7-[2-(2-Imino-4-thiazolin-4-yl)-2-(syn)-hydroxy-iminoacetamido]-cephalosporins

This invention relates to novel antimicrobial agents useful for the treatment of diseases in animals including domestic fowls and human and particularly for the prevention or treatment of infectious diseases caused by Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria in those animals.
More concretely, this invention relates to 2-(syn)-hydroxyimino-acetamide derivatives of the formula: ##STR2## , wherein Y is hydrogen, hydroxyl, acyloxy, carbamoyloxy, quaternary ammonium or a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic thio, pharmaceutically acceptable salts and ester thereof. The invention also relates to processes for the production of the same.
Today several types of semi-synthetic cephalosporins known to possess broad antibacterial spectra are available on the market and have been clinically employed for the management of various infectious diseases. However, it has been reported that those agents are not practically active against all the pathogenic bacteria encountered in clinical situations. For example, it is known that certain strains of Escherichia coli, certain Citrobacter bacteria, a large majority of indole-positive pathogenic bacteria of the genus Proteus, the genus Enterobacter, the genus Serratia and the genus Pseudomonas are cephalosporin-resistant (Warren E. Wick, Cephalosporins and Penicillins; Chemistry and Biology, Chapter 11, edited by E. H. Flynn, Academic Press, 1972). Therefore, the search for new cephalosporins which are clinically effective against these pathogens is still being continued.
Under these circumstances, we have continued to create a vast number of new cephalosporin derivatives and to examine their pharmaceutical properties. We have now succeeded in synthesizing the above cephalosporin derivatives [I], their salts and esters and have found that these compounds are inhibitory against a wide variety of bacteria including Gram-positive bacteria and Gram-negative bacteria.
In particular, the beneficial features of the antimicrobial activity of the compounds of this invention are as follows. A preferred group of compounds of this invention not only displays practically sufficient activity against Gram-positive bacteria including Staphylococcus aureus but also exhibit activity against a broad spectrum of Gram-negative bacteria including Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus vulgaris, Proteus mirabilis, Proteus morganii, Proteus rettgeri, Citrobacter freundii, Enterobacter cloacae and Serratia marcescens. These superior characteristics are particularly pronounced with respect to activity against mutants of the aforementioned bacteria having .beta.-lactamase (cephalosporinase).
Referring to formula [I], Y is hydrogen, hydroxyl, an acyloxy, carbamoyloxy, a quaternary ammonium and a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic thio.
The acyloxy is preferably a group of the formula --OT wherein T may for example be an aliphatic or aromatic carbonyl group having 2 to 10 carbon atoms such as acetyl, propionyl, benzoyl, etc. or reactive acyl groups such as those mentioned in German Patent Applications (OLS) 2607064 and 2619243. Those reactive acyl groups include, among others, 3-oxobutyryl, mandelyl, 3-carboxypropionyl, 2-carboxybenzoyl, 2-(N-carbethoxycarbamoyl)benzoyl, 2-(N-carbethoxysulfamoyl)benzoyl and 2-carboxy-3-(or6)-nitrobenzoyl. Although these reactive acyl groups do not contribute as much to the antimicrobial activity as does the acetyl group, they are highly reactive to water, an amine corresponding to the quaternary ammonium or a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic thio, as mentioned below.
The quaternary ammonium may be a substituted or unsubstituted pyridinium of the general formula: ##STR3## [wherein Z is hydrogen, an alkyl of one to four carbon atoms (e.g. methyl), carbamoyl, carboxyl, sulfo or an alkoxy of one to four carbon atoms (e.g. methoxy)], which includes pyridinium, a pyridinium substituted by carbamoyl (e.g. 3-carbamoylpyridinium, 4-carbamoylpyridinium etc.), a pyridinium substituted by sulfo (e.g. 4-sulfopyridinium, etc.), an alkylated pyridinium (e.g. 3-methylpyridinium, 4-methylpyridinium), a carboxypyridinium (e.g. 3-carboxypyridinium, 4-carboxypyridinium, etc.). The quarternary ammonium may also be quinolinium, picolinium, lutidinium etc. A preferable class of the quaternary ammonium is a pyridinium which may be substituted by a carbamoyl at the 4 position on the pyridinium ring. When the compound of the present invention contains a quaternary ammonium group, it may assume a betaine structure, for example: ##STR4## wherein Z is as defined above.
