9-dihydro-9-O-alkyldesmycosin derivatives

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to 9-dihydro-9-O-alkyldesmycosin derivatives and salts thereof which are useful as an antimicrobial agent.
2. Description of the Background
Desmycosins (4'-demycarosyltylosins) do not produce a sufficiently high blood concentration by oral administration, and are thus incapable of providing a satisfactory infection curing effect. Various desmycosin derivatives have been prepared in an effort to find compounds which do not have this problem. For example, a desmycosin derivative having an improved bioavalability such as an improved blood concentration was prepared by modifying the 20-position aldehyde group of desmycosin [J. Med. Chem., 31, 1631-1641 (1988)]. There have been no published reports, however, dealing with modification of groups other than the aldehyde group in order to improve the in vivo efficiency of desmycosin. There is thus a strong desire for the development of a novel desmycosin derivative which can exhibit a satisfactory infection curing effect by oral administration.
In view of this situation, the present inventors have undertaken extensive studies concerning desmycosin derivatives. As a result the inventors found that 9-dihydro-9-O-alkyldesmycosin derivatives having a satisfactory infection curing effect by oral administration can be prepared by modifying the oxygen functional group bonding to position 9 of desmycosin. This finding has led to the completion of the present invention.

According to the above reaction scheme, a desmycosin derivative (II) is hydrogenated into Compound (VI) is reacted with an alcohol (R.sup.2 --OH) to produce Compound (VII). The hydroxyl group at position 2' or the hydroxyl groups at positions 2' and 4' of Compound (VII) is protected to produce Compound (VIII), which is oxidized, followed by removal of the hydroxyl protective group at position 2' or at positions 2' and 4' to give Compound (Ib) of the present invention.
Desmycosin derivatives (II) can be prepared in the same manner as in Process (1).
Hydrogenation of Compound (II) is carried out using a 2-4 equivalent of an alkaline-metal borohydride such as sodium borohydride, preferably in a lower alcohol such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, or the like, at a temperature of 0.degree. C. to room temperature for 0.5-2 hours.

C. to room temperature for 0.5--2 hours.
Removal of the hydroxyl protective group is carried out according to a conventional method, for example, by heating in a lower alcohol which may contain water.

REFERENCE EXAMPLE
Preparation of 9,20-tetrahydrodesmycosin
3.86 g (5.00 mmol) of desmycosin was dissolved in 40 ml of methanol. To the solution was added 0.38 g (10.0 mmol) of sodium borohydride and the mixture was stirred for 1 hour at 0.degree.-5.degree. C. Concentrated hydrochloric acid was slowly added to the reaction mixture to adjust to pH 7. The mixture was alkalinized by adding 50 ml of 7% aqueous ammonia and extracted three times with 50 ml of chloroform. The extract was washed three times with 50 ml of 7% aqueous ammonia and 50 ml of saturated brine. The organic layer was passed through a Watman 1 PS filter and concentrated under reduced pressure to produce 3.87 g (4.99 mmol) of 9,20-tetrahydrodesmycosin (yield: 99.7%). This product, however, was confirmed to be the mixture of 9R and 9S (23.4:76.6). A small amount of the product was subjected to preparative HPLC eluting with 0.05M aqueous NaH.sub.2 PO.sub.4 -methanol (35:65) to obtain a 9R isomer and a 9S isomer separately.
