The subject matter of the invention further comprises a method for producing the nitrofurylpyrazoles of formulaI ##STR20## in which R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and A have their stated meanings.
The method is characterized as follows:
(a) a nitrofurylpyrazole methylammonium salt of formula V ##STR21## in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 have their previously-noted meanings and in which each of R.sup.16 and R.sup.17 is, independently, a hydrogen atom, straight-chained or branch-chained alkyl with from 1 to 5 carbon atoms (preferably methyl), and R.sup.17 is, optionally, also a cycloalkyl radical with from 3 to 6 carbon atoms, or unsubstituted phenyl or phenyl optionally substituted by alkyl with from 1 to 4 carbon atoms (preferably methyl); alternatively, R.sup.16 and R.sup.17 jointly are alkylene with from 4 to 6 (preferably 5) carbon atoms, e.g. pentamethylene, or in which a methylene group is optionally replaced by a heteroatom, such as oxygen or sulfur, or by =N--R.sup.18, in which R.sup.18 is alkyl (preferably with from 1 to 3 carbon atoms), i.e. with the formation of a 3-aza-, 3-thia- or, preferably, 3-oxapentamethylene, and Q .sup.- denotes an equivalent of an anion of an organic or inorganic acid, is lyolized or
(b) a furylpyrazole of formula VI ##STR22## in which R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and A have their previously-ascribed meanings, in nitrated or
(c) a substituted methyl-nitrofurylpyrazole of formula VII ##STR23## in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 have their previously-noted meaning and V is halgon (preferably chloro or bromo), a hydroxy or an amino group, is oxidized or dehydrogenated.
According to the desired meaning of A, the compounds obtained from (a) to (c) are then optionally lyolized and/or alkylated or acylated and/or dehydrated and/or oxidized or, respectively, dehydrogenated.
The lyolysis in accordance with (a) is carried out with compounds WH in which W denotes respectively a substituted oxygen or sulfur atom with two bonds or a nitrogen atom with three bonds, that is with --OH, --SH or --NH compounds, generally according known methods. Water and alcohols are illustrative of --OH, while --SH compounds include, e.g., hydrogen sulfide and thiols, Exemplary --NH compounds are ammonia, primary and secondary amines, hydroxylamines and hydrazines.
The lyolysis of compounds V with water is generally effected at temperatures between -20.degree. and 100.degree. C without or with the addition of an organic solvent, for example an alcohol (such as ethanol), an amide (such as dimethylformamide), a carboxylic acid (such as acetic acid), a ketone (such as acetone), an ether (such as dioxane), a nitrile (such as acetonitrile), or a chlorinated hydrocarbon (such as methylene chloride) in weakly alkaline or, preferably, neutral to strongly acidic conditions; the reaction takes from 0.2 to 8 hours and leads to compounds of formula I in which A is a free aldehyde group; that is to compounds of formula II in which X is an oxygen atom. According to a preferred embodiment the reaction mixture, as obtained in the production of 4-pyrazolylmethyleneammonium compounds V, e.g., by a Vilsmeier or Duff reaction, is stirred into ice, adjusted (if necessary) in pH to from 2 to 7 and subjected to lyolysis which is completed by heating to 15.degree. to 50.degree. C to precipitate aldehydes of formula II.
The lyolysis of compounds of formula V with alcohols is generally brought about by reaction with corresponding alcohols, optionally while heating and/or with the addition of suitable alkali metal alcoholates and/or in the presence of inert solvents and leads to compounds of formula I in which A represents a protected aldehyde in the form of an open-chained or ring acetal.
The lyolysis of compounds of formula V with carbon disulfide or, respectively, thiols or their salts with inorganic or organic bases is, if appropriate, carried out in an organic solvent, such as pyridine, dimethylformamide or alcohol, and/or under pressure at temperatures of 0.degree. C to 120.degree. C and leads to compounds of the general formula I, in which A denotes a derived aldehyde group in the form of a thioaldehyde group; that is, compounds of formula Ii in which X denotes a sulfur atom, preferably in the form of their polymers and, respectively, compounds I in which A denotes a protected aldehyde group in the form of a mercaptal.