The nitrogen-containing heterocyclic thio group represented by Y may be a group of the formula: --S--Het wherein Het is a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic group containing one to four nitrogen atoms and optionally further containing oxygen or a sulfur atom, and wherein said heterocylcic group may optionally have one or two substituents. As examples of such heterocyclic groups there may be mentioned six-membered heterocyclic groups including only one nitrogen atom (e.g. pyridyl, N-oxopyridyl), six-membered heterocyclic groups including two nitrogen atoms (e.g. pyrimidyl, pyridazinyl, N-oxopyridazinyl), five-membered heterocyclic groups including two nitrogen atoms (e.g. pyrazolyl, imidazolyl, etc.), five-membered heterocyclic groups including one nitrogen atom and one sulfur atom (e.g. thiazolyl), five-membered heterocyclic groups including two nitrogen atoms and one sulfur atom (e.g. 1,2,3-thiadiazolyl, 1,2,4-thiadiazolyl, 1,3,4-thiadiazolyl, 1,2,5-thiadiazolyl), five-membered heterocyclic groups including two nitrogen atoms and one oxygen atom (e.g. 1,2,3-oxadiazolyl, 1,2,4-oxadiazolyl, 1,3,4-oxadiazolyl, 1,2,5-oxadiazolyl), five-membered heterocyclic groups including three nitrogen atoms (e.g. 1,2,3-triazolyl, 1,2,4-triazolyl); and five-membered heterocyclic groups including four nitrogen atoms (e.g. 1H-tetrazolyl, 2H-tetrazolyl). Such heterocyclic groups may have, preferably, one or two substituents on the heterocyclic ring. The substituent is for example an alkyl of one to four carbon atoms (e.g. methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, etc.); a haloalkyl of one to four carbon atoms (e.g. trifluoromethyl); an alkoxy of one to four carbon atoms (e.g. methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, isopropoxy, butoxy, etc.); halogen (e.g. chlorine, bromine, etc.); hydroxyl; mercapto; amino; carboxyl; carbamoyl; a residue of the formula: --X--Z.sup.1 wherein X is an alkylene of one to four carbon atoms and Z.sup.1 is hydroxyl, mercapto, amino, a mono- or di-alkylamino wherein the alkyl has one to four carbon atoms (e.g. dimethylamino, monoethylamino, etc.), guanyl, carboxyl, sulfo, carbamoyl, an alkoxycarbonyl wherein the alkyl has one to four carbon atoms (e.g. methoxycarbonyl, ethoxycarbonyl), a mono- or di-alkylcarbamoyl wherein the alkyl has one to four carbon atoms (e.g. N,N-dimethylcarbamoyl), an alkoxy of one to four carbon atoms (e.g. methoxy, ethoxy, n-propoxy), an alkylthio wherein the alkyl has one to four carbon atoms (e.g. methylthio), an alkylsulfonyl wherein the alkyl has one to four carbon atoms (e.g. methylsulfonyl) or an alkylcarbonyl wherein the alkyl has one to four carbon atoms (e.g. acetyl, n-propionyl); a residue of the formula: --S--Z.sup.2 wherein Z.sup.2 is an alkyl of one to four carbon atoms or the above-defined residue --X--Z.sup.1 ; or a residue of the formula: ##STR5## wherein each of Z.sup.3 and Z.sup.4 is an alkyl of one to four carbon atoms, the above-defined residue --X--Z.sup.1, an alkoxycarbonyl wherein the alkoxy has one to four carbon atoms (e.g. methoxycarbonyl), an alkylcarbonyl wherein the alkyl has one to four carbon atoms (e.g. acetyl), carbamoyl or a mono- or di-alkylcarbamoyl wherein the alkyl has one to four carbon atoms (e.g. N,N-dimethylcarbamoyl), etc.
Thus, the substituent of the formula: --X--Z.sup.1 on the heterocyclic group (Het) includes carboxymethyl, carbamoylmethyl, a mono- or di- alkyl(C.sub.1-4)carbamoylmethyl (e.g. N,N-dimethylcarbamoylmethyl), hydroxyalkyl(C.sub.1-4) (e.g. hydroxymethyl, 2-hydroxyethyl), an alkyl(C.sub.1-4)-carbonyloxy-alkyl(C.sub.1-4) (e.g. acetoxymethyl, 2-acetoxyethyl), an alkoxy(C.sub.1-4)carbonylmethyl (e.g. methoxycarbonylmethyl), methylthiomethyl, methylsulfonylmethyl, aminoethyl, a mono- or di-alkyl(C.sub.1-4)-amino-alkyl(C.sub.1-4) (e.g. N,N-dimethylaminomethyl, N-methylaminoethyl, N,N-dimethylaminoethyl), guanylmethyl, guanylethyl, etc. The substituent of the formula: --S--Z.sup.2 on the heterocyclic group (Het) includes methylthio, 2-hydryxyethylthio, 2-acetoxyethylthio, carboxymethylthio, an alkoxy(C.sub.1-4)carbonylmethylthio (e.g. methoxycarbonylmethylthio), carbamoylmethylthio, N,N-dimethylcarbamoylthio, acetylmethylthio, 2-sulfoethylthio, etc.
The substituent of the formula: ##STR6## on the heterocyclic group (Het) includes a mono- or di-alkyl(C.sub.1-4)amino (e.g. methylamino), a sulfo-alkyl(C.sub.1-4)amino (e.g. 2-sulfoethylamino), a hydroxyalkyl(C.sub.1-4)amino (e.g. 2-hydroxyethylamino), a mono- or di-alkyl (C.sub.1-4)amino-alkyl (C.sub.1-4)amino (e.g. 2-dimethylaminoethylamino), an alkyl(C.sub.1-4)carbonylamino (e.g. acetylamino), 2-dimethylaminoacetylamino, an alkoxy(C.sub.1-4)carbonylamino (e.g. methoxycarbonylamino), etc.
An important class of the nitrogen-containing heterocyclic thio groups represented by Y is shown by the formulas: ##STR7## wherein R.sub.1 is hydrogen or a residue of the formula: --(CH.sub.2).sub.n P [in which n is an integer from 1 to 3 and P is hydrogen, hydroxyl, an alkoxy(C.sub.1-4), an alkyl(C.sub.1-4)thio, a residue of the formula: -COOR.sup.4 (in which R.sup.4 is hydrogen or an alkyl(C.sub.1-4)), a residue of the formula: ##STR8## (in which each of R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 is hydrogen or an alkyl(C.sub.1-4)) or a residue of the formula: ##STR9## (in which each of R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 is as defined above)], and each of R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 is hydrogen, amino, carbamoyl, a residue of the formula: --NHCOOR.sup.7 (in which R.sup.7 is an alkyl(C.sub.1-4)), a residue of the formula: --S--(CH.sub.2).sub.n Q (in which n is an integer from 1 to 3 and Q is carboxyl, hydroxyl, hydrogen or sulfo) or a residue of the formula: --(CH.sub.2).sub.n P (in which each of n and P is as defined above). In the above, "alkyl(C.sub.1-4)" and "alkoxy(C.sub.1-4)" means "alkyl of one to four carbon atoms" and "alkoxy of one to four carbon atoms, respectively.
