2-phenanthridonyl carbapenem intermediates

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to antibacterial agents of the carbapenem class, in which the 2-position sidechain is characterized by a phenanthridonyl moiety, substituted by various neutral substituents, as described in more detail further below.
Thienamycin was an early carbapenem antibacterial agent having a broad spectrum; it has the following formula: ##STR2## Later, N-formimidoyl thienamycin was discovered; it has the formula: ##STR3##
The 2-phenanthridonyl-carbapenems of the present invention are not characterized by a broad antibacterial spectrum such as that of thienamycin or N-formimidoyl thienamycin. Rather, their spectrum of activity is largely limited to gram positive microorganisms, especially methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), methicillin resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis (MRSE), and methicillin resistant coagulase negative Staphylococci (MRCNS). The antibacterial compounds of the present invention thus comprise an important contribution to therapy of these difficult to control pathogens. Moreover, there is an increasing need for agents effective against such pathogens (MRSA/MRCNS) which are at the same time safe, i.e., free from undesirable toxic side effects. No .beta.-lactam antibacterial has yet been found which meets these requirements. And, the current agent of choice, vancomycin, a glycopeptide antibacterial, is experiencing an ever increasing amount of resistance in the MRSA/MRCNS pathogens.
More recently, carbapenem antibacterial agents have been described which have a 2-substituent which is an aryl moiety optionally substituted by, e.g., aminomethyl and substituted aminomethyl. These agents are described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,543,257 and 4,260,627 and have the formula: ##STR4##
However, there is no description or suggestion of a phenanthridonyl 2-substituent such as characterizes the compounds of the present invention, nor is there any suggestion of the suprisingly better anti-MRSA/MRCNS activity of the compounds of the present invention.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,978,659 describes a particular class of compounds of the formula: ##STR5## but this limited teaching in no way suggests the totally different compounds of the present invention, nor their surprisingly better anti-MRSA/MRCNS activity.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The manufacture of compounds of Formula I may be carried out in a three-stage synthesis scheme followed by a final step which allows for the removal of any protecting groups. The objective of the first synthetic stage is to produce a base phenanthridonyl compound which may be converted to the two-position substituent of the carbapenem of Formula I. The objective of the second synthetic stage is to attach the base phenanthridonyl to the carbapenem. Finally, the objective of the third synthetic stage is to substitute the phenanthridonyl with the desired R.sup.a and R.sup.b. This third synthetic stage may be performed after the first synthetic stage or during or after the second synthetic stage according to the nature of the various R.sup.a and R.sup.b.
Flow Sheets A1 and A2 demonstrate a suggested first stage synthesis. Flow Sheets B and C demonstrate two alternative second stage syntheses. The third synthesis varies according to the selected R.sup.a and R.sup.b.
The suggested first synthesis herein, Flow Sheets A1 and A2, can be generally described as a directed ortho metalation reaction to prepare starting materials required for a Suzuki cross-coupling reaction and finally ring closure to produce the desired phenanthridone platform. This suggested first synthesis is utilized to produce similar phenanthridone compounds by Snieckus, V., Chem. Rev. 1990, 90, 879-933; Fu. J. M. and Snieckus, V., Tet. Lett. 1990, 31, p. 1665; Siddiqui, M. A., et al., Tetrahedron Letters, Vol. 29, No. 43, 5463-5466 (1988); Mills, R. J., et al., J. Org. Chem., 1989, 54, 4372-4385; Mills, R. J., J. Org. Chem., 1989, 54, 4386-4390; Fu, J. M., et al., Tetrahedron Letters, Vol. 31, No. 12, pp 1665-1668 (1990); and Suzuki, A., et al., N., Synthetic Communications, 11(7), 513-519 (1981).
Referring to Flow Sheet A1 compound A1-1 is substituted with a directed metalation group (DMG) by methods according to Snieckus, et al., above. The function of the directed metalation group (DMG) is to orchestrate adornment of the aromatic ring. It is highly desirable of the DMG that it also provide a precursor substituent for the necessary carboxy function or amino function forming the amide linkage of the object phenanthridone. Suitable DMG to serve as a carboxyl precursor are secondary and tertiary amides and oxazolino groups. Specifically, these precursors may be, for example, --CONEt.sub.2, --CONHMe, 4,4-dimethyl-2-oxazolinyl, and the like. In the instance of compound A1-1, DMG is of the carboxyl precursor type. Suitable DMG to serve as an amino precursor are protected primary and secondary amines. Specifically, these precursors may be --NH-t-Boc, --NH-pivaloyl, phenylsulfonamido, and the like. Compound A2-1 as described below is by way of example, of the amino precursor type.
