The pharmaceutically acceptable salts are preferred, although other salts are also useful, e.g., in isolating or purifying the product.
Some of the compounds of this invention may be crystallized or recrystallized from solvents containing water. In these cases, water of hydration may be formed. This invention contemplates stoichiometric hydrates as well as compounds containing variable amounts of water that may be produced by processes such as lyophilization.
The .beta.-lactams of formula I contain at least one chiral center--the carbon atom in the 3-position of the .beta.-lactam nucleus to which the acylamino substituent ("R.sub.1 --NH--") is attached. This invention is directed to those .beta.-lactams which have been described above, wherein the stereochemistry at the chiral center in the 3-position of the .beta.-lactam nucleus is the same as the configuration at the carbon atom in the 6-position of naturally occurring penicillins (e.g., penicillin G) and as the configuration at the carbon atom in the 7-position of naturally occurring cephamycins (e.g., cephamycin C). Also included within the scope of this invention are racemic mixtures which contain the above-described .beta.-lactams.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The .beta.-lactams of formula I, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, have activity against gram-positive and gram-negative organisms. The compounds of this invention can be used as agents to combat bacterial infections (including urinary tract infections and respiratory infections) in mammalian species, such as domesticated animals (e.g., dogs, cats, cows, horses, and the like) and humans.
For combating bacterial infections in mammals, a compound of this invention can be administered to a mammal in need thereof in an amount of about 1.4 mg/kg/day to about 350 mg/kg/day, preferably about 14 mg/kg/day to about 100 mg/kg/day. All modes of administration which have been used in the past to deliver penicillins and cephalosporins to the site of the infection are also contemplated for use with .beta.-lactams of this invention. Such methods of administration include oral, intravenous, intramuscular, and as a suppository.
The .beta.-lactams of formula I can be prepared from a 3-protected amino-2-azetidinone having the formula ##STR32## In formula II, and throughout the specification, the symbol "R.sub.4 " refers to an amino protecting group. These groups are well known in the field of .beta.-lactam chemistry, and the particular group chosen is not critical. Benzyloxycarbonyl, trityl, and t-butoxycarbonyl are exemplary protecting groups. The reaction of a .beta.-lactam of formula II with an isocyanate having the formula
O.dbd.C.dbd.N--SO.sub.2 --Y III
wherein Y is a leaving group such as chlorine, yields the corresponding compound having the formula ##STR33## The reaction is preferably run in an inert organic solvent, e.g., ethyl acetate, tetrahydrofuran, dimethoxyethane, dichloromethane, acetonitrile or mixtures of these solvents. Displacement of the leaving group "Y" with the desired group "R" can be accomplished using the appropriate nucleophile having the formula
RH V
optionally in the presence of a base (e.g., triethylamine), and yields the corresponding compound having the formula ##STR34## Alternatively, the displacement of the leaving group can be accomplished by reaction of a compound of formula IV with a protected form of a compound of formula V. Following the displacement reaction, the protecting groups can be removed using art-recognized techniques to yield a compound of formula VI.
Protected forms of a compound of formula V, and of all reactants described herein which contain a 3-hydroxy-4-pyridone moiety, include those compounds wherein the hydroxyl group is protected, those compounds wherein the hydroxyl group and the ring nitrogen are protected, and those compounds wherein both pyridone oxygens are protected. Exemplary protecting groups are silyl (e.g., trimethylsilyl), benzyl and acyl (e.g., acetyl). If silyl is used, later deprotection can be accomplished using hydrolysis or fluoride mediated cleavage. If benzyl is used, later deprotection can be accomplished by hydrogenolysis. If acyl is used, later deprotection can be accomplished by hydrolysis.
Deprotection of a compound of formula VI using conventional techniques yields the corresponding key intermediate having the formula ##STR35## or a salt thereof. The particular deprotection reaction used will, of course, depend on the protecting group ("R.sub.4 ") present. If, for example, R.sub.4 is a t-butoxycarbonyl protecting group, deprotection can be accomplished by treatment of a compound of formula VI with acid (e.g., formic acid or trifluoroacetic acid). If, for example, R.sub.4 is a benzyloxycarbonyl protecting group, deprotection can be accomplished by catalytic hydrogenation of a compound of formula VI. Alternatively, the R.sub.4 protecting group can be removed simultaneously with the other pyridone protecting groups immediately following the above-described displacement reaction.
Well known acylation techniques can be used to convert an intermediate of formula VII to a corresponding product of formula I. Exemplary techniques include reaction of a compound of formula VII with a carboxylic acid (R.sub.1 --OH), or corresponding carboxylic acid halide or carboxylic acid anhydride. The reaction with a carboxylic acid proceeds most readily in the presence of a carbodiimide such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and a substance capable of forming an active ester in situ such as N-hydroxybenzotriazole. In those instances where the acyl group (R.sub.1) contains reactive functionality (such as amino or carboxyl groups) it may be necessary to first protect those functional groups, then carry out the acylation reaction, and finally deprotect the resulting product.
An alternative procedure for preparing the compounds of formula I comprises first acylating (acylation techniques have been described above) a 3-amino-2-azetidinone having the formula ##STR36## to yield an intermediate having the formula ##STR37## A ##STR38## activating group can be introduced in the 1-position of a compound of formula IX (using the procedures described above) to obtain the corresponding product of formula I. In those instances wherein the acyl side-chain "R.sub.1 " contains reactive functionality (such as amino groups), it may be necessary to first protect those functional groups, then carry out the addition of the activating group in the 1-position, and finally deprotect the resulting product.