An important class of the compounds of the invention are those wherein the substituent Y is hydrogen, acetoxy, carbamoyloxy or the above-mentioned important class of nitrogen-containing heterocyclic thio groups.
The most preferred group of the Y substituents is acetoxy, carbamoyloxy, 3-substituted-1,2,4-thiadiazol-5-ylthio, 2-substituted-1,3,4-oxadiazol-5-ylthio, 1-substituted-imidazol-2-ylthio, 1-substituted-1H-tetrazol-5-ylthio, 2-substituted-1,3,4-thiadiazol-5-ylthio, 3,4-disubstituted-1,2,4-triazol-5-ylthio or 4-substituted-thiazol-2-ylthio, the substituent being methyl, carboxymethyl, hydroxymethyl, hydroxyethyl, carbamoylmethyl, 2-N,N-dimethylaminoethyl, methoxymethyl or ethoxycarbonylmethyl, the two substituents of 3,4-disubstituted-1,2,4-triazol-5-ylthio being the same or different. For the purpose of combatting bacteria the compound [I] may be employed as the free zwitterion compound or in other forms such as pharmaceutically acceptable salts, e.g. the salts of nontoxic cations such as sodium, potassium, etc.; the salts of basic amino acids such as arginine, ornithine, lysine, histidine, etc.; the salts of polyhydroxyalkylamines such as N-methylglucamine, diethanolamine, triethanolamine, trishydroxymethylamino trishydroxymethylaminomethane, etc.; the salts of inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, etc.; and the salts of organic acids (e.g. oxalic acid, fumaric acid, tartaric acid, etc.). The compound [I] or its above-mentioned salt may also be employed in the form of biologically active esters in the 4-carboxyl function, which ester derivatives would contribute to an elevated blood level and an increased duration of efficacy. Among the esters useful for the above purpose, there may be mentioned the group consisting of an alkoxy(C.sub.1-4)methyl ester, an alkoxy(C.sub.1-4)ethyl ester, an alkyl(C.sub.1-4)thiomethyl ester, an alkyl(C.sub.1-4)carbonyloxymethyl ester or an alkoxy(C.sub.1-4)carbonyloxyalkyl(C.sub.1-4) ester (e.g. alkoxy(C.sub.1-4)carbonyloxymethyl, etc.). More concretely, the esters include methoxyethyl ester, ethoxymethyl ester, isopropoxymethyl ester, .alpha.-methoxyethyl ester, .alpha.-ethoxyethyl ester, ethylthiomethyl ester, isopropylthiomethyl ester, pivaloyloxymethyl ester, .alpha.-acetoxybutyl ester and 1-(ethoxycarbonyloxy)ethyl ester, etc.
The compounds of this invention may assume a couple of different tautomeric forms by the tautomerization depicted below. ##STR10## [wherein Ceph is ##STR11## and wherein Y is defined hereinabove].
The form of existence of these types of compounds has been studied by many workers and the literature refers to the thiazoline form in several cases [G. J. Kruger and G. Gafner, Acta Cryst. B 27, 326 (1971); and J. M. Vandenbelt and L. Doub, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 66, 1633 (1944)] and the thiazole form in other cases [L. M. Werbel, Chem. & Ind. (1966), 1634].
However, based on various determinations, the compounds of this invention are thought to predominantly assume the thiazoline form since that particular form is stabilized by a contribution from the hydrogen bonding shown in the formula below. ##STR12## [wherein the symbol Ceph is as defined above]. However, as is true of any equilibrium-relation of this type, the above equilibrium is liable to shift either way in response to the various conditions under which the compounds of this invention may be placed, such as the pH and polarity of the solvent, temperature, kinds of substituents and other parameters. Therefore, the compounds of this invention may be designated by any of these alternative systems or corresponding nomenclatures thereof. In this specification and the claims appended thereto, however, all the compounds of the invention are designated by their thiazoline forms. This invention should, however, be construed to cover all the above tautomers.
The compounds of this invention are active against Gram-positive bacteria as well as Gram-negative bacteria, as mentioned above. They can be safely administered, as are the known cephalosporin drugs, in the form of powders or as a solution, suspension, ointment or other dosage forms as formulated with physiologically acceptable carriers, vehicles or excipients in the conventional manner. Said carriers, vehicles, excipients include water, physiological saline for injection or solution, and starch and lactose for powders. Among them, physiological saline is preferred.
For instance, the compounds of this invention can be employed as safe drugs for the prevention or therapy of infectious diseases caused by bacteria including pustulent diseases, respiratory tract infections, bile duct infections, intestinal infections, urinary tract infections and gyneco-obstetrical infections. The hosts to which the compounds are to administered include human-beings or other warm-blooded animals including rat, mouse, dog, horse, etc.
For the therapy of the above diseases, for example, urinary tract infections, the following exemplary compounds, among other end product compounds of this invention, are preferably administered intramuscularly or intravenously at a daily dose level of about 1 to 20 mg per kg body weight in the case of adult humans, in three to four divided doses per day.

