The carboxy group can also be protected in the form of one of the aforementioned readily hydrolysable esters. Furthermore, the carboxy group can be protected by salt formation with an inorganic or tertiary organic base such as trimethylamine. Possible protecting groups are e.g. benzhydryl, tert. butyl, p-nitro-benzyl, p-methoxy-benzyl or allyl.
The amino group present in the acylating agent of formula III can be protected. Possible protecting groups R.sup.f are, for example, protecting groups which are cleavable by acid hydrolysis (e.g. the tert.butoxycarbonyl or trityl groups) or by basic hydrolysis (e.g. the trifluoroacetyl group). Preferred protecting groups are the phenylacetyl, the chloroacetyl, bromoacetyl and iodoacetyl groups, especially the chloroacetyl group. These last-mentioned protecting groups can be cleaved off by treatment with thiourea. The 7-amino group in compounds II can be protected, for example, by a silyl protecting group such as the trimethylsilyl group.
In reacting a 7-amino compound of formula II with a carboxylic acid of formula III or a reactive functional derivative thereof, for example, a free carboxylic acid can be reacted with an aforementioned ester of a compound of formula II in the presence of a carbodiimide such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide in an inert solvent such as ethyl acetate, acetonitrile, dioxan, chloroform, methylene chloride, benzene or dimethylformamide, and subsequently the ester group can be cleaved off. Oxazolium salts (e.g. N-ethyl-5-phenyl-isoxazolium-3'-sulphonate) can be used in place of carbodiimides in the foregoing reaction.
According to another embodiment, a salt of an acid of formula II (e.g. a trialkylammonium salt such as the triethylammonium salt) is reacted with a reactive functional derivative of a carboxylic acid of formula III as mentioned earlier in an inert solvent (e.g. one of the aforementioned solvents).
According to a further embodiment, an acid halide, preferably the chloride, of a carboxylic acid of formula III is reacted with an amine of formula II. The reaction is preferably carried out in the presence of an acid-binding agent, for example in the presence of aqueous alkali, preferably sodium hydroxide, or in the presence of an alkali metal carbonate such as potassium carbonate or in the presence of a lower alkylamine such as triethylamine. As the solvent there is preferably used water, optionally in admixture with an inert organic solvent such as tetrahydrofuran or dioxan. The reaction can also be carried out in an aprotic organic solvent such as dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, dimethylsulphoxide or hexamethylphosphoric acid triamide. When a silylated compound of formula II is used, the reaction is carried out in an anhydrous medium.
Advantageous alternatives for acylation, where the amino group present in the acylating agent of formula III need not be protected, involves the use of a 2-benzothiazolyl thioester, a 1-hydroxybenzotriazole ester or a mixed anhydride of thiophosphoric acid of the carboxylic acid. For instance, the 2-benzthiazolyl thioester may be reacted with the compound II in an inert organic solvent such as a chlorinated hydrocarbon e.g. methylene chloride, in acetone, ethyl acetate or in a mixture of such solvents with water. The 1-hydroxybenzotriazole ester can be employed by reacting the carboxylic acid with 1-hydroxybenzotriazole and a carbodiimide, especially N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide or N,N'-diisopropylcarbodiimide in an inert organic solvent, preferably methylene chloride, dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran, acetonitrile or ethyl acetate.
The reaction of a 7-amino compound of formula II with the carboxylic acid of formula III or a reactive derivative thereof can conveniently be carried out at a temperature between about -40.degree. C. and +60.degree. C., e.g. at room temperature (about 20.degree. C.).
Embodiment (b) of the process of the present invention involves deprotection (removal) of protected amino, hydroxy or carboxylic groups present in a compound of formula IV and can be carried and as follows:
Removal of amino protecting groups
Possible amino-protecting groups are those employed in peptide chemistry, such as an alkoxycarbonyl group, e.g., t-butoxycarbonyl, etc., a substituted alkoxycarbonyl group, e.g., trichloroethoxycarbonyl etc., an optionally substituted aralkyloxycarbonyl group, e.g., p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl or benzyloxycarbonyl, an aralkyl group such as trityl or benzhydryl or a halogen-alkanoyl group such as chloroacetyl, bromoacetyl, iodoacetyl or trifluoroacetyl.
