In comparison to known representatives of this structural type, the compounds according to the invention exhibit a higher antibacterial action, especially in the Gram-positive range.

X.sup.2 represents halogen, especially fluorine or chlorine, are reacted with compounds of the formula (III) Z--H (III) in which Z is as defined above, optionally in the presence of acid scavengers.

Using for example, 1-cyclopropyl-7,8-dichloro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,6-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid and 4-methylamino-1,3,3a,4,7,7a-hexahydroisoindole, the course of the reaction can be illustrated by the following equation: ##STR9##

The compounds of the formula (IV) used as starting compounds are, with the exception of the compound ##STR13##

It has additionally been found that a compound of the formula (IVa) is obtained ##STR15## if trichloroacryloyl chloride is reached in a reaction sequence as described in Examples Ia. to Id.

The starting compounds for the reaction sequences Ag. to Aj. and Ia. to Id. are, apart from 3,3-dichloro-2-fluoroacryloyl chloride, known. 3,3-Dichloro-2-fluoroacryloyl chloride can be prepared by partial hydrolysis from the known 2-fluoro-1,1,3,3,3-pentachloropropene and is the subject of DE-A 4 401 099.

The amines of the formula (III) used as starting compounds have been described in EP 520 240 and EP 588 166. Chiral amines can be employed either as racemates or as enantiomerically or diastereomerically pure compounds.

The reaction of (II) with (III), in which the compounds (III) may also be employed in the form of their salts, for example the hydrochlorides, is preferably carried out in a diluent such as dimethyl sulphoxide, N,N-diethylformamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, hexamethyl-phosphoric triamide, sulpholane, acetonitrile, water, an alcohol such as methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, isopropanol or glycol monomethyl ether, or pyridine. It is also possible to use mixtures of these compounds.

As acid-binding agents it is possible to use all customary inorganic and organic acid-binding agents. These include, preferably, the alkai metal hydroxides, alkali metal carbonates, organic amines and amidines. Specific compounds which are particularly suitable are: triethylamine, 1,4-diazabicyclo�2.2.2!octane (DABCO), 1,8-diazabicyclo�5.4.0!undec-7-ene (DBU) or excess amine (III).

The reaction temperatures can be varied within a wide range. The reaction is generally carried out between about 0.degree. and 200.degree. C., preferably between 20.degree. and 140.degree. C.

The reaction can be carried out at atmospheric pressure or else at elevated pressure. In general it is carried out at pressures of between about 1 and 100 bar, preferably between 1 and 10 bar.

In carrying out the process according to the invention, from 1 to 15 mol, preferably from 1 to 6 mol, of the compound (III) are employed per mole of the compound (II).

Free amino groups can be protected during the reaction by a suitable amino-protective group, for example by the tert-butoxycarbonyl radical, and after the end of the reaction can be liberated by treatment with a suitable acid, such as hydrochloric acid or trifluoroacetic acid (see Houben-Weyl, Methoden der Organischen Chemie, Volume E4, page 144 (1983); J. F. W. McOmie, Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry (1973), page 43).

The esters according to the invention are obtained by reacting an alkali metal salt of the carboxylic acid on which they are based which may if desired be protected at the nitrogen atom by a protective group such as the tert-butoxycarbonyl radical, with suitable halogenoalkyl derivatives in a solvent such as dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, dimethyl sulphoxide or tetramethylurea, at temperatures of about 0.degree.-100.degree. C., preferably from 0.degree. to 50.degree. C.

The acid addition salts of the compounds according to the invention are prepared in conventional manner, for example by dissolving the betaine in a sufficient amount of aqueous acid and precipitating the salt with a water-miscible organic solvent such as methanol, ethanol, acetone or acetonitrile. It is also possible to heat equivalent amounts of betaine and acid in water or in an alcohol such as glycol monomethyl ether, and then to evaporate the mixture to dryness or to filter off the precipitated salt with suction. Examples of pharmaceutically utilizable salts are the salts of hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid, acetic acid, glycolic acid, lactic acid, succinic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, methanesulphonic acid, 4toluenesulphonic acid, galacturonic acid, gluconic acid, embonic acid, glutamic acid or aspartic acid.

The alkali metal salts or alkaline earth metal salts of the compounds according to the invention are obtained, for example, by dissolving the betaine in less than the equivalent amount of alkali metal hydroxide or alkaline earth metal hydroxide solution, filtering to remove undissolved betaine, and evaporating the filtrate to dryness. Pharmaceutically suitable salts are those of sodium, potassium or calcium. By reaction of an alkali metal salt or alkaline earth metal salt with an appropriate silver salt such as silver nitrate, the corresponding silver salts are obtained.

The compounds according to the invention have a strong antibiotic action and, despite being of low toxicity, display a broad antibacterial spectrum with respect to Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms, including in particular those which are resistant to various antibiotics, for example penicillins, cephalosporins, aminoglycosides, sulphonamides, tetracyclines and to commercially available quinolones.

These valuable properties allow them to be used as chemotherapeutic active compounds in medicine and as preservatives for inorganic and organic materials, for example polymers, lubricants, paints, fibres, leather, paper and wood, foodstuff and water.

The compounds according to the invention are active against a very broad spectrum of microorganisms. Using these compounds it is possible to combat Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria and bacteria-like microorganisms and to prevent, alleviate and/or cure the diseases caused by these pathogens.

The compounds according to the invention are distinguished by an intensified action on dormant microorganisms. In the case of dormant bacteria, i.e. bacteria which show no detectable growth, the compounds have a strong bactericidal action. This applies not only to the amount to be employed, but also to the speed of destruction. Such results have been observed in the case of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, in particular for Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterococcus faecalis and Escherichia coli.

The compounds according to the invention are particularly active against typical and atypical mycobacteria and Helicobacter pylori and against bacteria-like microorganisms, such as, for example, mycoplasms and rickettsias. They are therefore particularly suitable in human and veterinary medicine for the prophylaxis and chemotherapy of local and systemic infections which are caused by these pathogens.

In addition, the compounds are also particularly suitable for the control of protozoonoses and helminthoses.

The compounds according to the invention can be used in a variety of pharmaceutical preparations. Preferred pharmaceutical preparations which may be mentioned are plain and coated tablets, capsules, pills, granules, suppositories, solutions, suspensions and emulsions, pastes, ointments, gels, creams, lotions, powders and sprays.

The compounds according to the invention can be also be linked with .beta.-lactam derivatives such as, for example, cephalosporins or penemens via covalent bonds to form so-called dual-action derivatives.

The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) were determined by a serial dilution method on Iso-Sensitest Agar (Oxoid). For each test substance, a series of agar plates was prepared which contained concentrations of the active compound which decrease at a rate of in each case twice the dilution factor. The agar plates were inoculated using a multipoint inoculator (Denley). For inoculation, overnight cultures of the pathogens were used which had been diluted beforehand in such a manner that each inoculation point contained about 10.sup.4 colony-forming particles. The inoculated agar plates were incubated at 37.degree. C. and the microbial growth was read off after about 20 hours. The MIC value (.mu.g/ml) indicates the lowest concentration of active compound at which no growth can be detected by the naked eye.

The MIC values of some of the compounds according to the invention are listed in the table below in comparison with 7-(3-aminopyrrolidin-1-yl)-1-cyclopropyl-8-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,6-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid (Journal of Heterocyclic Chemistry 30 (1993), 855) as reference compound.