The lyolysis of compounds of formula V with amino compounds H.sub.2 N--R.sup.19 (in which R.sup.19 represents a hydrogen atom or one of --R.sup.3, --O--R.sup.4 or ##STR24## in which R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 have their previously-designated meanings) leads to compounds of formula I (in which A represents a derived aldehyde group), that is compounds of formula II (in which X denotes .dbd.NH, .dbd.N--R.sup.3, .dbd.N--O--R.sup.4 or ##STR25## in which R.sup.3, R.sup.4,R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 have their previously-noted meanings). Lyolysis with ammonia or amines, H.sub.2 N--R.sup.3, is carried out with equivalent or excess quantities of amino compound at temperatures between -40.degree. C and 120.degree. C, optionally in inert solvent and/or under pressure and/or with equivalent quantities of strong base, such as sodium amide, sodium hydride or potassium tert.-butylate. -butylate.
Lyolysis with a hydroxylamine, H.sub.2 N--O--R.sup.4, or a hydrazine, ##STR26## is performed with equivalent or, preferbly, 1- to 1.2-mole excess of amino compounds at from 0.degree. to 120.degree. C, and preferably from 15.degree. to 90.degree. C (preferably) in organic solvent, e.g. an amide (such as dimethylformamide or N-methylpyrrolidone), dimethylsulfoxide or alcohol (such as methanol, ethanol or 2-methoxyethanol), optionally also in admixture with water and/or a proton donor, preferably a lower alkanoic aicd, such as acetic acid, which optionally is released by the addition of a corresponding carboxylic acid salt. Lyolysis with a secondary amine, amino alcohol or diamine leads to a compound of formula I, in which A represents a protected aldehyde group, for example, in the form of an aminal, an oxazolidine or imidazolidine.
Nitration of method (b) is carried out according to known procedures. The nitration is advantageously effected under mild conditions, for example at a low temperature, such as for -30.degree. to 40.degree. C, and under substantially anhydrous conditions, such as with fuming nitric acid and in 95 to 100% sulfuric acid, or in an organic solvent, such as acetic acid, acetic anhydride, chloroform or admixutures thereof, the operation being carried out by stirring into ice. Method (b) is particularly suitable for preparing compounds of formula VI, in which A is a radical (preferably aldehyde, hydroxy-imino, acylhydrazono, nitrile or carbamoyl)which cannot be nitrated and is resistant to the nitrating mixture, and R.sup.1 represents a radical which is difficult to nitrate, for example a hydrogen atom, lower alkoxycarbonyl, lower alkyl or pyridyl (in other cases compouns of the formula I are chiefly produced with an additional nitro group in substituent R.sup.1).
The reaction of method (c) is carried out with reagents or in a manner known to those skilled in the art. The oxidation of compounds of formula VII, in which V is a halogen atom, is effected, for example, by heating with 15 to 20% aqueous copper or lead nitrate solutions, by Sommelet's reaction (with hexamethylenetetramine and subsequent hydrolysis with acid, for example 50% acetic acid) or by heating with selenium dioxide, for example, in nitrobenzene, and leads to compounds of formula I in which A is a free aldehyde group. In another embodiment a halogen compound of formula VII (V = halogen) is reacted with an aromatic amine, for example aniline, and then oxidized in aqueous suspension or solution, for example, with dichromate/sulfuric acid or permanganate in aqueous-acetonic solution at temperatures of from 0.degree. to 20.degree. C. The halogen compounds of formula VII (V .dbd. halogen) are optionally first converted into corresponding hydroxy compounds of formula VII (V = OH) by saponification, for example with dilute potassium carbonate solution, and then, as explained below, oxidized.
The oxidation of compounds of formula VII, in which V is an amino group, is carried out, for example, by reaction with potassium permanganate in acetone at low temperatures or by dehydrogenation, for example with isatin or alloxan, with subsequent hydrolysis of the imine formed as an intermediate, and leads to compounds of formula I in whcih A is a free aldehyde group. In accord with a further embodiment an amino compound of the formula VII (V = NH.sub.2) is reacted with an aromatic compounds, which has an easily exchanged halogen atom, for example 4-nitro-chlorobenzene-2-sulfonic acid or 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene, the resulting secondary amines are dehydrogenated to form Schiff bases, for example with dichromate/sulfuric acid or permanganate, and the latter is then hydrolyzed with acid to a compound of formula I in which A is a free aldehyde. The dehydrogenation of compounds of formula VII, in which V is a hydroxy group, is carried out with the assistance of a conventional mild oxidizing agent, for example manganese dioxide in dilute sulfuric acid, activated manganese dioxide in organic solvent (such as petroleum ether, acetone or carbon tetrachloride, optionally also at an elevated temperature), dichromate/sulfuric acid or nitric acid at a low temperature or by catalytic removal of hydrogen, for example in the presence of a copper, silver or zinc compound. In a further embodiment of the invention dehydrogenation is carried out in contact with a hydrogen acceptor, for example chloranil, in toluene or dimethylformamide, or by oxidation with lead dioxide or lead tetraacetate, for example, in a benzene solution with pyridine or by oxidizing reduction in contact with an aldehyde or ketone, for example, in accordance with the method of Oppenauer, compounds of formula I in which A is a free aldehyde group being obtained. The further oxidation of such aldehyde, for example, with hydrogen peroxide and alkali at room temperature, with permanganate and pyridine or with silver oxide leads to compounds of formula I in which A is a free carboxylic acid. Another embodiment of the invention yields such compounds by direct oxidation of compounds of formula VII (in which V denotes a hydroxy group), for example by reaction with dichromate/sulfuric acid in water, optionally with a solution promoter, such as dimethylformamide, potassium permanganate and hydrochloric acid in acetone, or nitric acid, optionally at a raised temperature.