As the first step of flow Sheet A1, the bromine of compound A1-1 is protected through silylation via halogen metal exchange in the presence of TMS chloride at between about -100.degree. to -50.degree. C. to produce aryl silane A1-2. Incorporation of an ortho substituent R.sup.a or its appropriate precursor may be made on compound A1-2 in accordance with standard directed metalation procedures described by Snieckus, et al., above. The resultant substituted aryl silane A1-3 is iteratively ortho metalated and treated with an appropriate boron containing electrophile to obtain the requisite aryl boronic acid A1-4. Suitable boron containing electrophiles include lower alkyl borates, such as trimethyl borate and tri-i-propyl borate. Alternatively, and not shown in the Flow Sheets, the ortho metalated compound may be treated with electrophiles such as trialkyltin halides providing the corresponding aryl stannanes which in turn are also useful intermediates in the production of biphenyls as reported by Stille, et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1987, Vol. 109, page 5478-5486. Preparation of biphenyl intermediate A1-6 is accomplished in the Flow Sheets utilizing the Suzuki cross-coupling procedure and the appropriately adorned aryl compounds A1-4 and A1-5. The Suzuki coupling can be generally described as the reaction of an aryl boronic acid with an aryl halide or halide equivalent employing tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) palladium(0) catalyst in the presence of an aqueous solution of sodium carbonate in the solvents toluene/ethanol. The resulting biphenyl compound is isolated by standard methods. Compound A1-5 may itself be produced by standard methods to obtain the halogen substitution, X, the amino moiety --NR'.sub.2 and the desired substituents R.sup.a or their precursors. The preferred halogen X is bromine, iodine or the halogen equivalent trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy. The preferred amino moiety, --NR'.sub.2, may be any of --NO.sub.2, --N.sub.3, protected amine or amine, substituted with R.sup.b or its precursor. Biphenyl compound A1-6 is subsequently transformed into the halogenated biphenyl A1-7 via ipso substitution of the trimethylsilyl moiety in methylene chloride or other appropriate solvent employing iodine monochloride. Any number of halogenating reagents are suitable such IBr, NBS, I.sub.2, Br.sub.2, etc., which must be compatible with the already existing functionalities. Finally, the object compound, B1-1, is obtained via transamidization of the amino moiety with the latent carboxy precursor in the form of DMG.
Referring to Flow Sheet A2, the regioisomeric phenanthridone B1-2, may be produced in a manner analogous to that of phenanthridone B1-1. Compound A2-1 is dissimilar to compound A1-4 in that DMG of compound A2-1 is of the amino precursor type. Compound A2-1 is reacted with the appropriately adorned compound A2-2 to prepare biphenyl intermediate A2-3 utilizing the Suzuki cross-coupling procedure. As above biphenyl compound A2-3 is transformed into halogenated biphenyl via ipso substitution A2-4 and finally into object phenanthridone B1-2 via transamidization.
Presented with Flow Sheet A1 and A2, the skilled artisan will appreciate certain modification as possibly beneficial. In one modification, the ipso substitution of silicon to halogen might be performed after cyclization to form the object phenanthridone. In another modification, compounds A1-5 and A2-2 may be adorned utilizing a DMG substitutent replacing --NR'.sub.2 and --CO.sub.2 Me respectively. As above, the DMG substituent directs adornment of R.sup.a or precursors thereof in manufacture. As above, the DMG should be of the carboxyl precursor type or amino precursor type as appropriate. In yet another modification, the oxocarbonyl of intermediate B1-1 or B1-2 can be converted to a thiocarbonyl to produce X.sup.h as S, using Lawesson type reagents or by treating with phosphorus pentasulfide in an appropriate solvent. Another modification to produce X.sup.h as S is to employ a carbon based DMG wherein the oxocarbonyl moiety is replaced by thiocarbonyl. A suitable carbon based DMG containing thiocarbonyl is --(C.dbd.S)NH-phenyl. Although compounds in which X.sup.h is S are suitable, those in which X.sup.h is O are preferred.
