Examples of salts of the compounds of formula I are defined under "pharmaceutically acceptable salts" above.
The compounds of formula I as well as their salts and readily hydrolyzable esters can be hydrated. The hydration can be effected in the course of making the compounds or can occur gradually as a result of hygroscopic properties of an initially anhydrous product.
The compounds of the present invention are useful for the treatment and prophylaxis of infectious diseases in mammals, both human and non-human. They also possess good oral absorption properties.
The products in accordance with the invention can be used as medicaments, for example, in the form of pharmaceutical preparations for enteral (oral) administration. The products in accordance with the invention can be administered, for example, perorally, such as in the form of tablets, coated tablets, dragees, hard and soft gelatine capsules, solutions, emulsions or suspensions, or rectally, such as in the form of suppositories.
Pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds can be prepared using conventional procedures familiar to those skilled in the art, such as by combining the ingredients into a dosage form together with suitable, non-toxic, inert, therapeutically compatible solid or liquid carrier materials and, if desired, the usual pharmaceutical adjuvants.
It is contemplated that the compounds are ultimately embodied into compositions of suitable oral or parenteral dosage forms. The compositions of this invention can contain, as optional ingredients, any of the various adjuvants which are used ordinarily in the production of pharmaceutical preparations. Thus, for example, in formulating the present compositions into the desired oral dosage forms, one may use, as optional ingredients, fillers, such as coprecipitated aluminum hydroxide-calcium carbonate, dicalcium phosphate or lactose; disintegrating agents, such as maize starch; and lubricating agents, such as talc, calcium stearate, and the like. It should be fully understood, however, that the optional ingredients herein named are given by way of example only and that the invention is not restricted to the use hereof. Other such adjuvants, which are well known in the art, can be employed in carrying out this invention.
Suitable as such carrier materials are not only inorganic, but also organic carrier materials. Thus, for tablets, coated tablets, dragees and hard gelatine capsules there can be used, for example, lactose, maize starch or derivatives thereof, talc, stearic acid or its salts. Suitable carriers for soft gelatine capsules are, for example, vegetable oils, waxes, fats and semi-solid and liquid polyols (depending on the nature of the active substance; no carriers are, however, required in the case of soft gelatine capsules). Suitable carrier materials for the preparation of solutions and syrups are, for example, water, polyols, saccharose, invert sugar and glucose. Suitable carrier materials for suppositories are, for example, natural or hardened oils, waxes, fats and semi-liquid or liquid polyols.
As pharmaceutical adjuvants there are contemplated the usual preservatives, solubilizers, stabilizers, wetting agents, emulsifiers, sweeteners, colorants, flavorants, salts for varying the osmotic pressure, buffers, coating agents and antioxidants.
The compounds of formula I and their salts, or hydrates, can preferably be used for parenteral administration, and for this purpose are preferably made into preparations as lyophilisates or dry powders for dilution with customary agents, such as water or isotonic common salt solution.
Depending on the nature of the pharmacologically active compound the pharmaceutical preparations can contain the compound for the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases in mammals, human and non-human, a daily dosage of about 10 mg to about 4000 mg, especially about 50 mg to about 3000 mg, is usual, with those of ordinary skill in the art appreciating that the dosage will depend also upon the age, conditions of the mammals, and the kind of diseases being prevented or treated. The daily dosage can be administered in a single dose or can be divided over several doses. An average single dose of about 50 mg, 100 mg, 250 mg, 500 mg, 1000 mg, and 2000 mg can be contemplated.

The compounds of the formula I in accordance with the invention as well as their pharmaceutical acceptable salts, hydrates, or readily hydrolyzable esters can be made in accordance with the invention by
(a) treating a compound having the formula III ##STR7## in which R.sup.2 is as defined above under formula I or an ester or salt thereof, with acylating agents, or
(b) for making of a compound of formula I in which R.sup.1 and/or R.sup.2 may contain free amino, hydroxy or carboxylic group(s) cleaving off the amino, hydroxy and/or carboxy protecting group(s) or reducing a nitro group to amino in a compound having the formula IV ##STR8## in which R.sup.h is hydrogen or a carboxy protecting group, R.sup.f is as R.sup.1 and R.sup.g is as R.sup.2 with the proviso that at least one of the following provisions is fulfilled:
(i) R.sup.h is a carboxylic acid protecting group,
(ii) R.sup.f is a residue defined under R.sup.1 having nitro, protected amino, protected hydroxy and/or protected carboxylic group(s),
(iii) R.sup.g is a residue defined under R.sup.2 having nitro, protected amino, protected hydroxy and/or protected carboxylic group(s),
or a salt thereof, or

(d) for making of salts or hydrates of a compound of formula I or hydrates of said salts converting a compound of formula I into a salt or hydrate or into a hydrate of said salts.