On account of their antibacterial properties, the compounds of this invention may also be used as antiinfective agents or disinfectants for removing bacteria including the afore-mentioned or below-mentioned bacteria from surgical instruments or hospital rooms.
For example, surgical instruments are placed for 2 days in an aqueous solution containing 1000 .mu.g /ml of any of the compounds of this invention for the above purpose.
With respect to the antibacterial properties of the present compounds, the compounds [I] and their salts have higher antibacterial activity than the esters of the compounds [I] as it is. However, the esters are hydrolyzed for example in the living tissue of the host, and the esters are converted into the compound [I] of their salts.
The compounds [I] of this invention, pharmaceutically acceptable salts or esters thereof are produced by procedures which are conventional per se.
The compond [I] or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or ester thereof is produced by a method which comprises reacting a compound of the formula: ##STR13## wherein W is chlorine or bromine and Y is as defined above; or a salt or ester thereof with thioreau. The salts of the compounds [II] include acid addition salt (e.g. hydrochloric acid salts, sulfuric acid salt, nitric acid salt, etc.) at the basic function of the compound [II] and the basic addition salts (e.g. sodium salt, potassium salt, pyridine salt, triethylamine salt, etc.) at the acidic function of the compound [II]. The esters of the compounds [II] are those corresponding to the above-mentioned esters of the compounds [I].
The amount of thiourea relative to the compound [II], or salts or esters thereof is 1.0 to 5.0 moles per mole of compound [II], or a salt or ester thereof. The reaction is normally carried out by admixing the compound [II], a salt or ester thereof with thiourea at a temperature from 0.degree. to 80.degree. C. The reaction is preferably carried out in a solvent. The solvent is desirably a solvent that does not interfere with the reaction. Preferably, one of the so-called polar aprotic solvents such as dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, dimethylsulfoxide, acetonitrile, hexamethylphosphoramide, etc. or a mixture thereof is employed with advantage. The reaction time varies with the kind of the starting material, reaction temperature, kind of the solvent or other reaction conditions. However, the reaction goes to completion within a time ranging from 0.5 hour to 3 days.
The compounds of the present invention may be produced by another method i.e. by a nucleophilic displacement reaction. When Y in the formula [I] is hydroxyl, a quaternary ammonium or a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic thio, the compounds of the invention are also produced by a method which comprises reacting a compound of the formula: ##STR14## , wherein M is an acyloxy, or a salt or ester thereof with water, an amine corresponding to the quaternary ammonium or a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic thiol.
The kind of salts and esters of the compound [III] are the same as with those of the compound [II].
The acyloxy group M may for example be acetyloxy, 3-oxobutyryloxy, 3-carboxypropionyloxy, 2-carboxybenzoyloxy, mandelyloxy, 2-(N-carboethoxycarbamoyl)benzoyloxy, 2-(N-carboethoxysulfamoyl)benzoyloxy, 2- carboxy-3 (or 6)-nitrobenzoyloxy or the like. This transformation reaction, viewed only in the context of the 3-position of the cephem ring which is to be transformed, is a nucleophilic substitution reaction of the 3-acyloxy group and, as such, is essentially identical with the nucleophilic substitution reactions described in a number of prior art publications and patents (e.g. E. H. Flynn (ed.) "Cephalosporins and Penicillins", Chapter 4, Part 5, 151, 1972, Academic Press; Japanese Patent Publication 17936/1964; Japanese Patent Publication 26972/1964; and Japanese Patent Publication 11283/1968). Therefore, the above reaction can be carried out by one of those known methods or any method similar thereto.
As to the reaction between compound [III], its salt or ester and water, the reaction proceeds in accordance with the known hydrolysis. The hydrolysis reaction is normally carried out at a temperature between -20.degree. C. and 50.degree. C. The reaction proceeds faster in the presence of an inorganic base (e.g. sodium hydroxide) potassium hydroxide, etc.). The reaction goes to completion within 48 hours.
As to the reaction between the amine with the compound [III] or a salt thereof, the amine is one that corresponds to the quaternary ammonium. Thus the amine to be employed in the reaction includes pyridine compounds of the formula: ##STR15## wherein Z is as defined above. The amount of the amine is 1.0 to 10 moles per mole of the compound [III] or a salt thereof. The reaction is carried out at a temperature between 0.degree. C. and 100.degree. C. The reaction is advantageously carried out in the presence of an organic or inorganic solvent. The solvent is for example water, deuterium oxide, dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, dioxane, acetone, methanol, ethanol, dimethylsulfoxide, acetonitrile, tetraydrofuran etc. or mixtures thereof. The reaction goes to completion within 48 hours.