Although the foregoing method to produce phenanthridones B1-1 or B1-2 is preferred herein, there are of course other appropriate methods. In one method, phenanthridone, produced by procedures known in the art, is brominated at the 2-position as taught by Mosby, W. L., J. Chem. Soc., Vol. 76, pp 936 (1954). The 2-bromo-phenanthridone may also be obtained by the procedure of Walls, L. P., J. Chem. Soc., pp. 1406 (1935). Preparation of N-substituted, 2-bromo-phenanthridones may be prepared as taught by Cookson, R. F., et al., J. Heterocycl. Chem., (1979) 9, 475. Substituted phenanthridones are prepared by Beckmann rearrangement of substituted 9-oxofluorene oximes by the method of Pan, H. -L., and Fletcher, T.L., J. Med. Chem., Vol. 12, pp. 822 (1969). Substituted phenanthridones are prepared by a Schmidt rearrangement of substituted 9-oxofluorene by the method of Pan, H. -L., and Fletcher, T.L., J. Heterocycl. Chem., Vol. 7, pp 313 (1970). Substituted phenanthridones are discussed generally by Keene, B.R.T. and Tissington, P., Adv. Heterocyclic Chem., Vol. 13, pp 315 (1971). ##STR9##
The object compound of Flows Sheet A1 and A2, phenanthridone B1-1 and B1-2, forms the nucleus of the 2-position substitution of the carbapenem compounds taught herein. As such it is shown to be R.sup.a and R.sup.b substituted. However, it is immediately clear to those skilled in the art that certain R.sup.a and R.sup.b listed above, if substituted on compounds A1-1, A1-5, A2-1 or A2-2 would not survive or permit the synthesis to compounds B1-1 or B1-2. Thus, where a certain R.sup.a or R.sup.b is desired on compound B1-1 or B1-2 and this R.sup.a or R.sup.b is not compatible with the synthesis scheme to produce, B1-1 or B1-2 then a compatible precursor substituent may be employed through the synthesis.
The identity of the precursor substituent employed is not crucial so long as it does not interfere with the synthesis to B1-1 or B1-2 and so long as it may be thereafter converted to more desireable substituent. Preferred precursor substituents for R.sup.a are methyl, hydroxymethyl and protected hydroxymethyl. Preferred precursor substituents for R.sup.b are 2-hydroxyethyl or protected 2-hydroxethyl.
Thus, as to the R.sup.a substituent on compound B1-1 or B1-2, it maybe an R.sup.a with or without protecting groups stable to the conditions of producing compound B1-1 or B1-2, and stable to the conditions of subsequently adding B1-1 or B1-2, to the carbapenem. Alternatively, it may be a stable precursor substituent which is stable to the conditions of making B1-1 or B1-2, which is optionally stable to the conditions of adding B1-1 or B1-2, to the carbapenem and which is convertible to a desired R.sup.a or to another precursor substituent.
As stated above, the second stage synthesis is to attach the base phenanthridone B1-1 or B1-2 to the 2-position of the carbapenem. With stable R.sup.a and R.sup.b or suitable precursor substituents therefor, phenanthridone B1-1 or B1-2 may be added to azetidin-2-one B2 in a Grignard reaction as shown in Flow Sheet B. The Grignard reaction requires that B1-1, for example, be converted to a Grignard reagent by reaction with magnesium and 1,2-dibromoethane in THF from 20.degree. C. to 60.degree. C. and subsequently contacting B1-1 as a Grignard reagent with B2 in THF at from -70.degree. C. to about 20.degree. C. to produce azetidin-2-one B3. Alternatively, B1-1 may be reacted with t-butyl-lithium, n-butyllithium, or the like in THF at from -78.degree. to -50.degree. C. followed by the addition of magnesium bromide to produce the same Grignard reagent. R.sup.1 of B3 is in practice pyrid-2-yl but may clearly be a variety of substituents including aromatic and heteroaromatic substituents. Further R.sup.i might be for example phenyl, 2-pyrimidinyl or 2-thiazolyl.
Azetidin-2-one B3 is an intermediate that may be ring closed to a carbapenem. It is on this intermediate that R.sup.a , R.sup.b or precursor substituents may be modified where such modification is incompatible with the carbapenem nucleus.