The reaction of compounds III with acylating agents according to embodiment (a) can be carried out in a manner known per se.
Examples of acylating agents used in embodiment (a) are activated carboxylic acids such as acid chlorides, anhydrides, reactive esters such as N-hydroxysuccinimide esters, 2-benzothiazolyl thioesters, or 1-hydroxy-benzotriazole esters of the carboxylic acids. For instance, the 2-benzothiazolyl thioester may be reacted with the compound of the formula III in an inert organic solvent such as in dimethylformamide, methylene chloride, ethyl acetate and the like. The 1-hydroxybenzotriazole ester can be employed by reacting the carboxylic acid with 1-hydroxybenzotriazole and a carbodiimide, especially N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide or N,N'-diisopropylcarbodiimide in an inert organic solvent, preferably methylene chloride, dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran, acetonitrile or ethyl acetate.
The carboxy group in compounds of the formula III can be protected; for example, by esterification to form a readily cleavable ester such as allyl-, t-butyl-, benzhydryl-, p-nitrobenzyl, p-methoxybenzyl-ester.
The 7-amino group in compounds of the formula III can be protected, for example, by those groups employed in peptide chemistry, such as allyloxycarbonyl, t-butoxycarbonyl, p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl or benzyloxycarbonyl, trityl or benzhydryl. Preferred is allyloxycarbonyl.
The reaction of a 7-amino compound of formula III with a carboxylic acid or a reactive derivative thereof can conveniently be carried out at a temperature between about -40.degree. C. and +60.degree. C., e.g. at room temperature.
Compound of the formula III can be obtained by palladium assisted deprotection of the corresponding allylester IVa ##STR9## wherein R.sup.2 is as defined above. or in case of esters other than allylesters being used by cleaving off the allyloxycarbonyl-amino-protecting group, adding the acylating agent and cleaving off the ester-group.
Embodiment (b) of the process of the present invention involves deprotection (removal) of protected amino, hydroxy or carboxylic groups present in a compound of formula IV and can be carried and as follows:
Removal of amino protecting groups
The amino protecting groups may be cleaved off by acid hydrolysis (e.g. the t-butoxycarbonyl group or trityl group), using e.g. aqueous formic acid.
In the case of an allyloxycarbonyl protecting group Pd(0) (- produced in situ by reduction of Pd-bis triphenylphosphin-dichloride with a trialkyltinhydride -) is employed at a temperature in the range of about -30.degree. C. to +40.degree. C. in the presence of a Pd-.pi.-complex scavenger like dimedon, pyrrolidin, dialkylmalonat, trialkyltinhydride, in an aprotic solvent such as dichlormethane, hexane, diethylether, toluol or tetrahydrofuran.
Removal of hydroxy protecting groups
Possible hydroxy protecting groups are such as are commonly known in the art, e.g. benzyl or p-nitrobenzyl.
For protection of hydroxyimino groups trityl or acetyl can be employed.
These protecting groups are e.g. removed as follows:
-trityl in acidic solvents like 90% formic acid at about 0.degree. C. to 50.degree. C. or triethylsilane in trifluoroacetic acid at about -20.degree. C. to 25.degree. C.; in organic solutions of hydrochloric acid at about -50.degree. C. to 25.degree. C.;
-acetyl with weak inorganic bases like sodium bicarbonate in ethanol/water at about 0.degree. C. to 50.degree. C.;
-benzyl, p-nitrobenzyl with hydrogen or a hydrogen donor like cyclohexene or cyclohexadiene and a catalyst like Pd/C in solvents like alcohols, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, acetic acid, dimethylformamide etc, or mixtures of these at about 0.degree. C. to 50.degree. C.
Removal of protecting groups at the carboxy function
As ester protecting groups one may utilize an ester form which can be easily converted into a free carboxyl group under mild conditions, the ester protecting group being exemplified by, for example, t-butyl, p-nitrobenzyl, p-methoxybenzyl, benzhydryl, allyl, etc.
These protecting groups may be removed as follows:
benzhydryl trifluoroacetic acid with anisol, phenol, cresol or triethylsilane at about -40.degree. C. to room temperature; hydrogen with Pd/C in an alcohol such as ethanol or in tetrahydrofuran;
BF.sub.3 -etherate in acetic acid at about 0.degree. C. to 50.degree. C.;
t-butyl formic acid or trifluoroacetic acid with or without anisol, phenol, cresol or triethylsilane and a solvent such as dichloromethane at about -10.degree. C. to room temperature;
p-nitrobenzyl sodium sulfide in acetone/water at about 0.degree. C. to room temperature; or hydrogen with Pd/C in an alcohol such as ethanol or in tetrahydrofuran;
p-methoxybenzyl formic acid at about 0.degree. C. to 50.degree. C.; or trifluoroacetic acid and anisol, phenol or triethylsilane at about -40.degree. C. to room temperature;
allyl palladium(0) catalyzed transalkylation reaction in the presence of sodium or potassium salt of 2-ethyl hexanoic acid, see for example J. Org. Chem. 1982, 47, 587.
