Abstract
7.beta.-(2-Cyano-aliphatic acylamino)-7.alpha.-methoxy-3-heterocyclic thiomethyl-1-dethia-1-oxa-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acids and salts or pharmacologically acceptable esters generically represented by the following formula are potent antibacterials and esters are prospective oral drugs: ##STR1## (wherein A is a lower alkyl, lower alkenyl or lower alkynyl group;B is a hydrogen atom, salt forming atom, salt forming group or physiologically hydrolyzable ester group; andHet is a heterocyclic group).
Description

This invention relates to an aliphatic acylaminooxacephalosporin compound represented by the following formula (I): ##STR2## (wherein
A is a lower alkyl, lower alkenyl or lower alkynyl;
B is a hydrogen atom, salt forming atom or group or biochemically hydrolyzable ester group or carboxy protecting group conventional in the art; and
Het is a heterocyclic group)
More specifically, this invention relates to a biochemically hydrolyzable ester included in the above aliphatic acylaminooxacephalosporin compound (I).
Up to now, a number of oxacephalosporins have been synthesized. However, none of them was suitable for oral use. Then, the inventors looked for a compound capable of being administered orally and have found the esters represented by above formula (I) to show practical antibacterial effect.
In above formula (I), the lower alkyl represented by A can preferably be a methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, pentyl, cyclopentyl, neopentyl, hexyl, octyl or isooctyl, especially C.sub.1 to C.sub.8 -, particularly C.sub.1 to C.sub.4 -alkyl group.
The lower alkenyl group represented by A can preferably be a vinyl, allyl, butenyl or pentadienyl, especially C.sub.2 to C.sub.8 -, particularly C.sub.3 to C.sub.4 -alkenyl.
The lower alkynyl group represented by A can preferably be ethynyl, propargyl or pentynyl, especially C.sub.2 to C.sub.8 -, particularly C.sub.3 to C.sub.4 -alkynyl.
As stated above, the A group may have a straight, branched or cyclic nucleus. Preferable A group for oral absorption has C.sub.1 to C.sub.3 - and for antibacterial activity has a straight C.sub.1 to C.sub.4 -chain. Those having A as hydrogen are not practical antibacterials.
Biochemically hydrolyzable ester B.sup.1 included within the scope of the definition of B can preferably be the acetoxymethyl ester, acetoxy ethyl ester, propionyloxyethyl ester, butyryloxyethyl ester, pivaloyloxymethyl ester, heptanoyloxypropyl ester group or like straight or branched chain C.sub.2 to C.sub.8 -alkanoyloxy-C.sub.1 to C.sub.5 -alkyl ester group; methoxycarbonyloxyethyl ester, ethoxycarbonyloxyethyl ester, propoxycarbonyloxypropyl ester, butoxycarbonyloxyethyl ester, or like 1-acyloxyalkyl ester group, especially C.sub.1 to C.sub.5 -alkoxycarbonyloxy-C.sub.1 to C.sub.4 -alkyl ester group; cyclic 1-acyloxyaralkyl ester group e.g. phthalidyl ester group; or other conventional ester forming group hydrolyzable physiologically or by cell enzyme. One type of especially preferable ester group is that difficultly hydrolyzed in the digestive organs and absorbed to elevate blood level up to an antibacterially effective level, and that hydrolyzed until attacking bacteria.
When the B group in the formula (I) is a hydrogen atom, light metal atom or salt forming group, the resulting acid and salts are parenteral antibacterials and at the same time, intermediates for synthesizing esterified Compound (I). Light metal atom can be lithium, sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, aluminum or like atoms and representative salt forming group can be tertiary ammonium, quaternary ammonium or mono or bicyclic aromatic base group. Preferable among these are pharmacologically acceptable salts or that having a base part sufficiently strong for the esterification.
Heterocyclic groups represented by Het are monocyclic and may contain 1 to 4 heteroatoms selected from nitrogen, sulfur and oxygen. These can optionally be substituted by alkyl, haloalkyl, hydroxyalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, carboxyalkyl, conventionally protected carboxyalkyl, carbamoylalkyl, N-alkylcarbamoylalkyl, dialkylaminoalkyl, sulfamoylalkyl, N-alkylsulfamoylalkyl or other C.sub.1 to C.sub.6 -substituent or hydroxy, oxo or halogen. Carboxy protection may be mono- or dicyclic aralkyl or a kind of the B.sup.1 group. Especially preferable are triazolyl, tetrazolyl, thiadiazolyl oxadiazolyl, thiazolyl, oxazolyl, isoxazolyl, triazinyl, pyridyl, pyrimidyl or like groups. As stated above, these may optionally be substituted by alkyl e.g. methyl, ethyl, isobutyl or other C.sub.1 to C.sub.5 -alkyl; substituted alkyl e.g. hydroxymethyl, carboxymethyl, dimethylaminoethyl or other C.sub.1 to C.sub.5 substituted alkyl; oxo; hydroxy; halogen or like substituents.
The 7.alpha.-methoxy group prevents loss of activity due to some .beta.-lactamase. The cyano group in the side chain activates the effect against gram-negative bacteria. The A group enables enteral administration.