Compound B3 may be ring closed to carbapenem B4 by refluxing in xylene with a trace of p-hydroquinone for about 1 to 2 hours in an inert atmosphere. It is on this intermediate that final elaboration of R.sup.a from a precursor substituent, e.g. hydroxymethyl, may be accomplished. Removal of the carboxyl and hydroxyl protecting groups then provides the final compound of Formula I. Such final elaboration and deprotection is described in further detail below. ##STR10##
Flow Sheet C shows an alternative preferred second stage synthesis, i.e. attachment of the base phenanthridone such as B1-1 to the 2-position of the carbapenem. This synthesis involves a palladium catalyzed cross-coupling reaction between a carbapenem triflate and a suitably substituted arylstannane, a process which is described in U.S. Pat. application Ser. No. 485,096 filed Feb. 26, 1990, hereby incorporated by reference. In order to apply this synthesis, it is first necessary to modify phenanthridone B1-1 to the trimethylstannylphenanthridone C3. This is accomplished by reacting B1-1 with t-butyllithium in THF at from -78.degree. to -50.degree. C. followed by the addition of trimethyltin chloride. Alternatively, phenanthridone B1-1 may be reacted with hexamethylditin in the presence of a palladium(0) catalyst such as tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium in an inert solvent such as toluene at from 25.degree. to 110.degree. C. for from 0.25-24 hours to provide the same stannane C3. Referring to Flow Sheet C, the 2-oxocarbapenam C 1 is reacted with a suitable trifluoromethanesulfonyl source, such as trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride, trifluoromethanesulfonyl chloride and the like, in the presence of an organic nitrogen base, such as triethylamine, diisopropylamine and the like, in polar aprotic solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran or methylene chloride. Optionally, an organic nitrogen base, such as triethylamine and the like, is then added to the reaction solution followed immediately by a silylating agent, such as trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate to provide intermediate C2. An aprotic polar coordinating solvent, such as DMF, 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone and the like, is added. This is followed by the addition of a palladium compound, such as tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium-chloroform, palladium acetate and the like, optionally, a suitably substituted phenylphosphine, such as tris(4-methoxyphenyl)phosphine, tris(2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl)phosphine and the like, and the stannane C3. A halide, source such as lithium chloride, zinc chloride or ammonium chlorides and the like, is added and the reaction solution is allowed to warm and is stirred at a suitable temperature, such as 0.degree. to 50.degree. C. for from a few minutes to 48 hours. The carbapenem C4 is obtained by conventional isolation/purification methodology known in the art.
Generally speaking, the milder conditions of the synthesis shown in Flow Sheet C allow for a wider range of functional groups R.sup.a or R.sup.b to be present than the synthesis illustrated in Flow Sheet B. However, in certain cases it is advantageous for the R.sup.a or R.sup.b substituent(s) of the stannane C3 to be introduced in a protected or precursory form. Final elaboration of R.sup.a or R.sup.b from a precursor substituent, e.g. hydroxymethyl, may be accomplished on carbapenem intermediate C4. Removal of hydroxyl and carboxyl protecting groups then provides the final compound of Formula I. Such final elaboration and deprotection is described in further detail below. ##STR11##
Azetidin-2-one B2, a pyridyl-thioester, is a well known compound in the production of carbapenems. Diverse synthetic schemes useful to make B2 may be imagined by the skilled artisan. Particularly useful to the instant invention is a synthetic scheme set out further in Flow Sheet D below in which the symbol R is as defined above. The steps for preparing intermediate B2 are analogous to the procedures described, for example, in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,260,627 and 4,543,257; L. D. Cama et al. Tetrahedron, 39, 2531 (1983); R. N.

Salzmann et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 102, 6161 (1980), and L. M. Fuentes, I. Shinkai, and T. N. Salzmann, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 108, 4675 (1986). The syntheses are also disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,269,772, U.S. Pat. No. 4,350,631, U.S. Pat. No. 4,383,946 and U.S. Pat. No. 4,414,155 all assigned to Merck and Company, Inc. and hereby incorporated by reference.
The general synthesis description depicted above in the Flow Sheets shows a protected 1-hydroxyethyl substitution on the 6-position of the carbapenem. After final deprotection, a 1-hydroxyethyl substituent is obtained, which is preferred in most cases. However, it has been been found that with certain 2-side-chain selections, the ultimate balance of favorable properties in the overall molecule may be enhanced by selection of the 6-(1-fluoroethyl) moiety instead. Preparation of 6-fluoroalkyl compounds within the scope of the present invention is carried out in a straightforward manner using techniques well known in the art of preparing carbapenem antibacterial compounds. See, e.g., J. G. deVries et al., Heterocycles, 23 (8), 1915 (1985); BE 900 718 A (Sandoz) and Japanese Patent Pub. No. 6-0163-882-A (Sanruku Ocean).
In preferred compounds of Formula I, R.sup.1 is hydrogen. More preferably, R.sup.1 is hydrogen and R.sup.2 is (R)--CH.sub.3 CH(OH)-- or (R)--CH.sub.3 CH(F)--. In the most preferred case, R.sup.1 is hydrogen and R.sup.2 is (R)--CH.sub.3 CH(OH)--. While R=H is usually preferred, there are instances in which R=CH.sub.3 may provide improved chemical stability, water solubility, or pharmacokinetic behavior. The substituent R=CH.sub.3 may be of either configuration, i.e., the .alpha. or .beta.-stereoisomer. Additionally, in preferred compounds, at least R.sup.a in the 3- or 7-position of the phenanthridone is other than hydrogen. In the most preferred compounds, in total, two R.sup.a and R.sup.b substituents is other than hydrogen.
