DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to carbacephem and cephem compounds represented by the formula (I): ##STR7## (wherein X is S or CH.sub.2 ; n is an integer of 1 to 5; R.sub.1 is an unsubstituted or substituted heterocyclic group (where the heterocyclic group is a 5- or 6- membered heterocyclic group having 1 to 4 of O,S and N); R.sub.2 is a group represented by the formula: ##STR8## (wherein R.sub.4 is an unsubstituted or substituted phenyl or 2-aminothiazolyl), or a group represented by the formula: ##STR9## (wherein R.sub.5 is an unsubstituted or substituted lower alkyl group); R.sub.3 is hydrogen, an alkali metal, an alkaline earth metal, an organic ammonium group or an ester residue, and R.sub.1 may be a quaternary ammonium group, where --CO.sub.2 R.sub.3 represents --CO.sub.2 --] the compounds are hereinafter referred to as Compound (I), and compounds of other formula numbers are likewise referred to], and further to a pharmaceutical composition containing a Compound (I) as an active ingredient.
The compound (I) has a strong antibacterial activity on not only the Gram-negative bacteria, but also gram-positive bacteria.
In the definition of R.sub.1, the preferable heterocyclic group is a 5- or 6- membered monoheterocyclic group having only 1 to 4N heteroatoms and the largest number of non-cumulative double bonds, a 5- and 6- membered monoheterocyclic group having only one S or O heteroatom and the largest number of non-cumulative double bonds, or a 5- or 6- membered monoheterocyclic group having one S or O heteroatom and one or two N heteroatoms and the largest number of non-cumulative double bonds. More specifically, the preferable heterocyclic group includes, for example, pyridyl, tetrazolyl, thiazolyl, thiadiazolyl, oxazolyl, triazolyl, pyrimidyl, imidazolyl, triazinyl, etc. The substituent on the heterocyclic group includes straight or branched lower alkyls having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (methyl, ethyl, etc.), hydroxyl, amino, nitro, --(CH.sub.2).sub.m Y (where Y represents hydroxyl, carboxyl, carbamoyl, or sulfo, and m represents an integer of 1 to 5), etc.
When the substituent is a lower alkyl or --(CH.sub.2).sub.m Y' bonded to N on the heterocyclic group (where Y' is hydroxyl, carboxyl, or carbamoyl, and m has the same meaning as defined above), R.sub.1 can be a quaternary ammonium group. In that case, the counter ions can be exemplified by --CO.sub.2 .sup.- as ionized group of --CO.sub.2 R.sub.3, etc.
In the definition of R.sub.4, the substituent on the phenyl group includes straight or branched lower alkyls having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, hydroxyl, amino, nitro, carboxyl, etc. In the definition of R.sub.5, the lower alkyl includes straight or branched lower alkyls having 1 to 7 carbon atoms (methyl, ethyl, etc.) and the substituent includes hydroxyl, carboxyl, sulfo, etc.
In the definition of R.sub.3, the alkali metal includes sodium, potassium, etc., the alkaline earth metal includes calcium, magnesium, etc., and the organic ammonium group includes ammonium groups of organic amines such as basic amino acids. In the definition of R.sub.3, the ester residue represents groups that are relatively easily releasable in vivo, as represented by the formula: ##STR10## (where R.sub.6 is hydrogen or a lower alkyl having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and R.sub.7 is a lower alkyl having 1 to 6 carbon atoms or phenyl), or by the formula: ##STR11##
The process for preparing the compound (I) is described below:
The compound (I) where R.sub.3 is hydrogen [which is hereinafter referred to as compound (I-1)] can be prepared by subjecting a compound represented by the formula (II): ##STR12## [where R'.sub.2 represents R.sub.2 or R.sub.2 whose amino group is protected by an amino protective group; R'.sub.3 represents a carboxyl protective group; A represents chlorine or a group represented by the formula --OSO.sub.2 R.sub.8 [where R.sub.8 is a lower alkyl having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (for example, methyl) or an unsubstituted or substituted aryl group having 6 to 20 carbon atoms (for example, phenyl, naphthyl, tolyl, etc.)]; X has the same meaning as defined above} to reaction with a thiol represented by the formula HS(CH.sub.2).sub.n R.sub.1 (where R.sub.1 and n have the same meanings as defined above) in the presence of a base in an inert solvent, and, if necessary, by releasing the protective group therefrom. The process for preparing the compound (II) is disclosed in Japanese Published Unexamined patent application Ser. No. 16491/1981, which corresponds to U.S. Pat. No. 4,708,956 and U.S. patent application Ser. No. 702,623 or shown in Reference Examples.
Any amino protective group can be used as R'.sub.2 in the general formula (II), so long as it is an easily releasable amino protective group as used in the peptide chemistry, and particularly it is exemplified by trityl, formyl, chloroacetyl, bromoacetyl, 2,2,2-trichloroacetyl, t-butoxycarbonyl, benzyloxycarbonyl, etc. Any carboxyl protective group can be used as R'.sub.3, so far as it is an easily releasable protective group as used in the peptide chemistry, and particularly it is exemplified by t-butyl, benzyl, p-nitrobenzyl, benzhydryl, trityl, trimethylsilyl, etc.