As to the reaction beteen the nitrogen-containing heterocylic thiol and the compound [III] or a salt thereof, the nitrogen-containing heterocyclic thiol is a thiol compound corresponding to the above-defined nitrogen-containing heterocyclic thio group. Thus, the nitrogen-containing heterocyclic thiol includes compounds of the formula:
HS--Het
wherein Het is as defined above. The nitrogen-containing heterocyclic thiol may be used as the free thiol as such but, advantageously, is employed in the form of a salt such as an alkali metal salt, e.g. the sodium or potassium salt. The amount of the nitrogen-containing heterocyclic thiol relative to the compound [III] or a salt thereof is 1.0 to 5.0 moles per mole of the compound [III] or a salt thereof. This reaction is preferably conducted in a solvent. The solvent may for example be water, deuterium oxide or an organic solvent which is readily miscible with water and does not react with the starting materials, e.g. dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, dioxane, acetone, alcohol, acetonitrile, dimethylsulfoxide, tetrahydrofuran, etc. While the reaction temperature and time depend upon the starting material and solvent, among other factors, the reaction is generally carried out at an appropriate temperature from 0.degree. to 100.degree. C. for an appropriate time ranging from a few minutes to several days. The reaction is conducted in the neighborhood of neutrality, i.e. between pH 2 and pH 8 and, preferably, in the range of pH 5 to 8. The reaction may optionally be conducted more smoothly by incorporating in the reaction system, a quaternary ammonium salt having surface active properties, such as trimethylbenzylammonium bromide, triethylbenzylammonium bromide or triethylbenzylammonium hydroxide. Moreover, advantageous results are obtained when the reaction is conducted in an atmosphere of an inert gas, e.g. nitrogen, so as to prevent atmospheric oxidation.
The compounds of this invention may also be produced by another well known method, i.e. the acylation reaction method.
The compounds of this invention are produced by a method which comprises reacting a compound of the formula: ##STR16## wherein Y is as defined above, or a salt or ester thereof with an acylating agent derived from a syn-isomeric carboxylic acid of the formula: ##STR17## wherein R.sup.8 is hydrogen or a protecting group and R.sup.9 is hydrogen or a protecting group. The kind of salt or ester of the compound [IV] is the same as that of compound [II]. The protecting group represented by R.sup.8 is an easily cleavable protecting group which is well known in the field of peptide chemistry. Thus the protecting group R.sup.8 includes formyl, an alkyl(C.sub.1-4)carbonyl group (e.g. acetyl, propionyl, etc.), a substituted alkyl(C.sub.1-4)carbonyl group (e.g. chloroacetyl etc.), an alkoxy(C.sub.1-4)carbonyl group (e.g. t-butoxycarbonyl, etc.), an alkoxy(C.sub.1-4)alkyl(C.sub.1-4)carbonyl group (e.g. methoxyacetyl), methoxypropionyl, etc.), a substituted alkoxy(C.sub.1-4)carbonyl group (e.g. trichloroethoxycarbonyl, etc.), an aralkyl(C.sub.7-10)oxycarbonyl group (e.g. benzyloxycarbonyl, etc.), or a substituted aralkyl(C.sub.7-10)oxycarbonyl group (e.g. p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl, etc.), or a proton.
The protecting group R.sup.9 is a an easily cleavable protecting group well known among chemists, which can be removed under mild conditions. The protecting group R.sup.9 is exemplified by an acyl group such as formyl, acetyl, chloroacetyl, trifluoroacetyl, methoxyacetyl, phenoxyacetyl, benzoyl, benzoylformyl, p-nitrobenzoyl, ethoxycarbonyl, .beta.,.beta.,.beta.-trichloroethoxycarbonyl, .beta., .beta., .beta.-tribromoethoxycarbonyl, p-nitrophenoxycarbonyl, and a substituted alkyl such as a tetrahydrothiofuranyl, methoxy, methoxytetrahydropyranyl, etc. tetrahydropyranyl and 2-methoxyethoxymethyl, and also by a silyl group such as trimethylsilyl, dimethyl-t-butylsilyl, etc.
In this process, the compound [V] is employed, either as a free compound [V], its salt or in the form of a reactive derivative, as an acylating agent for the acylation of the amino group in the 7-position of compound [IV] or a salt or ester thereof. Thus, the free acid [V], an alkali or alkaline earth metal salt of the free acid [V] (e.g. sodium, potassium or calcium salt) an organic amine salt of the free acid [V] (e.g. trimethylamine or pyridine salt) or a reactive derivative thereof [such as a corresponding acid halide (e.g. acid chloride or acid bromide), acid anhydride, mixed acid anhydride, active amide, active ester or the like] is subjected to the aforementioned reaction. As examples of said active ester there may be mentioned the p-nitrophenyl ester, 2,4-dinitrophenyl ester, pentachlorophenyl ester, N-hydroxysuccinimide ester and N-hydroxyphthalmide ester. As examples of said mixed acid anhydride there may be mentioned mixed acid anhydride with a carbonic acid monoester (e.g. carbonic acid monomethyl ester or carbonic acid monisobutyl ester) and a mixed acid anhydride with a lower alkanoic acid having one to five carbon atoms which may be substituted by halogen (e.g. pivalic acid or trichloroacetic acid). Where the carboxylic acid [V] is employed as the free acid or in the form of a salt, there is employed a suitable condensing agent. As examples of said condensing agent may be mentioned N,N'-di-substituted carbodiimides, e.g. N,N'-dicyclohexyl-carbodiimide; azolides, e.g. N,N'-carbonylimidazole and N,N'-thionyldiimidazole; dehydrating agents, e.g. N-ethoxycarbonyl-2-ethoxy-1,2- dihydroquinoline, phosphorus oxychloride and alkoxyacetylene; 2-halogenopyridinium salts (e.g. 2-chloropyridiniummethyl iodide, 2-fluoropyridiniummethyl iodide) and the like. Where such a condensing agent is employed, it is presumed that the reaction proceeds via the reactive derivative of the carboxylic acid [V] coupled with the condensing agent.