Suitable R.sup.a and R.sup.b are described above in the text associated with Formula I. Among preferred R.sup.a are C.sub.1-4 alkyl mono-substituted with hydroxy, such as, hydroxymethyl; formyl; alkoxycarbonyl, such as, --COOCH.sub.3 ; carbamoyl, such as, --CONH.sub.2 ; hydroxoximinomethyl, such as, --CH.dbd.NOH or cyano. Among preferred R.sup.b are hydroxymethyl, hydroxyethyl, --CH.sub.2 CHO, --CH.sub.2 COOCH.sub.3, --CH.sub.2 CONH.sub.2, --CH.sub.2 CH.dbd.NOH and --CH.sub.2 CN.
In regard to this preferred substitution, a hydroxyethyl group may be obtained for R.sup.b of the phenanthridone as shown in Flow Sheets A1 and A2. In Flow Sheet A1, for instance, compound A1-5 may be substituted with --NH(CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 OH) or its appropriately protected equivalent where an appropriate protecting group is for example t-butyldiphenylsilyl. Alternatively, for instance, in Flow Sheet A2, the DMG group might be --NH(.sup.t BOC) which is removed under acid conditions from compound A2-4 which subsequently cyclizes to compound B1-2 where R.sup.b is hydrogen. The nitrogen moiety of compound B1-2 may be alkylated using sodium hydride in appropriate solvent with 2-bromo-t-butyldiphenylsilylethanol to obtain R.sup.b as protected hydroxyethyl. A hydroxymethyl may be obtained in any of positions 7, 1, 2, 3 or 4 for R.sup.a as follows. As one method, hydroxymethyl may be substituted on any of rings A1-4 and A1-5 or A2-1 and A2-2 by standard procedures and appropriately protected. Alternatively, methyl, as a precursor substituent, is substituted on starting materials A1-4 and A1-5 or A2-1 and A2-2 in the appropriate positions by well know means and the starting materials reacted to a corresponding methyl-substituted B1-1 or B1-2 according the Flow Sheet A. Subsequently, the methyl substituent(s) of methyl-substituted B1-1 or B1-2 may be oxidized to bromomethyl with N-bromosuccinimide. This oxidation of the precursor substituent, methyl, is advantageously performed prior to substituting the phenanthridone on the azetidin-2-one as the oxidizing conditions are incompatible with either the azetidin-2-one or the subsequent carbapenem. In the case of the bromomethyl substituent, conversion to an hydroxymethyl substituted B1-1 or B1-2 may be accomplished by a three-step sequence. Reaction of the bromomethyl compound with potassium acetate in DMF at 80.degree. C. gives the corresponding acetoxymethyl compound. Removal of the acetate group, e.g. by hydrolysis with methanolic sodium hydroxide or by reduction with diisobutylaluminium hydride in THF, gives the hydroxymethyl substituted compound B1-1 or B1-2. Further elaboration of of hydroxymethyl substituted B1-1 or B1-2 according to Flow Sheet B produces a corresponding B3 and B4.
The preferred formyl substitution on the phenanthridone may be obtained on B4 from the hydroxymethyl substitution, in the case of R.sup.a, or hydroxymethyl substitution in the case of R.sup.b, by a Swern oxidation. For example, B4 is oxidized in methylene chloride at from -70.degree. C. to room temperature employing oxalyl chloride-dimethyl sulfoxide followed by triethylamine as the active agent. Obviously, the position of the resultant formyl substitution will depend upon the position of the hydroxymethyl or hydroxyethyl substitution B4.
The preferred --CH.dbd.NOH substitution on the phenanthridone may be conveniently obtained from the formyl substitution just described. This is accomplished simply by exposing the formyl substituted compound to hydroxylamine in an appropriate solvent at room temperature.
The preferred cyano substitution on the phenanthridone may be obtained from the --CH.dbd.NOH substitution just described. The --CH.dbd.NOH substituted compound is dehydrated with triflic anhydride and triethylamine in a solvent at -70.degree. C.
