following table.
Thus, the compounds of the present invention exhibit strong antibacterial activities against sensitive and resistant Gram-negative bacteria particularly glucose non-fermentative Gram-negative rods, such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pseudomonas cepacia, Pseudomonas maltophilia, and Acinetobacter calcoaceticus.
Further, with respect to the compound of Example 4, the .beta.-lactamase-inducibility activity was measured by Enterobacter cloacae GN 5797, whereby no substantial .beta.-lactamase-inducing activity was observed. The assay method for induction of .beta.-lactamase by .beta.-lactam antibiotics was as follows:
The test organism, Enterobacter cloacae GN 5797, was grown overnight in Mueller Hinton broth (Dlfco Laboratories, Detroit, Mich.) at 37.degree. C. The culture was diluted 10-fold into 20 ml of the flesh medium and incubated with shaking at 37.degree. C. After 2 hours of incubation, antibiotics were added to final concentrations of 50 .mu.g/ml, 10 .mu.g/ml and 1 .mu.g/ml, and the incubation was continued. At 1 hour intervals after the addition of antibiotic, 3 ml of sample was taken, and immediately added with 0.1 ml of 50 mM sodium azide. The cells were harvested and washed with 50 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.0). The cells were suspended in 50 ml of 50 mM phosphate buffer and disrupted with a sonicater in an ice-water bath. The broken cells were centrifuged at 16,500G for 40 minutes at 4.degree. C., and the resulting supernatant fluid was used as the crude enzyme. .beta.-Lactamase activity was determined by a spectrophotometric method (Antimicrob. Agents Chemother. 17, 355-358, 1980) with cephaloridine as substrate. The concentration of protein was determined by the method of Lowry (J. Biol. Chem. 193, 265-275, 1951).
Thus, the compounds of the formula I and non-toxic salts and physiologically hydrolyzable non-toxic esters thereof are useful as antibacterial agents.
The compounds of the present invention may be mixed with a carrier of solid or liquid excipient, and may be used in the form of a pharmaceutical formulation suitable for parenteral administration, oral administration or external administration. As the pharmaceutical formulations, there may be mentioned liquid formulations such as injection solutions, syrups and emulsions, solid formulations such as tablets, capsules and granules and formulations for external application such as ointments and suppositories. Further, these formulations may contain commonly employed additives such as assisting agents, stabilizers, wetting agents, emulsifying agents, absorption-promoting agents or surfactants. As such additives, distilled water for injection, a Ringer solution, glucose, sucrose syrup, gelatin, edible oil, coconut oil, ethylene glycol, sucrose, corn starch, magnesium stearate and talc, may be mentioned.
Further, the compounds of the present invention can be used as antibacterial agents for the treatment of infections diseases caused by Gram-negative bacteria including glucose non-fermentative Gram-negative rods such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pseudomonas cepacia, Pseudomonas maltophilia, and Acinetobacter calcoaceticus. The dose may vary depending upon the age, sex and condition of the patient, and is usually within a range of from 1 to 100 mg/kg per day. It is preferred to administer a daily dose of from 1 to 50 mg/kg in 2 to 5 times.
Now, the present invention will be described in further detail with reference to Examples. However, it should be understood that the present invention is by no means restricted to these specific Examples.