The steps (lyolysis and/or alkylation and/or acylation and/or dehydration and/or oxidation and/or dehydrogenation) which optionally (if necessary) follow the parts of methods (a) to (c) are carried out according to known and established procedures, for example those described in Houben-Weyl, "Methoden der organischen Chemie", 4th edition, Georg-Thieme-Verlag, Stuttgart; I.T. Harrison, S. Harrison, "compendium of Organic Synthetic Methods", Wiley-Interscience (1971); C. A. Buehler, D. E. Pearson, "Survey of Organic Synthesis", Wiley-Interscience (1970); S. R. Sandler, W. Karo, "Organic Functional Group Preparations", Vol. 1 (1968), 2 (1971) and 3 (1972), Academic Press, N.Y. and London.
Thus the lyolysis is carried out with suitable materials, for example WH compounds in which W has the previously-mentioned meaning or acid anhydrides, optionally with a catalyst and/or activator and/or inorganic solvent. Lyolysis of compounds II (in which CH.dbd.X represents a protected or derived aldehyde group) with water and inorganic or organic acid, for example hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, at room temperature or at a raised temperature leads to compounds of formula II in which A denotes a free aldehyde group; the lyolysis of acetals, e.g., is carried out with dilute hydrochloric acid while that of oximes and hydrazines is carried out with 65% sulfuric acid. Lyolysis with water of compounds III in contact with a base, for example sodium hydroxide solution or, preferably, an acid, for example hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid (or Lewis acid, for example boron trifluoride without organic solvent, for example in concentrated sulfuric acid), preferably at room temperature or with an organic solvent, for example an alcohol, methylene chloride or acetic acid, optionally with a copper catalyst and/or an activator, for example ammonium nitrate or sodium nitrate, or, in another embodiment, for example, in sodium hydroxide solution and hydrogen peroxide, leads to compounds of formula I in which A is carbamoyl and of formula IV in which --C(.dbd.U)R.sup.11 is a --C(.dbd.O)NH.sub.2 group. Under similar reaction conditions, for example at a raised temperature and/or in the case of a prolonged reaction time, lyolysis of nitriles of formula III (via their amides of formula IV) leads to compounds of formula I in which A represents a free carboxyl group When compounds IV (in which --C(.dbd.U)R.sup.11 denotes a protected or derived carboxylic acid group) are subjected to lyolysis with water under alkaline, acidic or neutral conditions, compounds I (in which A represents a free carboxyl group) are obtained; when the lyolysis is incomplete, a stable intermediate stage of formula IV results. Thus, reactive derivatives of formula IV (in which --C(.dbd.U)R.sup.11 denotes, for example, thioamide, imide acid ester or an amidine), are lyolized under mild conditions with water to form amides of formula IV in which --C(.dbd.U)R.sup.11 represents a carbamoyl group. Lyolysis with water is favored by intermediate formation of reactive intermediate stages, for example, in the case of reacting an amide of formula IV (in which --C(.dbd.U)R.sup.11 denotes a carbamoyl group) with nitrous acid in a medium containing acetic acid and/or sulfuric acid and with water. The lyolysis of compounds of the formula I (in which R.sup.1 denotes an acyl group) with water, more praticularly with a basic catalyst, such as ammonia, organic amines or alkali metal hydroxide, leads to compounds of formula I in which R.sup.1 denotes a hydrogen atom. When compounds of formula I (in which A denotes a free aldehyde group) are subjected to lyolysis with alcohols, compounds of formula I, in which A is a protected aldehyde group in the form of an open-chained or ring acetal, are obtained. This lyolysis is, for example, carried out with alkanols or alkanediols, such as alcohols, e.g. methanol, ethanol, propanol, n-butanol, ehyleneglycol, propyleneglycol and 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediol and acidic catalysts, such as p-toluene sulfonic acid, perchloric acid, hydrochloric acid or Lewis acids, and the water produced is removed, if necessary, by azeotropic distillation, for example, by means of chloroform or benzene. Lyolysis with alcohols is also carried out with corresponding orthoesters, for example orthoformic acid