The preferred --COOCH.sub.3 substitution on the phenanthridone may be obtained from the hydroxymethyl or hydroxyethyl substituted B3 described above. For example, compound B3 is oxidized with Jones reagent to convert the hydroxymethyl substituent to the carboxylic acid group. The oxidation with Jones reagent may be incompatible with the carbapenem and thus is optimally performed before ring closure. Prior to ring closure, the carboxylic acid group is esterified by sequentially contacting with 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride, 1-hydroxybenzotriazole, and methanol in an organic solvent at room temperature. Substituted esters may of course be obtained by replacing methanol with the corresponding substituted alcohol. Alternatively, a methyl substituted B1-1 or B1-2, as described above, may be oxidized with chromium trioxide or .sup.n Bu.sub.4 NMnO.sub.4 to form carboxy.
The preferred carbamoyl substitution on the phenanthridone, may be obtained from B3 by oxidizing the hydroxymethyl or hydroxyethyl group with Jones reagent to the corresponding carboxylic acid group as described above. This carboxylic acid substituent is converted to the carboxamide group, --CONH.sub.2, by sequentially contacting with 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride, 1-hydroxybenzotriazole, and ammonia in an organic solvent at room temperature. Substituted amides may of course be obtained by replacing ammonia with the corresponding substituted amine.
Compounds substituted with the preferred R.sup.a or R.sup.b just described may also be obtained by employing the synthesis shown in Flow Sheet C. In this case, the synthetic transformations just described may be carried-out on intermediate C3 prior to attachment of the phenanthridone side chain to the carbapenem or on C4 after such attachment.
In the preparation methods described above, the carboxyl group at the 3-position and the hydroxyl group at the 8-position of the carbapenem remain blocked by protecting groups until the penultimate product is prepared. Suitable hydroxyl protecting groups, P', are silyl groups such as trialkylsilyl, aryl(alkyl)alkoxysilyl, alkoxydiarylsilyl and diarylalkylsilyl and carbonate groups such as alkyloxycarbonyl, substituted alkyloxycarbonyl, benzyloxycarbonyl, substituted benzyloxycarbonyl, allyloxycarbonyl and substituted allyloxycarbonyl. The preferred protecting groups, in addition to or including those shown in the schemes, are t-butylmethoxyphenylsilyl, t-butoxydiphenylsilyl, trimethylsilyl, triethylsilyl, t-butyldimethylsilyl, o-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl, p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl, benzyloxycarbonyl, t-butyloxycarbonyl, 2,2,2-trichloroethyloxycarbonyl and allyloxycarbonyl. Suitable carboxyl protecting groups, M, in addition to or including those shown in the schemes are described herein below.
Deblocking may be carried out in a conventional manner. For compounds prepared according to Flow Sheet B, deprotection may be carried out in a palladium catalyzed rection in a solution containing potassium 2-ethylhexanoate and 2-ethylhexanoic acid or, alternatively, another suitable nucleophile such as pyrrolidine. Alternatively, for those prepared via Flow Sheet C, deprotection is conducted sequentially. Thus, compound C4 is exposed initially to aqueous acidic conditions, acetic acid or dilute HCl or the like, in an organic solvent such as tetrahydrofuran at 0.degree. C. to ambient temperature for from a few minutes to several hours. The resulting desilylated carbapenem may be isolated by conventional techniques, but is more conveniently taken into the final deprotection process. Thus, addition of an inorganic base such as NaHCO.sub.3 or KHCO.sub.3 and 10% Pd/C followed by hydrogenation provides for the removal of the p-nitrobenzyl protecting group and the formation of the final compound of Formula I.
With reference to the above definitions, "alkyl" means a straight or branched chain aliphatic hydrocarbon radical.
The term "heteroatom" means N, S, or O, selected on an independent basis.
The term "heteroaryl" has been defined herein, in relation to the R.sup.x group, to have a specific and limited meaning, being only monocyclic. It is required that the monocyclic heteroaryl have at least one nitrogen atom, and optionally at most only one additional oxygen or sulfur heteroatom may be present. Heteroaryls of this type are pyrrole and pyridine (1 N); and oxazole, thiazole or oxazine (1 N +1 O or 1 S). While additional nitrogen atoms may be present together with the first nitrogen and oxygen or sulfur, giving, e.g., a thiadiazole (2N's+1S), the preferred heteroaryls are those where only nitrogen heteroatoms are present when there is more than one. Typical of these are pyrazole, imidazole, pyrimidine and pyrazine (2 N's) and triazine (3 N's).
The heteroaryl group of R.sup.x is always optionally mono-substituted by R.sup.q, defined above, and substitution can be on one of the carbon atoms or one of the heteroatoms, although in the latter case certain substituent choices may not be appropriate.

