Abstract
7.beta.- 2-(aminothiazolyl and thiadiazolyl)-2-oxyiminoacetamido!cephalosporin derivatives having a 3- N-(optionally substituted) aminopyridiniumthiomethyl! substituent have antibacterial activity and are of use in antibacterial therapy. Processes for the preparation of such cephalosporins plus intermediates for use in the preparation thereof, including N-(optionally substituted)amino-thiopyridones, are also described.
Description

This invention relates to novel .beta.-lactam containing compounds, in particular to a novel class of cephalosporin derivatives, their preparation and their use. These compounds have antibacterial properties and are therefore of use in the treatment of bacterial infections in humans and animals caused by a wide range of organisms.
7.beta.- 2-(2-amino-4-thiazolyl)-2-oxyiminoacetamido!cephalosporin derivatives have been reported, of which a particular subgroup are those comprising at the 3-position a substituent --CH.sub.2 S-Het in which `Het` is an optionally substituted heterocyclic group. EP-A-0 248 645 (Tanabe Seiyaku) discloses inter alia a class of such compounds in which `Het` is a pyridinium ring (bonded through a ring carbon atom), optionally substituted on the pyridinium nitrogen by acylamino and exemplified by an N-acetyl derivative, in combination with a 2-oxopyrrolidin-3-yl!-oxyimino substituent.
In addition, EP-A-0 153 709 (Meiji Seika Kaisha) discloses generically another class of such compounds wherein `Het` is a bicyclic heterocyclic system comprising a pyridinium ring (bonded through a ring carbon atom) fused to a carbocyclic ring and which may be substituted on the pyridinium nitrogen by an amino group, optionally substituted by alkyl. No exemplification thereof is however provided.
It has now been found that the range of substituents that can be accommodated on the pyridinium nitrogen may be substantially expanded, to give a class of cephalosporin derivatives that possess high antibacterial activity.

The antibiotic compounds according to the invention may be formulated for administration in any convenient way for use in human or veterinary medicine, according to techniques and procedures per se known in the art with reference to other antibiotics, and the invention therefore includes within its scope a pharmaceutical composition comprising an antibiotic compound according to the present invention such as, for example a pharmaceutically acceptable compound of formula (I) or a salt or in vivo hydrolysable ester thereof above together with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient. The compositions may be formulated for administration by any suitable route, such as oral or parenteral, or by topical application. Normally administration will be via a parenteral route. The compositions may be in the form of tablets, capsules, powders, granules, lozenges, creams or liquid preparations, such as oral or sterile parenteral solutions or suspensions. Tablets and capsules for oral administration may be in unit dose presentation form, and may contain conventional excipients such as binding agents, for example syrup, acacia, gelatin, sorbitol, tragacanth, or polyvinylpyrollidone; fillers, for example lactose, sugar, maize-starch, calcium phosphate, sorbitol or glycine; tabletting lubricants, for example magnesium stearate, talc, polyethylene glycol or silica; disintegrants, for example potato starch; or acceptable wetting agents such as sodium lauryl sulphate. The tablets may be coated according to methods well known in normal pharmaceutical practice. Oral liquid preparations may be in the form of, for example, aqueous or oily suspensions, solutions, emulsions, syrups or elixirs, or may be presented as a dry product for reconstitution with water or other suitable vehicle before use. Such liquid preparations may contain conventional additives such as suspending agents, for example sorbitol, methyl cellulose, glucose syrup, gelatin, hydroxyethylcellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, aluminium stearate gel or hydrogenated edible fats; emulsifying agents, for example lecithin, sorbitan monooleate, or acacia; non-aqueous vehicles (which may include edible oils), for example almond oil, oily esters, glycerine, propylene glycol, or ethyl alcohol; preservatives, for example methyl or propyl p-hydroxybenzoate or sorbic acid; and, if desired conventional flavouring or colouring agents. Suppositories will contain conventional suppository base, eg cocoa-butter or other glyceride.