Preferred protecting groups are t-butoxycarbonyl (t-BOC) and trityl.
The amino protecting groups may be cleaved off by acid hydrolysis (e.g. the t-butoxycarbonyl or trityl group), e.g. aqueous formic acid, or by basic hydrolysis (e.g. the trifluoroacetyl group). The chloroacetyl, bromoacetyl and iodoacetyl groups are cleaved off by treatment with thiourea.
Amino-protecting groups which are cleavable by acid hydrolysis are preferably removed with the aid of a lower alkanecarboxylic acid which may be halogenated. In particular, formic acid or trifluoroacetic acid is used. The reaction is carried out in the acid or in the presence of a co-solvent such as a halogenated lower alkane, e.g. methylene chloride. The acid hydrolysis is generally carried out at room temperature, although it can be carried out at a slightly higher or slightly lower temperature (e.g. a temperature in the range of about -30.degree. C. to +40.degree. C.). Protecting groups which are cleavable under basic conditions are generally hydrolyzed with dilute aqueous caustic alkali at about 0.degree. C. to 30.degree. C. The chloroacetyl, bromoacetyl and iodoacetyl protecting groups can be cleaved off using thiourea in acidic, neutral or alkaline medium at about 0.degree. C.-30.degree. C.
Removal of hydroxy protecting groups
Possible hydroxy protecting groups are such as are commonly known in the art, e.g.
for protection of hydroxyimino groups (R.sup.1 =hydrogen in compounds of formula I), usually trityl, lower alkanoyl, preferably acetyl, tetrahydropyranyl protecting groups are employed.
These protecting groups are e.g. removed as follows:
trityl in acidic solvents like 90% formic acid at about 0 to 50.degree. C. or triethylsilane in trifluoroacetic acid at about -20 to 25.degree. C.; in organic solutions of hydrochloric acid at about -50 to 25.degree. C.;
acetyl with weak inorganic bases like sodium bicarbonate in ethanol/water at about 0 to 50.degree. C.; tetrahydropyranyl with weak organic acids like p-toluenesulfonic acid in an alcohol, e.g. ethanol, at about 0.degree. C. to the boiling point of the mixture.
Removal of protecting groups at the carboxy function
As ester protecting groups one may utilize an ester form which can be easily converted into a free carboxyl group under mild conditions, the ester protecting group being exemplified by, for example, t-butyl, p-nitrobenzyl, p-methoxybenzyl, benzhydryl, allyl, etc.
These protecting groups may be removed as follows:
benzhydryl trifluoroacetic acid with anisol, phenol, cresol or triethylsilane at about -40.degree. C. to room temperature; hydrogen with Pd/C in an alcohol such as ethanol or in tetrahydrofuran; BF.sub.3 -etherate in acetic acid at about 0 to 50.degree. C.;
t-butyl formic acid or trifluoroacetic acid with or without anisol, phenol, cresol or triethylsilane and a solvent such as dichloromethane at about -10.degree. C. to room temperature;
p-nitrobenzyl sodium sulfide in acetone/water at about 0 to room temperature; or hydrogen with Pd/C in an alcohol such as ethanol or in tetrahydrofuran;
p-methoxybenzyl formic acid at about 0 to 50.degree. C.; or trifluoroacetic acid and anisol, phenol or triethylsilane at about -40.degree. C. to room temperature;
allyl palladium(O) catalyzed transalkylation reaction in the presence of sodium or potassium salt of 2-ethyl hexanoic acid, see for example J. Org. Chem. 1982, 47, 587.
In order to make a readily hydrolysable ester of the carboxylic acids of formula I in accordance with embodiment (c) of the process provided by the present invention, a carboxylic acid of formula I is preferably reacted with a corresponding halide, preferably an iodide, containing the desired ester group. The reaction can be accelerated with the aid of a base such as an alkali metal hydroxide, an alkali metal carbonate or an organic amine such as triethylamine. The esterification is preferably carried out in an inert organic solvent such as dimethylacetamide, hexamethylphosphoric acid triamide, dimethyl sulfoxide or, especially, dimethylformamide. The reaction is preferably carried out at a temperature in the range of about 0-40.degree. C.