The carbapenem compounds of the present invention are useful per se and in their pharmaceutically acceptable salt and ester forms in the treatment of bacterial infections in animal and human subjects. The term "pharmaceutically acceptable ester or salt" refers to those salt and ester forms of the compounds of the present invention which would be apparent to the pharmaceutical chemist, i.e., those which are non-toxic and which would favorably affect the pharmacokinetic properties of said compounds, their palatability, absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion. Other factors, more practical in nature, which are also important in the selection, are cost of the raw materials, ease of crystallization, yield, stability, hygroscopicity, and flowability of the resulting bulk drug. Conveniently, pharmaceutical compositions may be prepared from the active ingredients in combination with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. Thus, the present invention is also concerned with pharmaceutical compositions and methods of treating bacterial infections utilizing as an active ingredient the novel carbapenem compounds of the present invention.
The pharmaceutically acceptable salts referred to above may take the form --COOM. The M may be an alkali metal cation such as sodium or potassium. Other pharmaceutically acceptable cations for M may be calcium, magnesium, zinc, ammonium, or alkylammonium cations such as tetramethylammonium, tetrabutylammonium, choline, triethylhydroammonium, meglumine, triethanolhydroammonium, etc.
The pharmaceutical acceptable esters of the novel carbapenem compounds of the present invention are such as would be readily apparent to a medicinal chemist, and include, for example, those described in detail in U.S. Pat. No. 4,309,438, Column 9, line 61 to Column 12, line 51, which is incorporated herein by reference. Included within such pharmaceutically acceptable esters are those which are hydrolyzed under physiological conditions, such as pivaloyloxymethyl, acetoxymethyl, phthalidyl, indanyl and methoxymethyl, and those described in detail in U.S. Pat. No. 4,479,947, which is incorporated herein by reference.
The novel carbapenem compounds of the present invention may take the form COOM, where M is a readily removable carboxyl protecting group. Such conventional blocking groups consist of known ester groups which are used to protectively block the carboxyl group during the synthesis procedures described above. These conventional blocking groups are readily removable, i.e., they can be removed, if desired, by procedures which will not cause cleavage or other disruption of the remaining portions of the molecule. Such procedures include chemical and enzymatic hydrolysis, treatment with chemical reducing or oxidizing agents under mild conditions, treatment with a transition metal catalyst and a nucleophile, and catalytic hydrogenation. Broadly, such ester protecting groups include alkyl, substituted alkyl, benzyl, substituted benzyl, aryl, substituted aryl, allyl, substituted allyl and triorganosilyl. Examples of specific such ester protecting groups include benzhydryl, p-nitrobenzyl, 2-naphthylmethyl, allyl, 2-chloroallyl, benzyl, t-butyl, 2,2,2-trichloroethyl, t-butyldimethylsilyl, t-butyldiphenylsilyl, trimethylsilyl, 2-(trimethyl)silylethyl, phenacyl, p-methoxybenzyl, acetonyl, o-nitrobenzyl, p-methoxyphenyl and 4-pyridylmethyl.
The compounds of the present invention are valuable antibacterial agents active against various Gram-positive and to a lesser extent Gram-negative bacteria and accordingly find utility in human and veterinary medicine. The antibacterials of the invention are not limited to utility as medicaments; they may be used in all manner of industry, for example: additives to animal feed, preservation of food, disinfectants, and in other industrial systems where control of bacterial growth is desired. For example, they may be employed in aqueous compositions in concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 100 parts of antibiotic per million parts of solution in order to destroy or inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria on medical and dental equipment and as bactericides in industrial applications, for example in water based paints and in the white water of paper mills to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria.
The compounds of this invention may be used in any of a variety of pharmaceutical preparations. They may be employed in capsule, powder form, in liquid solution, or in suspension. They may be administered by a variety of means; those of principal interest include: topically or parenterally by injection (intravenously or intramuscularly).
Compositions for injection, a preferred route of delivery, may be prepared in unit dosage form in ampules, or in multidose containers. The compositions may take such forms as suspensions, solutions, or emulsions in oily or aqueous vehicles, and may contain formulatory agents. Alternatively, the active ingredient may be in powder form for reconstitution, at the time of delivery, with a suitable vehicle, such as sterile water. Topical applications may be formulated in hydrophobic or hydrophilic bases as ointments, creams, lotions, paints, or powders.
The dosage to be administered depends to a large extent upon the condition and size of the subject being treated as well as the route and frequency of administration, the parenteral route by injection being preferred for generalized infections. Such matters, however, are left to the routine discretion of the therapist according to principles of treatment well known in the antibacterial art. Another factor influencing the precise dosage regimen, apart from the nature of the infection and peculiar identity of the individual being treated, is the molecular weight of the chosen species of this invention.
