4-oxa-1-azabicyclo [3,2,0] heptan-7-one derivatives as antitumor agents

The present invention relate to an antitumor composition comprising an effective amount of 4-oxo-1-azabicyclo[3,2,0] heptan-7-one derivatives and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Since the isolation and structure elucidation of natural .beta.-lactamase inhibitor clavulanic acid, [Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 11, 852 (1977)], as metabolized product of streptomyces clavuligerus, a number of exploratory efforts have been made to isolate another antibiotics. On the other hands, several synthetic studies also have been done for the .beta.-lactam compounds which have 4-oxa-1-azabicyclo[3,2,0] heptan-7-one (oxapenam) skeletons [DT2702091 A1, EP 0057664 A2, DT 2725690 A1, British Patent 1585661, J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans I, 2222 (1980), J. Antibiotics, 26, 217 (1983), J. Org. Chem. 50, 3457-3462 (1985), J. Antibiotics, 29, 510 (1986), ibid, 29, 516 (1987), Tetrahedron, 2467 (1987), Chem. Pharm. Bull., 39, 2813-2818 (1991)].
However, in most case, attention were paid to their strong antibacterial, antifungal and .beta.-lactamase inhibitory activities.
We paid attention to the cytotoxic activities of G0069A (JP 61-212587) and Tu1718 (DE 3727651 A1), produced by genus Streptomyces and have been trying to develop them as antitumor agents. However, there were lots of difficulties to obtain these compounds in large scale. For example, only 20 mg of G0069A was isolated from 10 L of fermentation broth even after under well controlled fermentation technique and suitable experimental conditions.
G0069A is chemically very unstable. Isolation process required very complex and special technique and should be done in dark at low temperature. In addition to the complexity in isolation of G0069A from fermentation broth, the synthetic approach is also seemed to be extremely difficult multistep process because they have 5 asymmetric centers and dipeptide side chain. Therefore, it is necessary to get compounds which are relatively easy to synthesis, have shorter chain than G0069A, chemically stable and have strong antitumor activity. ##STR2##

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
The present invention relates to the use of oxapenam derivatives having excellent antitumor activity. The compounds of this invention are characterized by having ##STR4## an alkanoyloxymethyl, thiomethyl or alkoxymethyl group on position-3 or 4-oxa-1-azabicyclo [3,2,0] heptan-7-one ring skeleton. The 3-alkanoyloxymethyl and thiomethyl derivatives were prepared by a general synthetic scheme as represented below (J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans. I, 2222, 1980). ##STR5##
Wherein X is a good leaving group and A is a nucleophile. Suitably X is a halogen atom selected from chlorine, bromine or iodine. A is an alkanoyloxy or arylthio group. M is a sodium or potassium metal.
The preparation of compound 1 was carried out by the synthetic route as described in J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans. I, 2222, 1980, starting from 4-acetoxyazetidinone. ##STR6##
Wherein X is defined as above and Y is a leaving group selected from a chlorine, bromine, iodine or methanesulphonyloxy group.
A further suitable transformation of compound I when R is S-R.sub.3, by the oxidation of a thio group with a suitable oxidizing agent, such as m-chloroperbenzoic acid, peracetic acid or hydrogen peroxide to SOR.sub.3 and SO.sub.2 R.sub.3, has been done as shown below (British Patent 1515241). ##STR7##
Wherein n=1 or 2 and R.sub.3 is the same as defined above.
The preparation of compound 10 was done by the synthetic scheme as shown below. ##STR8##
Compound 8 was prepared according to the literature procedure (British Patent 1515241) and was converted to hydroxyethyl clavam 10 [Tetrahedron, 2467-2474 (1987)] via the formyloxy ethyl clavam 9 followed by base (NaHCO.sub.3) hydrolysis.
The preparation of the compounds of formula 13 was done by the known synthetic scheme as shown below [Tetrahedron, 2467-2474 (1987)]. ##STR9##

Wherein R.sub.2 is a suitable protective group which can be removed under mild oxidative conditions such as 4-methoxybenzyl or 3,4-dimethoxybenzyl. Conversion of compound 12 to 13 (R.sub.2 =4-methoxybenzyl or 3,4-dimethoxybenzyl) was done by using a suitable base such as potassium carbonate, sodium carbonate, cesium carbonate in a non reactive solvent such as dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide, hexamethylphosphoric triamide. At this stage, two stereoisomers 13A and 13B were separated by column chromatography. Removal of a protective group was achieved by suitable oxidant such as ammonium cerium (IV) nitrate or 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ).

TEST EXAMPLE 1
In Vitro KB Cell Cytotoxicity Assay
In vitro KB cell cytotoxicity assay was done by modification of the crystal violet assay (Grillis et al., Anal Biochem., 159, 109-113 (1986)).
KB cells were cultivated in Eagles minimum essential medium supplemented with 10% calf serum and incubated at 37.degree. C. in a humidified 5% CO.sub.2 atmosphere to prepare a cell stock. Cells were counted using a neubauer hemocytometer and seeded in 96 well plates at 100 .mu.l of 3.times.10.sup.4 cells/ml and cultured for one day. Test compounds were diluted and 100 .mu.l of the solution was added in triplicate wells to give final concentration of 10, 5, 1, 0.5 and 0.1 .mu.g/ml. Control wells were identical except that test compound was absent. These were cultured for three days. Then the cells were fixed with addition of 20 .mu.l of 25% glutaraldehyde for 15 minutes, washed with water and dried. Then stained with 100 .mu.l of 0.05% crystal violet for 15 minutes, washed with water and dried. The wells were eluted with 100 .mu.l of 0.05M NaH.sub.2 PO.sub.4 /ethanol (1:1 v/v) and read at OD.sub.540 on a multiscan spectrophotometer. TD.sub.50 values were calculated using the following formula.
% Inhibition Greater than 50%--50%
% inhibition greater than 50%--% inhibition less than 50% to give the interpolative value between two dilutions.

Control wells were identical except that the test compound was absent. These were cultured for three days. Results were assayed using the microculture tetrazolium assay briefly. 50 .mu.l of MTT formazoan working solution (1:5 v/v in culture medium) was added to each well and cultures were incubated at 37.degree. C. for 4 hrs. Culture plates were centrifuged at low speed for 5 minutes. All but 10-20 .mu.l of culture medium supernatant was removed by slow aspiration and replaced by 50 .mu.l of DMSO. The formazoan was dissolved by shaking on a mechanical shaker and read at OD.sub.540 on a multiscan spectrophotometer. TD.sub.50 values were calculated using the formula: ##EQU1## to give interpolative values between two dilutions.
The compounds of formula (I) were assayed by this method against L-1210 cell lines and the TD.sub.50 values are summarized in Table 1.

TEST EXAMPLE 3
In Vivo Antitumor Activity Against Sarcoma 180
The compound of general formula (I) were tested in vivo against Sarcoma 180 xenografted tumor to mice as illustrated herein after.
Sarcoma 180, 5.times.10.sup.6 cells were inoculated by S.C. to male ICR mice (6 weeks old) on day 0. Drugs were administered on days 1, 5 and 9. Mice were killed and tumor weight was measured on day 12 after transplantation. The percentage inhibition of tumor growth was calculated from the mean tumor weight of the treated group compared with that of the control group. Number of mice used in each group was between 6 to 10. The percentage inhibition of tumor Sarcoma 180 group by compound of formula (I) are summarized in Table 2.