This reaction between the compound [IV], or a salt or ester thereof with the acylating agent proceeds readily under per se known conditions. For example, the reaction may be conducted under conditions analogous to those disclosed in German Patent Application (OLS) No. P 2461478. The reaction is usually conducted in a suitable inert solvent. As examples of such a solvent there may be mentioned halogenated hydrocarbons, e.g. chloroform, methylene chloride, etc.; ethers, e.g. tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, etc.; dimethylformamide; dimethylacetamide; acetone; water and mixtures thereof. The proportion of said acylating agent is normally within the range of about 1 to 5, preferably 1 to 2, molar equivalents, based on the compound [IV] or a salt or ester thereof. This reaction is generally carried out at a temperature in the range of -50.degree. to +40.degree. C. The reaction time is one to ten hours, preferably one to three hours. Following the acylation reaction, the protective groups R.sup.8 or/and R.sup.9 may be removed, if desired. The removal of the protective groups R.sup.8 or/and R.sup.9 may be generally accomplished by procedures known per se [e.g. by the procedure described in Japanese Patent Application Laid Open No. 52083/1975 and Pure and Applied Chemistry, 7, 335(1963)] or a procedure analogous thereto.
Thus, for example, t-butoxycarbonyl represented by R.sup.8 may be removed by treatment with an aqueous solution of an acid (e.g. hydrogen chloride, sulfuric acid etc.), and monochloroacetyl represented by R.sup.8 may be removed by treatment with thiourea. Formyl or trifluoroacetyl represented by R.sup.9 may be removed by treatment with potassium hydrogen carbonate in aqueous methanol, and tetrahydropyranyl represented by R.sup.9 may be removed by treatment with dilute hydrochloric acid. The removal of the protecting group is carried out under conditions known per se.
When the end product [I] is produced in the form of the free acid, it can be converted into a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof by a per se conventional procedure.
When the end product of the present invention is obtained in the form of a salt, it can be converted into the free form or any other salts by a per se well known procedure.
When the end product of the present invention is obtained in the form of free carboxylic acid or its salt at the 4 position, it may be esterified into an ester in accordance with conventional means, the kind of ester having been detailedly defined hereinabove. More concretely, the ester is produced by a method, which comprises reacting a compound [I] or a salt or reactive derivative thereof with a compound of the formula:
HO --R.sup.10 [VI]
, in which R.sup.10 is an ester residue, or a reactive derivative thereof. The kind of salt of compound [I] includes that of compound [II], and the kind of reactive derivative of compound [I] is the same as that of compound [V]. The reactive derivative of the compound [VI] includes a compound of the formula: Hal-R.sup.10' [VI'] in which Hal is halogen and R.sup.10' is an alkoxy(C.sub.1-4)methyl, an alkoxy(C.sub.1-4)ethyl, an alkyl(C.sub.1-4)thiomethyl, an alkyl(C.sub.1-4)carbonyloxymethyl or an alkoxy(C.sub.1-4)carbonyloxyalkyl(C.sub.1-4). Examples of these groups have been mentioned in detail hereinabove with reference to compound [I].
The symbol Hal means chlorine, fluorine, bromine or iodine, and Hal is preferably iodine or bromine.
Thus the compound of the formula [VI'] is exemplified by methoxymethyl chloride, methylthiomethyl chloride, chloromethyl acetate, bromomethyl acetate, bromomethyl pivalate, iodomethyl pivalate, iodomethyl ethoxycarbonate, etc.
When the starting compound [I] is used in the free carboxylic acid form at the 4 position, it is preferable to carry out the reaction in the presence of a base. The base is for example, an inorganic base such as sodium hydrogen carbonate, potassium hydrogen carbonate, lithium carbonate, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate etc. or an organic base such as dicycloyhexylamine, morpholine, N-ethylaniline, N-N-diethylaniline, N-methylmorpholine, pyridine, triethylamine, etc.
The reaction may be carried out in a solvent such as acetonitrile, N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, N,N-dimethylformamide, dichloromethane, chloroform, dimethylsulfoxide, diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, liquid sulfuric anhydride. Among them, dimethylformamide, acetone, acetonitrile and liquid sulfuric anhydride are preferred.
The amount of the base is usually one equivalent relative the starting compound [I] or a salt thereof.
The reaction is preferably carried out at a temperature between -20.degree. C. and 20.degree. C. When liquid sulfuric anhydride is used as the solvent, the reaction temperature is preferably a temperature in a range from -20.degree. C. to -10.degree. C.
The reaction time varies with the kind of starting materials, reaction temperature, the kind of solvent etc., but it is usually from 10 minutes to 120 hours.
After any of the reactions which produce the compounds of the present invention, the desired compound is isolated from the reaction mixture in accordance with per se known procedures. The compounds of the present invention may be purified by known techniques. Such procedures or techniques are exemplified by extraction, pH adjustment, concentration, crystallization, recrystallization, chromatography, etc.
The compound [I], or a salt or ester thereof of this invention has a hydroxyl group in the syn configuration relative to the acetamide group (i.e. --CONH--) at the 7 position. However, there are cases in which the formation of compound [I] is accompanied by the formation of the anti isomer of the formula: ##STR18## , wherein Y is as defined above, a corresponding salt or ester thereof, even if only the corresponding syn-isomeric starting compound is used. However, in the method comprising the reaction between (1) compound [III] or a salt thereof and (2) water, the amine or the nitrogen-containing heterocyclic thio or the method comprising the reaction between (1) the compound [II], a salt or ester thereof and (2) thiourea when the starting material [II], [III] or a salt or ester thereof is a substantially pure synisomer, the yield of the anti isomer [I'] does not exceed 10% of that of the compound [I].
