2. Description of the prior art

The well-known compound among the carbapenem antibiotics which is a subject compound of the present invention is an antibiotic thienamycine which is produced by incubating special Streptomyces species and is active against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. (Reference to the U.S. Pat. No. 3,950,357, Kahan et.al.). But, there was a defect such that this compound was decomposed by an enzyme named Dehydropeptidase-1 (DHP-1), so that the effect of this compound was decreased.

To solve the above problem, the method in which a inhibitor of DHP-1 enzyme named cilastatine is used together with a thienamycine was suggested by MERCK and CO., Inc. (Reference to the European Patent No. 48,301), but there was a still problem for using this composite of cilastatine and thienamycine.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Therefore, with concern the aforementioned problem, present inventors have studied for a long time to provide carbapenem antibiotics which are stable against DHP-1 enzyme and have synthesized new 1-.beta.-methyl-2-thiolic carbapenem derivatives(I) having .beta.-methyl group on the carbapenem ring. Also, present inventors have found that this new compound is very stable against the DHP-1 enzyme and is highly effective in both gram-positive and gram-negative microorganism, especially has a remarkable effect on the Pseudomonas aeruginosa known as a disease germ having strong resistance and that this effect arises from effective shielding of carbapenem ring by .beta.-methyl group in 1-.beta.-methyl-carbapenem derivatives(I).

In the present invention, the carbapenem ring in 1-.beta.-methyl-2-thiolic carbapenem derivatives having general formula (I) has 4 chiral carbon atoms and the maximum number of optical isomer configuration that can exist is 16(=2.sup.4). Among these optical isomer configurations, especially (1R, 5S, 6S,8R)-configuration represented by following formula is superior to in vivo activity. ##STR4##

Also, in the 1-.beta.-methyl-2-thiolic carbapenem derivatives (I) according to the present invention, thiol derivatives substituted on C-2 position of carbapenem ring show the optical isomerism according to circumstance and the maximum number of optical isomer configuration that can exist is 4(=2.sup.2). Among these optical isomer configurations, especially (3S, 5S)-configuration represented by following formula shows remarkable effect in vivo activity. ##STR5##

1-.beta.-methyl-2-thiolic carbapenem derivatives (I) according to the present invention can be prepared by, for example, following reaction procedure:

(1) a step for producing a following compound (III) by reaction of compound (II) as a starting material with diphenyl chlorophosphate or trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride in the present of a base, ##STR6## (In the above formula (II) and (III), p.sup.1 denotes a --COOH protecting group and X denotes --OPO(OPh).sub.2 or --OSOOCF.sub.3) (2) a step for producing a protected carbapenem having following general formula (V) by reaction of the above compound (III) with thiol derivatives having following general formula (IV) in the present of a base, and ##STR7## (In the above formula (IV) and (V), R.sup.2 is the same as defined in formula (I) and p.sup.2 denotes an amine protecting group) (3) a step for producing the 1-.beta.-methyl-2-thiolic carbapenem derivatives (I) by adding an organic solvent, phosphate or 4-MOPS buffer solution and palladium-on-charcoal catalyst into said protected carbapenem (V) in sequence and eliminating the protecting group by injecting with hydrogen. ##STR8##

In the process of the present invention, the group p.sup.1 is a protecting group which is generally used for protecting --COOH and, for example, is p-nitrobenzyl or allyl group. The group P.sup.2 is a protecting group which is used for protecting amine and, for example, is p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl group.

Also, in 1-.beta.-methyl-2-thiolic carbapenem derivatives (I) according to the present invention, the compound in which R.sup.1 group is anion can be produced by forming a cation on R.sup.2 position of protected carbapenem(V) obtained from step (2) by alkylation reaction, which followed by step (3) in which said protecting group is eliminated. For example, zwitter-ionic 1-.beta.-methyl-2-thiolic carbapenem derivatives (I) in which R.sup.2 is N-(S-alkylthiomopholinylium) can be produced by following reaction mechanism. ##STR9## (in this formula, R.sup.3 denotes methyl or low alkyl group of C.sub.2 -C.sub.4)

Zwitter-ionic 1-.beta.-methyl-2-thiolic carbapenem derivatives(I) synthesized by above-mentioned method Is generally quite soluble in water. R.sup.2 which is suitable for forming a cation by alkylation reaction is N-thiazolyl or N-thiomorpholinyl group. In the above-mentioned alkylation reaction, conventional alkylating agents can be used and for example, methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate and alkyl halide such as methyl iodide are preferable.