For parenteral administration, fluid unit dosage forms are prepared utilising the compound and a sterile vehicle, water being preferred. The compound, depending on the vehicle and concentration used, can be either suspended or dissolved in the vehicle. In preparing solutions the compound can be dissolved in water for injection and filter sterilised before filling into a suitable vial or ampoule and sealing. Advantageously, agents such as local anaesthetic, preservative and buffering agents can be dissolved in the vehicle. To enhance the stability, the composition can be frozen after filling into the vial and the water removed under vacuum. The dry lyophilised powder is then sealed in the vial and an accompanying vial of water for injection may be supplied to reconstitute the liquid prior to use. Parenteral suspensions are prepared in substantially the same manner except that the compound is suspended in the vehicle instead of being dissolved and sterilisation cannot be accomplished by filtration. The compound can be sterilised by exposure to ethylene oxide before suspending in the sterile vehicle. Advantageously, a surfactant or wetting agent is included in the composition to facilitate uniform distribution of the compound.
The composition may contain from 0.1% to 99.5% by weight, preferably from 10-60% by weight, of the active material, depending on the method of administration. Where the compositions comprise dosage units, each unit will preferably contain from 50-500 mg of the active ingredient. The dosage as employed for adult human treatment will preferably range from 100 mg to 12 g per day for an average adult patient (body weight 70 kg), for instance 1500 mg per day, depending on the route and frequency of administration. Such dosages correspond to approximately 1.5 to 170 mg/kg per day. Suitably the dosage is from 1 to 6g per day.
The daily dosage is suitably given by administering a compound of the invention several times in a 24-hour period. Typically, 250 mg is administered 4 times a day although, in practice, the dosage and frequency of administration which will be most suitable for an individual patient will vary with the age, weight and response of the patients, and there will be occasions when the physician will choose a higher or lower dosage and a different frequency of administration. Such dosage regimens are within the scope of this invention.
No toxicological effects are indicated when a pharmaceutically acceptable compound of the invention of formula (I) or a salt or in vivo hydrolysable ester thereof is administered in the above mentioned dosage range.

A further advantageous composition comprises a pharmaceutically acceptable antibiotic compound of the formula (I) or a salt or an in vivo hydrolysable ester thereof and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient together with a .beta.-lactamase inhibitor of formula (IV) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or in vivo hydrolysable ester thereof: ##STR15## wherein B is hydrogen, halogen or a group of formula: ##STR16## in which R.sup.15 and R.sup.16 are the same or different and each is hydrogen, (C.sub.1-6)alkoxycarbonyl, or carboxy or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
Further suitable .beta.-lactamase inhibitors include 6-alkylidene penems as described in EP-A-0 041 768 and EP-A-0 154 132 (to Beecham Group plc).
Further suitable .beta.-lactamase inhibitors include 6.beta.-bromopenicillanic acid and salts and in vivo hydrolysable esters thereof and 6.beta.-iodopenicillanic acid and salts and in vivo hydrolysable esters thereof.
Such compositions of this invention comprising a .beta.-lactamase inhibitor are formulated in conventional manner.
The present invention also includes a method of treating bacterial infections in humans and animals which method comprises administering a therapeutically effective amount of an antibiotic compound of the present invention of the formula (Ia) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or in vivo hydrolysable ester thereof.
In a further aspect, the present invention also provides for the use of a compound of formula (Ia) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or an in vivo hydrolysable ester thereof for the manufacture of a medicament for treating bacterial infection.
The pharmaceutically acceptable antibiotic compounds of the present invention of formula (Ia) or salts or in vivo hydrolysable esters thereof are active against a broad range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and may be used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections including those in immunocompromised patients.
Amongst many other uses, the pharmaceutically acceptable compounds of the invention of formula (Ia) or salts or in vivo hydrolysable esters thereof are of value in the treatment of respiratory tract and urinary tract infections in humans and may also be used to treat mastitis in cattle.
A particular advantage of the antibacterially active compounds of this invention is their stability to .beta.-lactamase enzymes and they are therefore effective against .beta.-lactamase producing organisms.