The compositions for human delivery per unit dosage, whether liquid or solid, may contain from 0.1% to 99% of active material, the preferred range being from about 10-60%. The composition will generally contain from about 15 mg to about 1500 mg of the active ingredient; however, in general, it is preferable to employ a dosage amount in the range of from about 250 mg to 1000 mg. In parenteral administration, the unit dosage is usually the pure compound I in sterile water solution or in the form of a soluble powder intended for solution.
The preferred method of administration of the Formula I antibacterial compounds is parenteral by i.v. infusion, i.v. bolus, or i.m. injection.
For adults, 5-50 mg of Formula I antibacterial compounds per kg of body weight given 2, 3, or 4 times per day is preferred. Preferred dosage is 250 mg to 1000 mg of the Formula I antibacterial given two (b.i.d.) three (t.i.d.) or four (q.i.d.) times per day. More specifically, for mild infections a dose of 250 mg t.i.d. or q.i.d. is recommended. For moderate infections against highly susceptible gram positive organisms a dose of 500 mg t.i.d. or q.i.d. is recommended. For severe, life-threatening infections against organisms at the upper limits of sensitivity to the antibiotic, a dose of 1000 mg t.i.d. or q.i.d. is recommended.
For children, a dose of 5-25 mg/kg of body weight given 2, 3, or 4 times per day is preferred; a dose of 10 mg/kg t.i.d. or q.i.d. is usually recommended.
Antibacterial compounds of Formula I are of the broad class known as carbapenems or 1-carbadethiapenems. Naturally occuring carbapenems are susceptible to attack by a renal enzyme known as dehydropeptidase (DHP). This attack or degradation may reduce the efficacy of the carbapenem antibacterial agent. The compounds of the present invention, on the other hand, are significantly less subject to such attack, and therefore may not require the use of a DHP inhibitor. However, such use is optional and contemplated to be part of the present invention. Inhibitors of DHP and their use with carbapenem antibacterial agents are disclosed in the prior art [see European Patent Applications No. 79102616.4 filed Jul. 24, 1979 (Patent No. 0 007 614); and No. 82107174.3, filed Aug. 9, 1982 (Publication No. 0 072 014)].
The compounds of the present invention may, where DHP inhibition is desired or necessary, be combined or used with the appropriate DHP inhibitor as described in the aforesaid patents and published application. Thus, to the extent that the cited European patent applications 1.) define the procedure for determining DHP susceptibility of the present carbapenems and 2.) disclose suitable inhibitors, combination compositions and methods of treatment, they are incorporated herein by reference. A preferred weight ratio of Formula I compound: DHP inhibitor in the combination compositions is about 1:1. A preferred DHP inhibitor is 7-(L-2-amino-2-carboxyethylthio)-2-(2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxamide)-2-heptenoic acid or a useful salt thereof.
The second phenanthridone ring of Formula I is not numbered in this text and claims as convention dictates. In the examples, conventional numbering of this ring is employed per the formula: ##STR17##

To a stirred solution of the bicyclic .beta.-keto ester 9 (158.3 mg, 0.45 mmol) in dry THF (2.3 mL) at -78.degree. C. under N.sub.2 was added diisopropylamine (70.0 .mu.L, 0.50 mmol, 1.1 eq). The resultant yellow mixture was stirred for 10 minutes before trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride (84.1 .mu.L, 0.50 mmol, 1.1 eq) was added. After 15 minutes triethylamine (69.7 .mu.L, 0.50 mmol, 1.1 eq), followed by the trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (96.6 .mu.L, 0.50 mmol, 1.1 eq), was added and the reaction mixture was stirred for 20 minutes.
The reaction mixture was then treated sequentially with anhydrous N-methylpyrrolidinone (2.3 mL), the Pd.sub.2 (dba).sub.3.CHCl.sub.3 catalyst (9.4 mg, 9.1.times.10.sup.-3 mmol, 2.0 mol %), the aryl stannane 61 (117.0 mg, 0.30 mmol, 0.66 eq), and zinc chloride (0.30 mL, 0.30 mmol, 0.66 eq). The low temperature bath was then removed and the reaction vessel was placed in a warm water bath to quickly reach ambient temperature. The solution was stirred for 30 minutes at ambient temperature.
The reaction was then poured into ether (150 mL) and washed with water (3.times.) and brine. The organic layer was dried (MgSO.sub.4), filtered and evaporated in vacuo. Purification using flash chromatography (60% EtOAc/hex) provided 88.6 mg (45.5%) of the coupled product 62, a yellow oil.