Still another synthesis for the preparation of compounds of formula I comprises the use of a 3-azido-2-azetidinone having the formula ##STR39## A ##STR40## activating group can be introduced in the 1-position of a compound of formula X (using the procedures described above) to obtain the corresponding compound having the formula ##STR41##
Reduction of an intermediate of formula XI yields the corresponding intermediate having the formula ##STR42## The reduction can be accomplished by catalytic (e.g., palladium on charcoal or platinum oxide) hydrogenation or with reducing agents such as zinc or triphenylphosphine. As described above, from these key intermediates (compounds of formula VII), using conventional acylation techniques, it is possible to prepare the products of formula I.
Alternatively, a 3-azido-2-azetidinone of formula X can be reduced to the corresponding 3-amino-2-azetidinone having the formula ##STR43## The reduction can be accomplished by catalytic (e.g., palladium on charcoal or platinum oxide) hydrogenation or with reducing agents such as zinc or triphenylphosphine. A 3-amino-2-azetidinone of formula VIII can be reacted as described above (i.e., first acylated and then treated as described above to introduce a ##STR44## activating group in the 1-position) to yield the products of formula I.
Still another synthesis for preparing the compounds of formula I wherein R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are each hydrogen utilizes a 6-acylaminopenicillanic acid having the formula ##STR45## or a salt thereof, as the starting material. By adapting procedures described in the literature, 3-acylamino-2-azetidinone can be obtained from the corresponding 6-acylaminopenicillanic acid of formula XII: see, for example, Chem. Soc. Special Publication No. 28, pg. 228 (1977), The Chemistry of Penicillins, Princeton University Press, pg. 257, and Synthesis, 494 (1977).
As described in the literature 6-acylaminopenicillanic acid, or a salt thereof, can be desulfurized to yield a compound having the formula ##STR46## by reduction using Raney nickel. The reaction can be run in water under reflux conditions.
Replacement of the carboxyl group of a compound of formula XIII with an acetate group followed by hydrolysis yields the corresponding 3-acylamino-2-azetidinone having the formula ##STR47## Treatment of a compound of formula XIII with cupric acetate and lead tetraacetate in an organic solvent (e.g., acetonitrile) replaces the carboxyl group with an acetate group. Hydrolysis of the resulting compound can be accomplished using potassium carbonate in the presence of sodium borohydride.
A ##STR48## activating group can be introduced in the 1-position of a compound of formula XIV (yielding products of formula I wherein R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are each hydrogen) using the procedures described above.
Still another variation of the above-described synthetic routes for preparing a compound of formula I wherein R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are each hydrogen comprises first desulfurizing 6-aminopenicillanic acid, acylating the resulting compound to yield a compound of formula XIII and then proceeding as described above to obtain first a 3-acylamino-2-azetidinone of formula XIV and then a product of formula I.
The azetidinones of formula I can also be prepared from amino acids having the formula ##STR49## The amino group is first protected (with a protecting group "R.sub.4 ", e.g., t-butoxycarbonyl). The carboxyl group of the protected amino acid is then reacted with an amine having the formula
Z--O--NH.sub.2, XVI
wherein Z is alkyl, benzyl or triphenylmethyl, in the presence of a carbodiimide to yield a compound having the formula ##STR50## The hydroxyl group of a compound of formula XVII is converted to a leaving group ("OL) with a reagent, such as methanesulfonyl chloride or pyridine-SO.sub.3 complex.
The fully protected compound having the formula ##STR51## is cyclized by treatment with base, e.g., potassium carbonate. The reaction is preferably carried out in an organic solvent or an organic solvent/water mixture under reflux conditions, and yields a compound having the formula ##STR52##
Alternatively, cyclization of a compound of formula XVII can be accomplished without first converting the hydroxyl group to a leaving group. Treatment of a compound of formula XVII with triphenylphosphine and diethylazodicarboxylate, yields a compound of formula XIX.
Exemplary procedures for the conversion of a compound of formula XVIII to a compound of formula XIX are described in J. Amer. Chem. Soc., 102, 7026 (1980) and J. Org. Chem., 47, 5160 (1982).
Both of the methods disclosed above for ring closure of a compound of formula XVII result in the inversion of the stereochemistry at the carbon atom bearing the R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 substituents when R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are not the same.
Removal of the protecting group from the 1-position of an azetidinone of formula XIX can be accomplished via sodium reduction when Z is alkyl, and yields an intermediate having the formula ##STR53## (at least one of R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 is hydrogen). If Z is benzyl, catalytic (e.g., palladium on charcoal) hydrogenation will initially yield the corresponding N-hydroxy compound, which upon treatment with titanium trichloride yields an intermediate of formula II. If Z is triphenylmethyl, formic acid or 70% acetic acid/water will initially yield the corresponding N-hydroxy compound.
A ##STR54## activating group can be introduced in the 1-position of a compound of formula II using the procedures described above, and the resulting compound can be deprotected and acylated.
The nucleophiles of formula V wherein R is ##STR55## A.sub.1 is --NH-- and A.sub.2 is ##STR56## can be prepared by reacting a nitroaniline compound having the formula ##STR57## with an activated, suitably protected derivative of a carboxylic acid having the formula ##STR58## wherein r is 0 or 1, to yield, upon deprotection and reduction, the corresponding compound having the formula ##STR59##
