OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION
It is an object of the invention to provide the novel aminoglycosides of formula I and their non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts and a novel process and novel intermediates for their preparation.
It is another object of the invention to provide novel antibiotic compositions and a novel method of combatting bacterial infections in warm-blooded animals.
These and other objects and advantages of the invention will become obvious from the following detailed description.
THE INVENTION
The novel aminoglycosides of the invention are selected from the group consisting of desoxystreptamines of the formula ##STR2## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and hydroxyl with at least one of them being hydrogen and their non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts. The symbol (S) expresses a steric configuration of organic compounds as defined by Cahn et al [Experientia, Vol. 12 (1956), p. 81-94].
Preferred compounds of formula I and their salts are 1'0-[2,6-diamino-2,3,6-tridesoxy-.alpha.,D-ribohexopyranosyl-(1.fwdarw.4)]-0-[3-methylamino-3,4,6-tridesoxy-.alpha.,D-xylohexopyranosyl-(1.fwdarw.6)]-N.sup.1 -[2(S)-hydroxy-1-oxo-4-amino]butyl-2-desoxy-D-streptamine and its sulfate, 1'0-[2,6-diamino-2,4,6-tridesoxy-.alpha.,D-xylohexopyranosyl-(1.fwdarw.4)]-0-[3-methylamino-3,4,6-tridesoxy-.alpha.,D-xylohexopyranosyl-(1.fwdarw.6)]-N.sup.1 -[2(S)-hydroxy-1-oxo-4-amino]butyl-2-desoxy-D-streptamine and its sulfate and 1'0-[2,6-diamino-2,3,4,6-tetradesoxy-.alpha.,D-erthrohexopyranosyl-(1.fwdarw.4)]-0-[3-methylamino-3,4,6-tridesoxy-.alpha.,D-xylohexopyranosyl)-(1.fwdarw.6)]-N.sup.1 -[2(S)-hydroxy-1-oxo-4-amino]butyl-2-desoxy-D-streptamine and its sulfate.
Examples of suitable acids for the non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts are inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, nitric acid, sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid and organic acids such as acetic acid, formic acid, benzoic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, succinic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, oxalic acid, benzylic acid, glyoxylic acid, aspartic acid, alkane sulfonic acids and arylsulfonic acids.
The novel process of the invention for the preparation of compounds of formula I comprises reacting a compound of the formula ##STR3## wherein R.sub.1.sup.40 and R.sub.2.sup.' are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and benzoxy with at least one being hydrogen with a compound of the formula ##STR4## in the presence of an alkaline agent to obtain a mixture of .alpha. and .beta. anomeres of the formulae ##STR5## recovering the product of formula IV from the mixture and subjecting the latter to hydrolysis in an alkaline medium in an organic solvent to obtain a compound of the formula ##STR6## reacting the latter with hydrogen in the presence of a catayst to obtain a compound of the formula ##STR7## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 have the above definition and subjecting the latter to hydrolysis in an alkaline medium to obtain a compound of formula I which may be salified with an organic or inorganic acid to form the non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt.
The preferred alkaline agent for the reaction of the compounds of formulae II and III is diisopropylethylamine but other tertiary bases such as triethylamine may be used. The reaction is effected in the presence of a tetraloweralkyl quaternary ammonium base such as tetraethyl ammonium bromide in an organic solvent such as dichloroethane or dimethylformamide, but preferably methylene chloride.
The separation of the compound of formulae IV and IV may be effected by known methods, preferably by chromatography over silica gel although equally useful is chromatography with alumina, cellulose or magnesium silicate or by fractional crystallization or counter-current extraction. For these separations, different solvents or mixtures of aqueous or pure organic solvents may be used.
The alkaline agent for the hydrolysis of the compound of formula IV is preferably sodium hydroxide but also useful are potassium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide or barium hydroxide and the organic solvent is preferably a mixture of an alkanol such as ethanol or methanol and methylene chloride or dimethylformamide. The hydrogenation catalyst is preferably palladium but other catalysts such as Raney nickel, palladium salts or platinum derivatives may be used and the preferred solvent is an aqueous acid solvent such as a mixture of acetic acid or propionic acid and water.
The alkaline agent for the hydrolysis of a compound of formula VI is preferably potassium hydroxide but also useful is sodium hydroxide. The salification of the compounds of formula I may be effected by usual methods by total or partial neutralisation of the five amine functions of the products of formula I with the desired acid in a solvent or mixture of solvents such as water, ether, methanol or acetone.
The wavy line indicating the substituents on the carbon atom in the 1-position of the ring of compounds of formula III indicates that the substituents may be in the .alpha.- or .beta.-positions of the ring and the compound may be in the form of its .alpha.- or .beta.-anomeres or mixtures thereof.
The novel anitibiotic compositions of the invention are comprised of an antibiotically effective amount of a least one compound of formula I and its non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts and an inert pharmaceutical carrier or excipient. The compositions may be in the form of tablets, dragees, gelules, granules, suppositories, injectable solutions or suspensions, pomades, cremes or gels.
Examples of suitable excipients are talc, arabic gum, lactose, starch, magnesium stearate, cacao butter, aqueous and non-aqueous vehicles, fatty bodies of animal or vegetable origin, paraffinic derivatives, glycols, diverse wetting agents, dispersants or emulsifiers and preservatives.
The compositions of the invention possess a very interesting antibiotic activity against both gram positive bacteria such as staphylococcus, streptococcus and especially penicillin resistant staphylococcus and gram negative bacteria, especially coliform bacteria and Klebsiella. The compositions therefore are useful for the treatment of staphylococcia such as staphylococcal septicemia, staphylococcia malignant on the face, cutaneous staphylococcia, pyodermatitis, septic or suppurantes sores, anthrax, phlegmons, eresipels, acute primitive or post-influenza staphylococcia, bronchopneumonia, pulmonary suppurations or collibacillosis. They are also useful for treating infections of Klebsiella, Enterobacter and Pseudomonas.
The novel method of the invention for treating bacterial infections in warm-blooded animals, including humans, comprises administering to warm-blooded animals a bactericidally effective amount of at least one compound of formula I or a non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof. The compounds may be administered orally, rectally, parenterally or topically to the skin or mucous membrane. The usual daily dose is depending on the compound and the method of administration. It may be a 2 mg to 20 mg/kg per day with the product of example 2 when administered parenterally.
The novel intermediates of the invention include the compounds of formulae IV, V and VI.
The starting compounds of formula II may be prepared by the process of French Pat. No. 2,202,078 and the compounds of formula III may be prepared by treating 1-0-acetyl-2-0-benzyl-3-(N-carbethoxy-N-methyl)-amino-3,4,6-tridesoxy-D-xylohexopyranose described in French Pat.

After incubating 18, 24 or 48 hours at 37.degree. C. in an oven, the inhibition of bacterial growth was determined by transillumination to determine the minimum inhibiting concentration (MIC) of the product expressed in .mu.g/ml of base. The results are reported in the following Tables.