The inert solvent to be used in the reaction of the compound (II) with thiol includes dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide, tetrahydrofuran, chloroform, methylene chloride, acetonitrile, etc. As a base, a metal hydride such as sodium hydride, lithium hydride, etc., an organic amine such as triethylamine, N,N-diisopropylethylamine, N-methylmorpholine, etc., can be used. The reaction is carried out at 0.degree. to 90.degree. C., and it is preferable to use 1 to 4 equivalent weights of thiol on the basis of the compound (II) and also it is preferable to use an equivalent weight of the base on the basis of thiol. The thus obtained product is subjected to the successive removal of protective group as such or after purification according to silica gel column chromatography, etc. A compound (I) where R.sub.1 is a quaternary ammonium group can also be prepared according to another procedure, i.e. by subjecting a compound (II) to reaction with a thiol represented by R'.sub.1 (CH.sub.2).sub.n SH (where R'.sub.1 represents R.sub.1 other than the quaternary ammonium group and n has the same meaning as defined above) in the same manner as described above, and by converting the product to a quaternary ammonium salt according to the conventional procedure using a compound represented by the formula R.sub.9 Z [where R.sub.9 is a straight or branched lower alkyl having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (methyl, ethyl, etc.) or a group represented by the formula --(CH.sub.2).sub.m Y' (where Y' is hydroxyl, carboxyl or carbamoyl, and m has the same meaning as defined above), and Z is a halogen such as chlorine, bromine, iodine, etc., or methanesulfonyloxy, p-toluenesulfonyloxy, trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy, etc.], and, if necessary, by releasing the protective group.
The removal of the protective group can be carried out according to the procedure frequently used in the cephalosporin chemistry without deteriorating the functional groups of the compound. For example, conversion to carboxyl group can be attained with trifluoroacetic acid, formic acid, etc. when R'.sub.3 is t-butyl or benzhydryl, or by catalytic reduction when R'.sub.3 is p-nitrobenzyl or benzhydryl. When the protective group in R'.sub.2 is t-butoxycarbonyl, it can be removed with trifluoroacetic acid or formic acid, and in the case of trityl, it can be removed by acetic acid or hydrochloric acid. In the case of benzyloxycarbonyl, it can be removed by catalytic reduction. However, a combination of releasing the carboxyl protective group and the amino protective group at the same time is desirable.
The thus obtained compound (I-1) is, if necessary, subjected to reaction with various inorganic and organic bases or to esterification, according to the conventional procedure, whereby the compound (I) having R.sub.3 other than hydrogen can be derived.
The compound (I) has a strong antibacterial effect on the gram-positive bacteria and the gram-negative bacteria, whereas its toxicity is very low. For example, LD.sub.50 values of the compounds obtained in the following Examples 2, 9 and 11 by intravenous administration against mouse are 1.8 g/kg, 1.8 g/kg and more than 2.5 g/kg, respectively. Thus, the compound (I) is useful for treatment of various infections, as a sterilizer and as an antiseptic component.
Thus, the invention includes within its scope pharmaceutical compositions comprising, as an active ingredient, a Compound (I) in association with a pharmaceutical carrier or diluent. The compounds of this invention are administered by parenteral (intramuscular, intraperitoneal, intravenous or subcutaneous injection routes), oral or rectal route of administration and can be formulated in dosage forms appropriate for each route of administration.
Preparations according to this invention for parenteral administration include sterile aqueous or non-aqueous solutions, suspensions or emulsions. Examples of non-aqueous solvents or vehicles are propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, vegetable oils such as olive oil, and injectable organic esters such as ethyl oleate. Such dosage forms may also contain adjuvants such as preserving, wetting, emulsifying and dispersing agents. They may be sterilized by, for example, filtration through a bacteria-retaining filter, by incorporating sterilizing agents into the compositions, by irradiating the compositions or by heating the compositions. They can also be manufactured in the form of sterile solid compositions which can be dissolved in sterile water or some other sterile injectable medium immediately before use.
Compositions for oral administration may be presented in a form suitable for absorption by the gastrointestinal tract. Tablets and capsules for oral administration may be in unit dose presentation form, and may contain conventional excipients such as binding agents, for example, syrup, acacia, gelatin, sorbitol, tragacanth or polyvinyl-pyrrolidone; fillers, for example, lactose, sugar, maizestarch, calcium phosphate, sorbitol or glycine; lubricants, for example, magnesium stearate, talc, polyethylene glycol, silica; disintegrants, for example, potato starch or acceptable wetting agent such as sodium lauryl sulfate. The tablets may be coated according to methods well known in the art. Oral liquid preparations may be in the form of aqueous or oily suspension, solution, emulsions, syrups, etc., or may be presented as a dry product, for reconstitution with water or other suitable vehicle before use. Such liquid preparations may contain conventional additive such as suspending agents, for example, sorbitol syrup, methyl cellulose, glucose sugar syrup, gelatin, hydroxyethylcellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, aluminum stearate gel, emulsifying agents, for example, lecithin or sorbitan monooleate; non-aqueous vehicles, which may include edible oils, for example, almond oil, coconut oil, propylene glycol or ethyl alcohol; preservatives, for example, methyl or propyl p-hydroxybenzoates or sorbic acid.
Compositions for rectal administration are preferably suppositories which may contain, in addition to the active substance, excipients such as cocoa butter or a suppository wax.
The dosage of active ingredient in the compositions of this invention may be varied; however, it is necessary that the amount of the active ingredient shall be such that a suitable dosage form is obtained. The selected dosage depends upon the desired therapeutic effect, on the route of administration, and on the duration of the treatment. Generally, dosage levels of between 10 and 350 mg/kg of body weight daily are administered to mammalian patients to achieve an antibiotic effect.
The present invention is further described below, referring to Examples and Reference Examples.