Of course, when syn isomeric starting compound [II], [III] or [V] is employed in combination with the corresponding anti isomeric compound, the reaction mixture contains the compounds [I] and [I'] (i.e. syn and anti isomeric mixture). This is of course also true in the case where a salt or ester of the compound [II], [III] or [V] is employed as the starting material. The desired syn isomer [I], or a salt or ester thereof is easily separated or isolated by well known means such as chromatography, fractional crystallization etc.
The compound [II], or a salt or ester thereof is produced by the following scheme, by the methods described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open Application No. 95293/1975, No. 11093/1975 and No. 56487/1976 or Japanese Patent Application No. 1274/1976 or by any method similar to any of those methods, for instance: ##STR19## wherein each of W and Y is as defined above.
Firstly, bromine or chlorine represented by W.sub.2 is reacted with diketene, e.g. of the formula [VII], the amount of bromine or chlorine being equimolar to the diketene. Then, the thus produced compound [VIII] is reacted with compound [IX] or a salt or ester thereof in a manner known per se to produce compound [X], a salt ester thereof. The compound [IX], or a salt or ester thereof can be produced by any of the known methods, for example, by the method described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 11782/1976, German Patent Application Laid-Open No. P 2607064 and No. P 2619243 or any other methods analogous thereto. Thus, compound [IX] or a salt or ester thereof can be obtained by converting the 3-position substituent of a 7-acylamino-3-acetoxymethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid or 7-acylamino-3-hydroxymethyl-3-caphem-4-carboxylic acid, or a salt or ester thereof to a desired --CH.sub.2 Y group and, then, removing the 7-acyl group, or alternatively by subjecting an 7-amino-3-activated acyloxymethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid (of which the activated acyloxy group is described hereinabove) or a salt thereof directly to a nucleophilic substitution reaction with water, an amine corresponding to the quaternary ammonium or the nitrogen-containing heterocyclic thiol.
Then the compound [X], or a salt or ester thereof is reacted with a nitrosating agent to obtain the compound [II], or a salt or ester thereof. As to the salt of the compound [X], for example, where a basic group is present in the substituent Y of compound [X] (e.g. where Y is 1-(2-N,N-dimethylaminoethyl)-1H-tetrazol-5-ylthio), compound [X] may be reacted as an acid salt at that basic function, for example the salt of a mineral acid (e.g. hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid) or the salt of an organic acid (e.g. oxalic acid, or p-toluenesulfonic acid). Where a strongly acidic group is present in the substituent Y of compound [X] (e.g. where Y is 2-(2-sulfoethylamino)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-5-ylthio), compound [X] may be reacted as an inorganic or organic salt in that acidic function, e.g. the salt of an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal (e.g. lithium, sodium or potassium) or an organic basic salt (e.g. triethylamine salt).
As the nitrosating agent, there may normally be employed one of such agents such as nitrous acid, nitrous acid esters such as methyl nitrite, ethyl nitrite, amyl nitrite, etc. and nitrosyl chloride, for instance. Nitrous acid may be used as it is produced in the reaction system by the reaction of an alkali metal nitrite with an acid, e.g. hydrochloric acid or acetic acid.
The nitrosation reaction, i.e. the reaction between compound [X], or a salt or ester thereof and the nitrosating agent is preferably carried out in a solvent. Any solvent which does not interfere with the reaction can be employed. Normally, dioxane, acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran, water, acetic acid or an appropriate mixture of such solvents is employed. This reaction is hastened by the presence of an acid. Most conveniently this acid is hydrochloric acid or acetic acid. The amount of the acid is one mole or more per mole of compound [I]. Normally the nitrosation reaction is preferably carried out at room temperature (25.degree.-35.degree. C.) or under cooling or slight heating. Thus, the reaction is carried out at a temperature between -20.degree. C. and 50.degree. C.
By this nitrosation reaction, the hydroxime compound [II] having a syn-configuration with respect to the acylamide group can be obtained with high efficiency. Under certain circumstances there is obtained a stereoisomer having an anti-configuration as shown by the formula [II'], in some minor amount, together with the aforesaid compound [II] but, in many cases, the yield of the stereoisomer [II'] does not exceed 10 percent of the amount of [II]. ##STR20## [wherein W and Y are as hereinbefore defined].
This is a particularly advantageous feature of this invention which is directed to the production of a compound [I] which has a syn-configuration as does the compound [II]. The compound [II] thus obtained can be isolated and purified by conventional procedures such as solvent extraction, pH adjustment, phase transfer, crystallization, recrystallization, chromatography, etc.
The nitrogen-containing heterocyclcic thiol (e.g. the above mentioned compound of the formula: HS-Het in which Het is as defined above) can be produced (1) by the per se known methods described, for example, in Chapter 5 of Heterocyclic Chemistry (A. R. Katritzky and J. M. Lagowsky, John Willey and Sons, 1960), Chapter 1 of Heterocylic Compounds, Vol. 8 (R. C. Elderfield, John Willey and Sons, 1967), Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry, Vol. 9 (A. R. Katritzky and A. J. Boulton, Academic Press, 1968, pp. 165 to 209, and Dai Yuki Kagaku (Munio Kotake (ed.), Asakura Shoten, Vol. 15 or by methods analogous to those known methods, or (2) by subjecting of the nitrogen-containing heterocyclic thiol, whether known or as produced by any of the above methods (1), to a per se known chemical modification reaction or reactions of any functional group or groups other than the thiol group.