Making salts and hydrates of the compounds of formula I or the hydrates of said salts in accordance with embodiment (d) of the process as provided by the present invention can be carried out in a manner known to those of ordinary skill in the art; for example, by reacting a carboxylic acid of formula I or a salt thereof with an equivalent amount of the desired base, conveniently in a solvent such as water or an organic solvent (e.g. ethanol, methanol, acetone and the like). Correspondingly, salt formation is brought about by the addition of an organic or inorganic salt. The temperature at which the salt formation is carried out is not critical. The salt formation is generally carried out at room temperature, but it can be carried out at a temperature slightly above or below room temperature, for example in the range of 0.degree. C. to +50.degree. C.
Making the hydrates usually takes place automatically in the course of the manufacturing process or as a result of the hygroscopic properties of an initially anhydrous product. For the controlled formation of a hydrate, a completely or partially anhydrous carboxylic acid of formula I or salt thereof can be exposed to a moist atmosphere (e.g. at about +10.degree. C. to +40.degree. C.).
Exemplary of the process for obtaining products in accordance with the invention are the following reaction schemes 1 and 2 below. ##STR21## wherein R.sup.f is an amino protecting group as defined above, R.sup.h is an carboxy protecting group as defined above, PTK stands for phase transfer catalyst, and TBDMS is the tert.butyl-dimethylsilanyloxy group.

The reaction is carried out in the presence of a base which is either an inorganic base (sodium or potassium hydroxide, sodium or potassium carbonate etc.), an organic base (tertiary amines), an organolithium such as butyl lithium or phenyllithium or an epoxide such as 1,2-butyleneoxide. The reaction in presence of an epoxide is preferred. The preferred solvents, in the case of inorganic base being used, are water and water-miscible solvent (acetone, tetrahydrofuran, or alcohols etc.); in the case of organic base being used, an inert solvent such as methylene chloride, chloroform, benzene, tetrahydrofuran; in the case of organolithium being used, benzene or tetrahydrofuran; and in the case an epoxide being used, the epoxide itself (e.g. 1,2-butyleneoxide). The temperature for the reaction ranges from -20.degree. C. to 110.degree. C. The preferred conditions are exemplified in the examples.
In the normal Wittig reaction according to scheme 2, the E isomer is the predominant product. Invariably, less than 10% Z-isomer is formed, the amount depending on the reagents and conditions.
(12).fwdarw.(13)
The protecting groups R.sup.f and R.sup.h are removed and the reaction conditions used are depending on the nature of the protecting groups. In the case of R.sup.f being tert-butoxycarbonyl and R.sup.h being benzhydryl, trifluoroacetic acid and anisole or triethylsilane is employed, at temperature of about -20.degree. C. to about room temperature (about 22.degree. C.).

The reaction is carried out with or without the base (inorganic or organic bases) depending on the method of activation and a wide range of solvents, from water and water-miscible solvent to inert solvents such as chloroform, dimethylformamide (DMF) or dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) can be used. The substituents of R.sup.1 group, if necessary, can be further deprotected with a reaction condition suitable for the removal of the protecting group.
For the preparation of optionally substituted pyridinium derivatives, i.e. compounds of formula I wherein R.sup.2 represent a pyridinium residue the quaternisation of the corresponding pyridine derivative can either be performed subsequent to the Wittig reaction (10).fwdarw.(12) by substituting compounds (12) wherein R.sup.2 is 2-, 3- or 4-pyridinyl in presence of an alkylating agent as for example methyliodide, dimethylsulfate or trimethyloxonium tetrefluoroborate, bromo- or iodoacetamide in a suitable solvent which may be chosen from N,N-dimethylformamide or the like; or the quaternisation can be performed subsequent to the acylation step (13).fwdarw.(15) under the conditions named above, however, alkylation at this step requires intermediate protection of the other sensitive groups in compound (15).