The present invention further provides a process for the preparation of a compound of formula (I) which process comprises treating a compound of formula (V): ##STR17## wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, Y.sup.1, and Y.sup.3 are as hereinbefore defined, and R.sup.17 is a leaving group; and wherein any reactive groups may be protected;
with a thiopyridone compound of formula (VI): ##STR18## wherein the nucleus: ##STR19## hereinafter referred to as the ring Q.sup.2 is such that it is converted to the nucleus of the group Y.sup.2 (as hereinbefore defined) in situ during the course of the reaction;
and R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 are as hereinbefore defined; with the proviso that when R.sup.17 is an acyloxy group --CO.sub.2 R.sup.3 must be in the free acid form or a salt thereof; and thereafter if necessary carrying out one or more of the following steps:
i) converting each or any one of the groups R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 into a different group R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 ;
ii) removing any protecting groups; or
iii) converting the product into a salt.
At the end of the process described hereinabove and in other processes for the preparation of the compound of formula (I) described hereinbelow it may be necessary to remove protecting groups. Deprotection may be carried out by any convenient method known in the art that does not cause unwanted side reactions to occur to any appreciable extent.
Suitable leaving groups R.sup.17 include halo such as chloro, bromo or iodo or an acyloxy group such as, for example, the acetoxy group. Preferred groups for R.sup.17 are chloro and iodo.
This reaction is desirably conducted in a solvent. For example, use can be made of water, or of organic solvents inert to the starting compounds, such as dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, dioxane, acetone, dichloromethane, 1,2-dichloroethane, acetonitrile, dimethylsulfoxide or tetrahydrofuran, or mixtures thereof. The reaction temperature and time depend, among other factors, upon the starting compounds and solvent to be employed but generally the reaction is carried out at a selected temperature within the range of 0.degree. to 100.degree. C. for a selected time of a few minutes to several days.
Compounds of formula (V) wherein R.sup.17 is acyloxy may be prepared by analogy with procedures described in Bucourt R., et al, Tetrahedron, 1978, 34, 2233.
Compound of formula (V) wherein R.sup.17 is halo may be prepared from readily available starting materials by conventional methodology, for instance, by the coupling of compounds of formula (IX) and formula (XI), as hereinafter defined, wherein R.sup.17 is halo.
Preferred compounds of the formula (V) include salts and esters in which R.sup.3 is as hereinbefore defined and in particular in which R.sup.3 is diphenylmethyl, p-methoxybenzyl or trimethylsilyl.
Compounds of formula (VI) may be prepared by treating the corresponding thiopyranone with a hydrazine derivative of the formula (VII):
H.sub.2 NNR.sup.4 R.sup.5 (VII)
wherein R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 are as hereinbefore defined, by analogy with the process described by Ibrahim El-Sayad El-Kholy et al., J. Het. Chem., 1974, 11, 487.
Alternatively, compounds of formula (VI) may be obtained by treating the corresponding pyridone with, for instance, Lawesson's reagent or phosphorus pentasulphide, according to conventional procedures. Suitable pyridones may be prepared according to the methodology of Freeman et al. J. Amer. Chem. Soc., 1947, 69, 858.
Included within the compounds of formula (VI) are sub-groups of compounds of the formulae (VIa) and (VIb): ##STR20## wherein R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 are as hereinbefore defined and in which the 4- or 2-thiopyridone ring may be optionally substituted at a ring carbon available for substitution by up to four substituents, of which two may be linked to form the residue of a heterocyclic or carbocyclic ring.
It will be appreciated that within the process hereinbefore described there exists a specific process in which in the compound of formula (V), Y.sup.1 is sulphur, --SO-- or --SO.sub.2 --.
The compounds of formula (I) may also suitably be prepared by reacting a compound of formula (VIII) or a salt thereof: ##STR21## wherein X, Y.sup.1, Y.sup.2 and n are as hereinbefore defined, R.sup.x is hydrogen or a readily removable carboxyl blocking group and the 7.beta.-amino group is optionally substituted with a group which permits acylation to take place; and any reactive groups may be protected;
with an N-acylating derivative of an acid of formula (IX): ##STR22## wherein R.sup.2 is as hereinbefore defined and Y.sup.5 is a group of formula: ##STR23## or a group which is convertible thereto, and R.sup.1 is as hereinbefore defined; and wherein any reactive groups may be protected; and thereafter, if necessary, carrying out one or more of the following steps:
(i) removing any protecting group, including an amino-protecting group R.sup.1 ;
(ii) converting the group R.sup.x into a group R.sup.3 ;
(iii) converting the product to a salt;
(iv) converting a group which is convertible to Y.sup.5 into Y.sup.5, or
(v) converting each or any one of the groups R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 into a different group R.sup.4 and R.sup.5.
