Macrolide compounds

The present invention relates to new antibiotics of the macrolide family, to a process for preparing them and to pharmaceutical compositions containing them.
The requirements of therapeutics demand the constant development of new antibiotics, not only on account of the possibility of the appearance of new resistant strains, but also with the object of creating new molecules possessing improved activity in respect of both their threshold of efficacy and the breadth of their spectrum of action.
A large number of modifications of the tylosin ring-system have already been carried out in order to produce new advantageous antibiotics. Among the most recent, U.S. Pat. No(s). 4,528,369, 4,581,346 and 4,629,786 and European Patent Applications 0,103,465, 0,104,028, 0,154,495, 0,203,621 and 0,292,852 may be mentioned. However, none of these modifications has enabled a tylosin compound used in human therapy to be obtained
More especially, the subject of the present invention is the products derived from tylosin of general formula (I): ##STR2## in which:
R.sub.1 represents a hydrogen atom or a group: ##STR3##
R.sub.2 represents a hydrogen atom or a group: ##STR4## and in the case where R.sub.3 represents a hydrogen atom, R.sub.1 likewise represents a hydrogen atom,
B represents a hydrogen atom or a lower acyl group,
A represents:
a CH.sub.2 OH group, and in this case B represents a lower acyl group, or:
a (CH.sub.2).sub.n CN group,
or a --(CH.sub.2).sub.n CHO group,
or a --(CH.sub.2).sub.(+1) OH group
in which n is an integer between 1 and 6, a lower acyl group being understood to be a group containing 1 to 5 carbon atoms.
The invention also encompasses the salts of the compounds of formula (I). Among acids which may be added to the compounds of formula (I) to form an addition salt, hydrochloric, hydrobromic, hydriodic, sulphuric, acetic, propionic, trifluoroacetic, maleic, malic, tartaric, methanesulphonic, ethanesulphonic, benzenesulphonic, ptoluenesulphonic, phosphoric, fumaric, citric, camphoric, stearic and ethylsuccinic acids, etc., may be mentioned by way of example.

The compounds of formula (I) possess advantageous pharmacological properties.
In particular, these compounds are active against gram+cocci and gram-cocci, gram+bacilli (clostridia), certain gram-bacilli, Haemophilus (e.g. Haemophilus influenzae), Neissia gonorrhoeae, Brucella, Bordetelella, anaerobic bacteria, mycoplasmata, rickettsiae and miyagawanellae (Chlamydia), spirochetes, protozoa and certain dermofungi.
More especially, the compounds of formula (I) possess very good antibiotic activity against pneumococci, staphylococci and streptococci. This spectrum of activity makes the compounds of formula (I) especially advantageous in the treatment of a large number of conditions; among these, it is possible to mention, by way of example, pneumococcal infections such as bronchiti, brucellosis and diphtheria, gonococcal infection, pneumonia, streptococcal infections such as acute angina, otitis, scarlet fever, sinusitis, staphylococcal infections such as staphylococcal septicemia, anthrax, erysipelas, pyoderma, acute staphylococcal infections bronchopneumonia and pulmonary suppurations.
In addition, the compounds of the present invention, by virtue of their structure, are likely to prove advantageous on account of their lack of hepatic or gastrointestinal toxicity, and this distinguishes them favourably from other families of antibiotic compounds.
The subject of the present invention is also pharmaceutical compositions containing the products of formula (I) or one of their addition salts with a pharmaceutically acceptable acid, alone or in combination with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable, non-toxic, inert vehicles or excipients.
Among the pharmaceutical compositions according to the invention, those which are suitable for oral, parenteral, nasal, rectal, perlingual, ocular or respiratory administration may be mentioned more especially, and in particular injectable preparations, aerosols, eye or nose drops, simple or sugar-coated tablets, sublingual tablets, sachets, packets, gelatin capsules, sublingual preparations, bars, suppositories, creams, ointments, skin gels, and the like.
The pharmaceutical compositions according to the invention may also be presented in the form of a lyophilized powder for dissolution at the time of use in a suitable solvent, in particular pyrogen-free sterile water.
The dosage varies according to the patient's age and weight, the administration route and the nature of the therapeutic indication and of any associated treatments, and ranges between 1 centigram and 4 grams per dose or per application.
The examples which follow illustrate the invention and in no way limit the latter.
The .sup.13 C and .sup.1 H nuclear magnetic resonance spectra were recorded using TMS as internal reference.
The starting material used in the synthesis of the compounds of formula (I) is tylosin, which is known in the literature.
