Benzamidine derivatives

The present invention relates to new benzamidine derivatives corresponding to the following general formula: ##STR2## in which: A represents a linear or branched alkyl chain containing from 3 to 9 carbon atoms; and
X represents the oxygen atom or a direct bond.
If X represents a direct bond, the benzamidine is located in the para position relative to the alkanol group.
The present invention also comprises the pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds (I).
These compounds have an antimicrobial activity and they can be used, in particular, as antiseptic drugs for human or veterinary purposes or as disinfectants on inert surfaces. They can also be used as preservatives.
The compounds according to the invention are prepared from the nitrophenylalkanols or nitrophenoxyalkanols (IV). Catalytic hydrogenation gives the corresponding aniline derivatives (V) and the addition of sodium nitrite in an acid medium then gives the diazonium compounds. The action of cuprous cyanide subsequently leads to the benzonitrile derivatives (VI) by the Sandmeyer reaction. Finally, the amidines (I) are synthesized by a reaction known per se, which comprises the intermediate formation of an iminoester. ##STR3##
If X represents a direct bond, the nitrophenylalkanol (IV) is prepared from the phenylalkanol (II). The hydroxyl group is protected beforehand by acetylation using acetyl chloride. After nitration with fuming nitric acid, the alcohol is freed by reaction with a solution of hydrogen chloride in methanol.
The phenylalkanols (II) are commercially available where linear alcohols are concerned. Otherwise, they can be prepared by a variety of methods. For example, the secondary phenyl alcohols are prepared from phenylacetaldehyde by reaction with a magnesium derivative followed by hydrolysis: ##STR4## R.sub.1 : alkyl having 1 to 8 carbons.
The primary branched phenylalkanols are obtained from benzyl cyanide: ##STR5##
After reaction with sodium hydride in an anhydrous medium, it is possible to add an alkyl halide, for example an alkyl bromide, to give a symmetrical dialkylated phenylacetonitrile. This compound is converted to the acid by reaction with a base in an alcoholic medium, followed by acidification.
Reaction with thionyl chloride and then with ethyl alcohol in an anhydrous medium, in the presence of a catalyst, for example pyridine or dimethylaminopyridine, makes it possible to obtain the ethyl ester (VIII). The corresponding alcohol (II)" is then prepared by reduction with a mixed anhydride in an anhydrous solvent.
If X represents oxygen, the nitrophenoxyalkanol (IV) is prepared from nitrophenol (III). Reaction of an alkyl dihalide with (III) in a basic medium makes it possible to obtain a nitrophenoxyalkyl halide (IX). This product is acetylated in an acid medium and (IV) is then freed by saponification.

The examples which follow illustrate the invention without however restricting it. If the product obtained is in the form of an oil, it is characterized by its nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrum. This is recorded at 60 MHz in deuterochloroform, hexamethyldisiloxane being taken as the internal standard.
The following abbreviations are used to describe the spectrum:
S: singlet
D: doublet
T: triplet
Q: quadruplet
M: multiplet
J: coupling constant.

