Erythromycin derivative

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
(1) Technical Field
The present invention relates to erythromycin derivatives and salts thereof useful as stimulants for contractive motion of the digestive tract, exhibiting action for stimulating contractive motion of the digestive tract of mammals, and also to processes for producing the same.
(2) Background Information
The digestive tract consists of the stomach, the duodenum, the small intestine etc., and plays an important role in the digestion of food taken from the mouth. The contractive motion of the digestive tract is essential in order to perform the digestion smoothly. In a healthy man, the autonomous nerve system and digestive tract hormones function effectively to induce contraction of the digestive tract not only immediately after the intake of foods but also in a state where the digestive tract is empty, when such contraction has been considered absent. The movement in such empty digestive tract is transmitted from the stomach to the duodenum and to the small intestine, and plays an important role cleaning the digestive tract, thus preparing for next intake of foods (Z. Itoh, "Iden", 33, 29, 1979).
A stimulant for contraction of the digestive tract is expected to induce a normal movement of the digestive tract, in a human with weakened function of the digestive tract, thereby a healthy body being maintained.
Motilin is already known as a digestive tract hormone for stimulating the contraction of the digestive tract. This substance is a peptide, consisting of 22 amino acids and extracted by J. C. Brown in 1966 from the mucous membrane of a pig duodenum (J. C. Brown et al., Gastroenterology, 50, 333, 1966), and is already synthesized chemically (E. Wunsch et al., Zeitschrift fur Naturforsch, 28c, 235, 19730.
However the supply of motilin by extraction from natural substance or by chemical synthesis is not sufficient, and has not been possible in a large amount.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In the course of a survey for providing a substance capable of stimulating the contraction of the digestive tract and adapted for a large supply, the present inventors have synthesized various derivatives from antibiotic erythromycin A, B, C, D and F and have found that said derivatives have a strong stimulating effect on the contraction of the digestive tract.
Based on this finding, the present inventors have made intensive efforts and have reached the present invention.

The compound (1) or its salt of the present invention has an excellent effect on stimulating the gastrointestinal contraction. Also, no lethal case was observed when the compound (55) described later is orally administered to mouse at a dose of 2300 mg/kg. Accordingly, the compound (1) of the present invention may be considered to be low in toxicity.
Thus, the compound (1) or its salt shows an excellent effect for stimulating the gastrointestinal contraction with a low toxicity, and can therefore be utilized as a gastrointestinal contractive motion stimulant for the therapy of digestive malfunctions (nausea, vomiting, want of apetite in gastritis, gastric ulcer, duodenal ulcer, diseases in gallbladder and biliary tract etc.) in mammals (mouse, rat, dog, cow, pig, man, etc.).
The compound (1) of the present invention can be administered orally or non-orally to the above-mentioned mammals. The daily dose thereof, in case of oral administration, is ca. 0.001-100 mg/kg in the form of the compound (1), and, in case of non-oral administration, for example, intravenous injection, is ca. 0.0001-10 mg/kg.
For example, a compound (32), to be explained later, induces an extremely strong contraction in the stomach, duodenum and small intestine in dog, by an intravenous administration of a dose of 1.0 mg/kg. The contractive motion is comparable to the strongest one in the gastrointestinal contraction in normal dog. Also a reduced dose in the order of 3 g/kg induces, instead of continuous strong contraction, a contractive motion of an identical pattern with that of the natural contraction into digestive state.
The compound (1) of the present invention can be administered in various forms of preparations, such as emulsion, hydrated mixture, tablet, solution, powder, granules, capsule, pill, etc. containing additional components. The additional components include pharmacologically permitted vehicle, disintegrator, lubricant, binder, dispersant, plasticizer, etc. As examples of the additional components, the examples of vehicles are lactose, glucose and white sugar; those of disintegrators are starch, sodium alginate, agar powder and carboxymethyl cellulose calcium; those of lubricants are magnesium stearate, talc and liquid paraffin; those of binders are syrup, gelatin solution, ethanol and polyvinyl alcohol; those of dispersants are methyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose and shellac; and those of plasticizers are glycerin and starch.
These preparations can be obtained by methods usually employed in the field of pharmaceutics.
PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION
The gastrointestinal motion was measured in the following manner (Z. Itoh, Nihon Heikatsu-kin Gakkai Zasshi, 13, 33, 1976). A mongrel adult dog of a weight of 10-15 kg was anesthetized and the abdominal cavity was opened, and force transducers were chronically sutured on the serosa of the gastrointestinal tract such as gastric body, gastric antrum, duodenum, jejunum, etc. in directions capable of recording the contraction of circular muscles. The lead wires were extracted from the back and fixed to the skin. The experiment could be started about 5 days after recovery from such operation, and a dog prepared in this manner can be subjected to experiments for about 6 months. The force transducer, when subjected to a bending stress by the contraction of the gastrointestinal tract where the transducer is sutured, allows to record the wave form corresponding to the applied force, on a pen-recording oscillograph, and this method allows to measure the nature and magnitude of the contraction.
The dog was maintained in an experimental cage, and the wave form of contraction can be immediately recorded by connecting the wires of the transducer to the polygraph. The gastrointestinal contractive motion can be divided, from the pattern of contraction, into the one in a period after food intake and it in an interdigestive period. The experiments were conducted, during the interdigestive period and in an inactive period lacking the contraction in the stomach. The sample was injected through a silicone tube placed in advance in the superior vena cava over 10 seconds.
The sample was dissolved in physiological saline to a total volume of 10 ml. and was slowly injected intravenously for a period of ca. 10 seconds.
The gastrointestinal motor stimulating activity (GMSA) is summarized in Table 1.

EXAMPLE 160
50 mg of the compound 50 was processed in the same manner as in Example 155 to obtain 46 mg (yield 79%) of 11-O-acetyl-8,9-anhydroerythromycin A 6,9-hemiketal allyl bromide (compound 171) in white powder.
EXAMPLE 161
50 mg of the compound 25 wa dissolved in 1 ml of chloroform, then 0.2 ml of propargyl bromide was added thereto and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. Thereafter, the same processing as in Example 50 was conducted to obtain 44 mg (yield 77%) of 4"-O-formyl-11-O-mesyl-8,9-anhydroerythromycin A 6,9-hemiketal propargyl bromide (compound 172) in white powder.
EXAMPLE 162
7 5 50 mg of the compound 57 was dissolved in 2 ml of chloroform, then 0.3 ml of ethyl iodide was added thereto and the mixture thereof was heated under reflux for 20 hours. Subsequently, the same processing as in Example 50 was conducted to obtain 39 mg (yield 66%) of 11-O-mesyl-8,9-anhydroerythromycin A 6,9-hemiketal ethyl iodide (compound 173) in pale yellow powder.
EXAMPLE 163
50 mg of the compound 57 was dissolved in 2 ml of chloroform, then 0.3 ml of propyl iodide was added thereto and the mixture was heated under reflux for 48 hours. Subsequently, the same processing as in Example 54 was conducted to obtain 34 mg (yield 56%) of 11-O-mesyl-8,9-anhydroerythromycin A 6,9-hemiketal propyl iodide (compound 174) in pale yellow powder.