Suitable groups which permit acylation to take place and which are optionally present on the amino group of the starting material of the formula (VIII) include silyl, stannyl and phosphorus groups, for example trialkylsilyl groups such as trimethylsilyl, trialkyltin groups such as tri-n-butyltin, phosphorus groups of formula --PR.sup.18 R.sup.19 wherein R.sup.18 is an alkyl, haloalkyl, aryl, aralkyl, alkoxy, haloalkoxy, aryloxy, aralkyloxy or dialkylamino group, R.sup.18 is the same as R.sup.19 or is halogen or R.sup.18 and R.sup.19 together form a ring; suitable such phosphorus groups being --P(OC.sub.2 H.sub.5).sub.2, --P(C.sub.2 H.sub.5).sub.2, ##STR24##
A group which may optionally be introduced in situ prior to acylation onto the amino group in the compound of formula (VIII) is trimethylsilyl.
An appropriate reactive N-acylating derivative of the acid (IX) is employed in the above process.
Suitable N-acylating derivatives include an acid halide, preferably the acid chloride or bromide.
Acylation with an acid halide may be effected in the presence of an acid binding agent, for example a tertiary amine (such as pyridine or dimethylaniline), molecular sieves, or an inorganic base (such as calcium carbonate or sodium bicarbonate) or a silylated derivate of acetamide such as trimethylsllylacetamide or N,O-bis(trimethylsilylacetamide)! or an oxirane, which binds hydrogen halide liberated in the acylation reaction. The oxirane is preferably a (C.sub.1-6)-1,2-alkylene oxide, such as ethylene oxide or propylene oxide. The acylation reaction using an acid halide may be carried out at a temperature in the range -50.degree. C. to +50.degree. C., preferably -20.degree. C. to +20.degree. C., in aqueous or non-aqueous media such as water, acetone, tetrahydrofuran, ethyl acetate, dimethylacetamide, dimethylformamide, acetonitrile, dichloromethane, 1,2-dichloroethane, or mixtures thereof. Alternatively, the reaction may be carried out in an unstable emulsion of water-immiscible solvent, especially an aliphatic ester or ketone, such as methyl isobutyl ketone or butyl acetate. Preferred solvents include tetrahydrofuran, and anhydrous chlorinated hydrocarbons, especially dichloromethane.
The acid halide may be prepared by reacting the acid (IX) or a salt or suitable derivative thereof with a halogenating (eg chlorinating or brominating) agent such as phosphorus pentachloride, phosphorus oxychloride, thionyl chloride, oxalyl chloride, or phosgene.
Further suitable derivatives of the acid (IX) which may be employed in the above process include labile esters such as silyl esters. Suitable silyl esters include, for example, tri(C.sub.1-6)alkyl silyl esters, especially the trimethylsilyl ester.
Other suitable N-acylating derivatives of the acid (IX) include symmetrical and mixed anhydrides. Suitable mixed anhydrides are alkoxyformic anhydrides, or anhydrides with, for example, carbonic acid monoesters, trimethyl acetic acid, thioacetic acid, diphenylacetic acid, benzoic acid, phosphorus acids (such as phosphoric, phosphorous, and phosphinic acids) or aromatic or aliphatic sulphonic acids (such as p-toluenesulphonic acid or methanesulphonic acid). Preferably the N-acylating derivative of the acid (IX) is a mixed anhydride with methanesulphonic acid.
When a symmetrical anhydride is employed, the reaction may be carried out in the presence of 2,6-lutidine as catalyst.
When a mixed anhydride is employed the N-acylating derivative is preferably prepared in the presence of an organic base such as triethylamine and/or N,N-diisopropylethylamine in a suitable solvent such as DMF or dichloromethane at between -50.degree.