7.beta.-Cyanoacetamidocephalosporanic acid disclosed in South African Pat. No. 6950/1965 has been in the drug market, but its pivaloyloxymethyl ester does not show oral absorption sufficient as clinical drugs.
7.beta.-Cyanoacetamido-1-dethia-1-oxacephalosporanic acid suggested in Japanese Published Patent Application (Kokai) 49-133594 is a weak antibacterial even when 7.alpha.-methoxy is added it does not prove of practical value as an antibacterial.
Surprisingly, the introduction of an aliphatic group into the .alpha.-position of the cyanoacetamido side chain of the compounds of the prior yields the said Compound (I) resulting in exceeding antibacterial activity coupled with enteric absorption to show prospective medical availability as oral drugs.
The said Compounds (I) are strong antibacterials against Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus haemophylis, Streptococcus pneumonia or other gram-positive bacteria and against Escherichia coli or those of genera Klebsiella, Proteus of indol-positive and negative strains, Serratia or like gram-negative strains. They are effective also against clinical anaerobic bacteria.
Outstanding clinical effects of the Compounds (I) can be observed when they are used to treat or prevent e.g. urinary tract infection, respiratory tract infection, dermatitis, abdominal infection, pyelitis, osteomyelitis, or meningitis caused by sensitive bacteria at a daily oral dose of 2 to 8 grams. The Compound (I) can be used by other parenteral route e.g. intravenous or intramuscular injection or rectal application. The free acid or its salt of Compounds (I) can be used for parenteral administration or for synthesizing the ester Compounds (I). The parenteral case requires generally a daily dose of e.g. 0.1 to 3 g. for injection and much lower dose for topical application.
The Compounds (I) can be formulated to make oral preparations combined with a bulking agent, binding agent, disgrating agent, fillers, lubricant, coating agent, pH-controlling agent, solvent or the like conventional additive to make tablets, capsules, granules or other oral drugs, or parenteral preparation e.g. vials, ampoules, suppositories, or dermatological agents.
Compounds (I) can be synthesized by introducing the B group, side chain acyl group or cyano group, all applying conventional procedures in the art.
(a) Introduction of the B.sup.1 group:
Compounds (I) can be prepared by reacting the corresponding carboxylic acid or its salt (II) and an esterifying reagent (III) for introducing the B.sup.1 group. ##STR3## (wherein
A and Het are as defined above;
B.sup.1 is a biochemically hydrolyzable ester group;
M is a hydrogen atom, salt-forming atom or salt forming group; and
X is a leaving group)
The salt forming atom shown by M can preferably be e.g. a lithium, sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, aluminum or like light metal atom and the salt forming group shown by M can be e.g. aliphatic or aromatic lower tertiary ammonium, quaternary ammonium, mono- or dicyclic aromatic base, etc.
The leaving group X can preferably be halogen, sulfonyloxy, lower alkanoyloxy, hydroxy or the like group conventional for acylation in the art.
The reaction is carried out as a solution in an industrially available inert polar solvent for dissolving the carboxylic acid (II) or its salt such as nitrile, amide, sulfoxide, ketone, ester, ether or like solvent especially acetonitrile, N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, formamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, acetone, ethyl acetate, diglyme or dioxane. Reaction temperature usually is between -20.degree. C. to 100.degree. C. If required, a condensing agent, accelerating agent or like is added to promote the esterification.
Preferably, 1 to 2 equivalents of the esterifying reagent (III) is used for the carboxylic acid salt (II) and allowed to react at 0.degree. C. to 35.degree. C. The carboxylic acid (II) is converted to its salt and then treated with the acylating reagent (III) as described above. The acylation completes usually in from 1 to 3 hours if treated as above to afford the objective compounds in 50% to 90% yield. This is specific for introducing the B.sup.1 group but other equivalent and conventional conditions may be available for the same purpose.
(b) Introduction of the side chain:
Compounds (I) can be produced by amidating an amino compound (IV) with an acylating reagent for introducing the .alpha.-cyanoaliphatic acyl group. ##STR4## (wherein A, B, Het and X are as defined before)
The amino compound (IV) can be produced e.g. by a method suggested in Japanese Published Patent Application (Kokai) 49-133594.
This step may be carried out using a free acid (Compound (V) with X as OH) in the presence of e.g. N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, 1-hydroxybenzotriazole or 1-ethoxycarbonyl-2-ethoxy-1,2-dihydroquinoline, carbonyldiimidazole or other condensing reagent.
Alternatively, acid halides, symmetric acid anhydride or mixed acid anhydride (Compound (V) with X as halogen or acyloxy) can be used in the presence of an acid scavenger e.g. an aromatic base (pyridine, collidine, quinoline, etc.) or inorganic base e.g. sodium carbonate, potassium hydrogen carbonate, trialkylamine, oxirane or like reagents.