The bactericidal activity of the products according to the invention was studied on different strains by the method described below:
A bacterial inoculum is brought into contact for a limited time with different dilutions of the product to be tested. At the end of the contact period, an aliquot of the mixture of bacterial suspension and product is deposited on the surface of a gelose culture medium containing a neutralizer of the antibacterial activity of the product.
The bactericidal concentration selected is the minimum concentration of product beyond which the bacteria no longer grow. This concentration is expressed in .mu.g/ml.
The bacterial strains chosen for the study are:
1--Escherichia coli CNCM 54125;
2--Capsular Klebsiella pneumoniae R030;
3--Pseudomonas aeruginosa CNCM A22;
4--Streptococcus faecalis CNCM 5855;
5--Staphylococcus aureus CNCM 53154.
The second strain is kept on a Worgel Fergusson medium and the others on Tryptic Soy Agar-Difco (TSA).
After 24 hours of culture at 37.degree. C., the microbial growth is harvested using glass beads and 10 ml of a diluent containing 1 g of tryptone and 8.5 g of sodium chloride in 1000 ml of distilled water. The suspension formed is stirred and the percentage transmission of light at 620 nm is measured with a spectrophotometer:
Strain 1: 70%;
Strain 2: 80%;
Strain 3: 70%;
Strain 4: 60%;
Strain 5: 60%.
The bacterial inoculum corresponds to a suspension whose concentration is 1/20th that of this bacterial suspension.
Plates containing cups receive different dilutions of the product to be studied. These dilutions of the product to be studied are brought into contact with the different bacterial suspensions using a Steers-type multiple site inoculator. After a contact time of 20 minutes, aliquots are transferred with this inoculator to the surface of a gelose medium (TSA) placed in Petri dishes, containing an activity neutralizer, namely 20 g of lubrol W, 2.5 g of Tween 80 and 2.5 g of sodium thiosulfate in 1000 ml of TSA (Difco). A control for the efficacy of the neutralizer is prepared for each product studied by depositing, on the surface of the culture medium, an aliquot of the dilution of the product to be studied. After drying, the corresponding inoculum is deposited in the same place. An inoculum control is prepared on gelose medium with and without neutralizer. The results are assessed after incubation for 48 hours at 37.degree. C.
The results are collated in Table 2 below.

The results show that the products according to the invention have a comparable level of activity over the whole range of bacterial strains tested.
Compared with phenylethyl alcohol, which is a bactericidal product employed both as an antiseptic and as a preservative, the products according to the invention have a higher average level of activity and are moreover soluble in water, which makes them much easier to use, particularly in galenical formulations.
The tolerance of the products according to the invention was studied on guinea-pigs. The animals are shaved on either side of the medial line of the back and shaving is repeated every 2 days. Groups of 6 receive 0.2 ml of an aqueous or alcoholic solution of the product according to the invention on the shaved area. If the products are in alcoholic solution, a control group of animals receives alcohol on one side.
To study the preliminary skin tolerance, the treatment is applied once a day, 6 days out of 7, for 3 weeks. The observations on the skin concern the presence of erythema, skin eruption or hyperkeratosis, the intensity of which is graded according to a fixed scale.
The skin sensitization test is carried out on the same animals after two weeks of rest. The treatment lasts one week and is identical to the previous treatment. The evaluation is made according to the same criteria and the same scale as those used for the local tolerance.
The products according to the invention were also investigated to determine whether they had a phototoxic or photoallergic effect on guinea-pigs. The technique used is that of J. UNKOVIC, G. MAZUE and J. GIRARD, Sciences et Techniques de l'Animal de laboratoire, volume 8 (3), 149-160 (1983). This is an adaptation of the techniques described by L. C. HARBER et al., Arch. Dermatol., 1967, volume 96, pp 646-656, and L. J. VINSON et al., J. Soc. Cosm. Chem., 1966, volume 17, pp 123-130.
None of the products studied showed poor tolerance, a sensitizing effect or a phototoxic or photoallergic effect on guinea-pigs.
The products according to the invention, which have a good antimicrobial activity and are well tolerated, can be used in a number of ways as antiseptics, preservatives or disinfectants for human purposes, in cosmetics and therapy, or veterinary purposes or in the food crop sector.
In particular, they can be used as antiseptics in preparations intended for therapy, for example in the treatment of impetigo, acne, infected forms of dermatosis, infected open wounds, closed infections such as furuncles, felon, impetiginous scabies, etc. It is also possible to envisage their use for preventive purposes, for example for the preparation of the surgical area or the preparation of the surgeon's or attendants' hands.
The products according to the invention can be used for veterinary purposes either as antiseptics (for example in the prevention of mammitis) or as disinfectants (disinfection of the equipment, the stalls or stables, etc.), and also in the food crop sector.
Finally, their good tolerance and low toxicity enable them to be used as preservatives not only in the fields of pharmacy and cosmetology but also in the food crop sector.
Different galenical formulations of the products according to the invention can be prepared according to the chosen use.