The compound of the formula [V] or a salt thereof is produced by a per se known method. Thus, the compound [V] or a salt thereof is produced by a method which comprises subjecting a syn-isomeric compound of the formula: ##STR21## , wherein R.sup.8' is hydrogen or a protecting group, R.sup.9' is hydrogen or a protecting group and A is an ester residue, or a salt thereof to a deesterification reaction. The ester residue A is exemplified by an alkyl(C.sub.1-4) (e.g. methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, i-propyl, t-butyl, etc.), or an alkyl(C.sub.1-4) substituted by phenyl (e.g. benzhydryl etc.).
The deesterification reaction is carried out by a per se conventional means including hydrolysis, hydrogenolysis, acid cleavage, etc. The preferred mode of deesterification is to bring the compound [XI] or a salt thereof into contact with a mixture containing trifluoroacetic acid and anisole. The amount of each of trifluoroacetic acid and anisole is in excess relative to the compound [XI] or its salt. The reaction is carried out at a temperature between -20.degree. C. and 30.degree. C., and the reaction usually goes to completion within 5 hours. If desired, the compound [XI] may be used in combination with the corresponding anti isomer or its salt. After the reaction, the desired compound [V] or its salt may be isolated or purified by a per se conventional means such as concentration, crystallization, chromatography, etc. However, the reaction mixture containing the compound [V] or its salt may be subjected to the next reaction without purification or isolation. The above-mentioned reactive derivatives of the compound [V] are produced by a per se known methods from the compound [V] or its salt.
The compound [XI] or its salt is produced by a per se known method or methods described in the reference examples below.

The present invention is illustrated in further detail below with reference to the examples, but it is to be understood that the examples are solely for the purpose of illustration and not to be construed as limitations of the invention, and that many variations may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.

The NMR spectra given in the examples were measured using a Varian Model XL-100A (100MHz) or T-60 (60 MHz) spectrometer with tetramethylsilane as the internal or external reference and all .delta. values are in ppm. The symbol s stands for a singlet, d a doublet, dd a double doublet, t a triplet, q a quartet, m a multiplet, and J a coupling constant.

After cooling, 2.31 g (33 mM) of hydroxylamine hydrochloride was added. Then, the pH were adjusted to 3.6 with a sufficient amount of 1N-hydrochloric acid. The solution was allowed to stand at room temperature overnight. The resultant crystals were collected by filtration, washed with acetone and dried. Where the object compound was water-soluble and did not precipitate out, the reaction mixture was adjusted to pH 3.3 and concentrated under reduced pressure to about 50 ml. To the residue there were added 1500 ml of ethanol and the mixture was stirred under ice-cooling for 4 hours. The resultant crystals were collected by filtration, washed with ethanol and dried. By the above procedure there was obtained a 7-amino-3-nitrogen-containing heterocyclic thiomethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid.
(2) While a solution of 1.03 g (13 mM) of diketene in 5 ml of methylene chloride was cooled at -30.degree. C., 15 g of a solution of 1 mol (by wt.) chlorine in carbon tetrachloride (15 mM) or a solution of 2.24 g (14 mM) of bromine in 5 ml of methylenechloride were added dropwise. Separately, a 7-amino-3-nitrogen-containing heterocyclic thiomethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid (10 mM) and 2.02 g (20 mM) of triethylamine were dissolved in 20 ml of methylene chloride and cooled to -20.degree. C. Then, the above reaction mixture was quickly added dropwise to this cooled solution. In many instances, heat was evolved to bring the mixture to about 0.degree. C. The liquid temperature was increased gradually to room temperature, at which the mixture was stirred for 15 minutes. To the reaction mixture were added 150 ml of ethyl acetate together with 100 ml of 10% phosphoric acid and the mixture was vigorously stirred. The organic layer was separated, washed with water, dried and concentrated. The residue was loosened with ether.

To this mixed solution there were added 50 ml of ethyl ether and, after stirring, the supernatant fluid was discarded by decantation. Then, ethyl ether was added to the residue and the mixture was treated in the like manner. The above procedure was repeated a few times and the resultant powders were collected by filtration. The powders were dissolved in 20 ml of water and, after adjustment to pH 6.5, the solution was subjected to column chromatography using polystyrene resin (Amberlite XAD-2, Rohm and Haas Co.), development being carried out with water and 10% ethanol in the order mentioned. The fractions containing the desired product were collected, concentrated and lyophilized.

C. for one hour. After cooling, the reaction mixture was washed once with dichloromethane and the water layer was adjusted to pH 3.3 and stirred under ice-cooling for one hour. The precipitate was recovered by filtration, washed with water, methanol and acetone in the order mentioned and dried. By the above procedure there was obtained a 7-amino-3-nitrogen-containing heterocyclic thiomethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid. Where the object compound was water-soluble and did not precipitate out, the reaction mixture was adjusted to pH 3.3 and concentrated under reduced pressure to about 50 ml.

EXAMPLE 25
Production of 7-(4-bromo-2-hydroxyimino-3-oxobutyrylamino)-3-carbamoyloxymethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid (syn-isomer)
While a solution of 0.15 g of 7-(4-bromo-3-oxobutyrylamino)-3-carbamoyloxymethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid in 2 ml of acetic acid was stirred at room temperature, 0.03 g of sodium nitrite was added dropwise over a period of five minutes. Then, the mixture was further stirred for 20 minutes, after which time it was concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure. The resultant vitreous solid was applied to a Merck silica gel plate No. 5715 and developed with ethyl acetate-acetic acid-water (8:1:1).