Further, other types of acylating reagents known in the art, e.g. reactive esters and reactive amides are available as the reagent (V) for introducing the side chain according to conventional methods. Preactivation e.g. silylation or phosphinylation of the amino group or pretreatment to form some acylate, imidate or Schiff base prior to the treatment with said acylating reagent, enzymatic acylation with an acylating reagent (V) having lower alkoxy as X in the presence of a bacterial or fungal amidase in an aqueous medium; or other conventional amidation in the art can also be available as equivalent alternatives.
These reactions are carried out at a temperature of -50.degree. C. to 100.degree. C. in an inert solvent e.g. aromatic hydrocarbon, halohydrocarbon, ester, ether or ketone solvent by conventional ways. Acid halides may be used in an aqueous solvent in the presence of a base.
Preferably, 1 to 2 mole equivalents of the acylating reagent (V) may be used for the amino compound (IV) and let react at -20.degree. C. to 30.degree. C. for 1/6 to 2 hours to give Compound (I) in 80 to 90% yield.
(c) Introduction of the cyano group:
Compounds (VI) having an aliphatic carboxylic amido side chain having a functional group replaceable with a cyano group can afford the objective Compound (I) as a result of the substitution with a cyano group, according to the following reaction scheme. ##STR5## (wherein
A, B and Het are as defined before; and
Y is a functional group changeable into cyano)
Compound (IV) can be prepared e.g. by the acylation of Compound (IV). The Y group convertible into cyano can be halogen, sulfonyloxy, carbamoyl or the like. The conversion can be effected, when Y is halogen or sulfonyloxy, with alkali metal cyanide or alkaline earth metal cyanide in a said polar solvent at room temperature or when Y is carbamoyl, with a dehydrating agent e.g. phosphorus pentachloride in the presence of an acid scavenger preferably in an aprotic solvent.
Compounds (I) can alternatively be prepared by such conventional routes as methoxylation at the 7.alpha.-position e.g. by the action of lithium methoxide and tertiary butyl hypohalite at -40.degree. C. and then treating with sodium hydrogen sulfite; alkylation at the 2-position in the 7.beta.-side chain of the corresponding 7.beta.-cyanoacetamido-7.alpha.-methoxy-3-heterocyclic thiomethyl-1-dethia-1-oxa-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid esters with e.g. alkyl halide or alkenyl halide in acetone containing potassium carbonate at room temperature or by the action of lithium N,N-diisopropylamide and alkyl halide in tetrahydrofuran or dimethylformamide at -20.degree. C.; substitution of e.g. halogen at the 3-position of the corresponding 3-halomethyl-3-halo-1-dethia-1-oxacepham compound in dichloromethane and water in the presence of tetra-N-butylammonium bromide and sodium hydrogen carbonate and HetSH at room temperature; the salt formation by e.g. neutralizing Compound (I) as carboxylic acid and alkali metal alkanoate in a polar solvent e.g. alcohol or methylethyl ketone; or the like methods.
Above reactions can be done at -50.degree. C. to 100.degree. C. and can be checked by e.g. chromatography. The products thus prepared are isolated by extraction, washing, drying, concentration, crystallization or other conventional methods and can be purified by e.g. absorption, chromatography, recrystallization or other conventional methods.
Following Examples illustrate the present invention. The products are epimeric mixture in terms of .alpha.-asymmetric carbon in the side chain. Under careful chromatographic separation from, the epimers can be separated each other as R- and S-epimers.
Throughout the Examples, NMR signals are represented by showing chemical shift in numeral in ppm, type of signals in alphabet character, Coupling constant in parentheses if any, and integral of signals to show number of hydrogens. Abbreviations for the groups in the following reaction scheme include the followings: Ph is phenyl, Tetr is 1-methyl-5-tetrazolyl, Tdz is 1,3,4-thiadiazolyl, TdzMe is 2-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-5-yl, POM is pivaloyloxymethyl, and ECE is 1-(ethoxycarbonyloxy)ethyl. Other abbreviations have conventional meanings.

EXPERIMENT 2 (PROTECTION TEST)
To each group consisting of 5 to 10 mice is challenged 2 to 3.times.10.sup.5 Escherichia coli EC-14 in 5% mucin intraperitoneally. After 1 hour and 5 hours, a suspension of the ester (1) in the foregoing experiment in 5% acacia solution is administered enterally using a tube into stomach. From the survival rate after 7 days, ED.sub.50 of the drug is calculated, and the value in mg/kg is interpreted as the corresponding carboxylic acid.
For using as control, it is necessary to use the effect of the corresponding carboxylic acid. However, the acid is hardly absorbed orally only up to 3 to 6% of subcutaneous injection and does not allow the estimation. Then instead, the ED.sub.50 value of the corresponding carboxylic acid (2) on subcutaneous injection is assayed and this is used to evaluate the enteral absorption of the ester (1).
The control value of ED.sub.50 for the carboxylic acid (2) is estimated as follows: To each group consisting of 5 to 10 mice challenged by Escherichia coli EC-14 intraperitoneally as in the case of oral experiment above is injected a solution of the carboxylic acid (2) in 0.7% aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate subcutaneously after 1 and 5 hours after the challenge. The ED.sub.50 value is calculated from the survival rate from 7 days and expressed in mg/kg value. The results are listed in Table B.