In order to make a readily hydrolyzable ester of the carboxylic acids of formula I in accordance with embodiment (c) of the process provided by the present invention, a carboxylic acid of formula I is preferably reacted with a corresponding halide, preferably an iodide, containing the desired ester group. The reaction can be accelerated with the aid of a base such as an alkali metal hydroxide, an alkali metal carbonate or an organic amine such as triethylamine. The esterification is preferably carried out in an inert organic solvent such as dimethylacetamide, hexamethylphosphoric acid triamide, dimethyl sulfoxide or, especially, dimethylformamide. The reaction is preferably carried out at a temperature in the range of about 0.degree. C. to 40.degree. C.
The making of the salts and hydrates of the compounds of formula I or the hydrates of said salts in accordance with embodiment (d) of the process provided by the present invention can be carried out in a manner known per se; for example, by reacting a carboxylic acid of formula I or a salt thereof with an equivalent amount of the desired base, conveniently in a solvent such as water or an organic solvent (e.g. ethanol, methanol, acetone and the like). Correspondingly, salt formation is brought about by the addition of an organic or inorganic salt. The temperature at which the salt formation is carried out is not critical. The salt formation is generally carried out at room temperature, but it can be carried out at a temperature slightly above or below room temperature, for example in the range of 0.degree. C. to +50.degree. C.
The making of the hydrates usually takes place automatically in the course of the manufacturing process or as a result of the hygroscopic properties of an initially anhydrous product. For the controlled manufacture of a hydrate, a completely or partially anhydrous carboxylic acid of formula I or salt thereof can be exposed to a moist atmosphere (e.g. at about +10.degree. C. to +40.degree. C.).
Exemplary of the process for obtaining products in accordance with the invention are the following reaction scheme 1 below. Scheme 1 shows the process for obtaining compounds in accordance with the invention, e.g. a compound of formula II. ##STR10##
Scheme 1
Wittig reaction 1 to 3
The reaction of known 3-isooxacephem aldehyde (1) wherein the 7-amino-protecting group is allyloxycarbonyl and the carboxy protecting group is allyl with a Wittig reagent (2) yields the coupling product (3). The reaction is carried out in the presence of a base which is either an inorganic base (sodium or potassium hydroxide, sodium or potassium carbonate etc.), an organic base (tertiary amines), an organolithium compound such as butyl lithium or phenyl lithium or an epoxide such as 1,2-butyleneoxide. The preferred solvents are in the case of inorganic base being used, water and water-miscible solvents (acetone, tetrahydrofuran, or alcohols etc.); in the case of organic base being used, an inert solvent such as methylene chloride, chloroform, benzene, tetrahydrofuran; in the case of organolithium being used, benzene or tetrahydrofuran; and in the case an epoxide being used, the epoxide itself (e.g. 1,2-butyleneoxide). The temperature for the reaction ranges from -20.degree. C. to 80.degree. C. The preferred conditions are exemplified in the examples.
In the normal Wittig Reaction according to scheme 1, the E isomer is the predominant product. Invariably, less than 10% Z-isomer is formed, the amount depending on the reagents and conditions.
The making of the Wittig reagent (2) can be carried out in a manner known per se; for example, by cyclization of a N-substituted dibromide using a catalyst like Dowex as described in the European Patent Application EPA 0 620 255.
Deprotection 3 to 4
The carboxylic acid protecting group R.sup.h and the amino protecting group R.sup.f are removed and the reaction conditions used are depending on the nature of the protecting groups.
In the case of the amino protecting group being allyloxycarbonyl and the carboxy protecting group being the allyl ester, Pd(0) generated in situ is employed. In the case of the amino protecting group being t-butoxycarbonyl and the carboxy protecting group being benzhydryl, trifluoroacetic acid is employed, at temperature of about -20.degree. C. to about room temperature.
Acylation 3 to 4
The acylation of compound (4) can be carried out with an organic acid which is activated with known reagents, preferably anhydride, thionyl chloride, oxalyl chloride, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, bis-�benzthiazolyl-(2)!disulfide, N-hydroxy benzotriazole or a 2-halo N-methylpyridinium salt. The reaction is carried out with or without the base (inorganic or organic bases) depending on the method of activation and a wide range of solvents, from water and water-miscible solvent to inert solvents such as chloroform, dimethylformamide (DMF) or dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) can be used. The R.sup.3 group, if necessary, can be further deprotected with a reaction condition suitable for the removal of the protecting group.
The 2-carboxylic function of compound (5) is converted to the prodrug esters which are readily hydrolyzable in vivo.