esters, with the help of acidic catalysts, such as mineral acids, ammonium chloride or pyridine hydrochloride. When lyolysis of compounds of formula III is carried out with alcohols, for example while cooling in the presence of hydrogen chloride, compounds of formula I in which A is a derived carboxylic acid group in the form of an alkyl carboximidate hydrochloride are obtained. Compounds of formula I, in which A represents a free or reactive derived carboxylic acid group, are lyolyzed with alcohols to compounds of the formula I in which A represents a protected carboxylic acid group. Examples of such lyolysis include: the azeotropic or extractive reaction of a free acid of formula I (A = COOH) with excess alcohol, R.sup.20 --OH, in which R.sup.20 represents alkyl with from 1 to 11 (chiefly 1 to 4) carbon atoms or aralkyl with up to 14 carbon atoms, primarily benzyl or phenethyl, in contact with a proton donor; reaction of the preceding components at room temperature in contact with dicyclohexylcarbodiimide; reaction of an acid halide or acid anhydride of formula I (A = --CO--R.sup.11), in which R.sup.11 denotes a halogen atom or an acyloxy group, respectively, with an alcohol, R.sup.20 --OH, in which R.sup.20 has its previously-mentioned meaning or aryl with up to 12 carbon atoms, primarily phenyl, either with or without a basic condensing agent, such as pyridine, triethylamine or an alkali metal hydroxide. Lyolysis of a compound of formula II (in which X denotes an oxygen atom) with hydrogen sulfide in an organic solvent with an acidic catalyst, for example hydrogen chloride or zinc chloride, leads to derivatives of the formula II (in which X is a sulfur atom) in the form of their polymers, preferably trimers. Lyolysis of compounds of formula III with hydrogen sulfide or a thiol, such as an alkylmercaptan or thioacetic acid (if necessary with an inorganic or organic base, for example pyridine, and/or inert solvent and/or under pressure and/or at a raised temperature) leads to compunds of formula IV, in which --C(.dbd.U)R.sup.11 represents a thioamide group or an iminothioether group. Lyolysis of compounds of formula I, in which A denotes a free aldehyde group, with a thiol, such as methylmercaptan, ethylmercaptan and ethane-1,2-dithiol, and optionally with an acidic catalyst, such as hydrogen chloride or zinc chloride, leads to protected aldehydes in the form of their open-chained or ring mercaptals. Lyolysis of compounds of formula IV, in which --C(.dbd.U)R.sup.11 represents a halocarbonyl or an acyloxycarbonyl, with hydrogen sulfide, a thiol or a salt of either with an inorganic or organic base leads to compounds of formula IV in which --C(.dbd.U)R.sup.11 represents a mercaptocarbonyl or thiocarbonic ester. Lyolysis of compounds of formula I, in which A represents a free aldehyde group or acetal, with a secondary amine or amino alcohol, for example ethanolamine or diamine, for example N,N'-dimethylethylenediamine, optionally with a proton donor, leads to compounds of formula I, in which A represents a protected aldehyde group, for example in the form of an animal, an oxazolidine or an imidazolidine; while lyolysis with ammonia or an amine, H.sub.2 N--R.sup.3, leads to compounds of formula I, in which A denotes the group --CH.dbd.NH or --CH.dbd.N--R.sup.3 ; in the latter case optional use is made of inert solvent, which also acts as an entraining agent for azeotropic removal of water, and/or raised temperatures. Lyolysis of compounds of formula I, in which A represents a free aldehyde group, a protected aldehyde group (for example in the form of an acetal, mercaptal, aminal, oxazolidine or similar derivatives) or a reactive derived aldehyde group (for example --CH.dbd.S, --CH.dbd.NH or --CH.dbd. N--R.sup.3) with an amino compound, H.sub.2 N--O--R.sup.4 or ##STR27## in which each of R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 has its previously-ascribed meaning, leads to derived alehydes of formula II in which X represents .dbd.N--O--R.sup.4 or ##STR28## in which R.sup.4, R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 have their previously given meanings. The lyolysis is carried out with equivalent or excess (preferably 1 to 1.2 moles per mole of aldehyde) of amino compound at -10.degree. to 120.degree. C, preferably 15.degree. to 90.degree. C, preferably with organic solvent, for example an amide (such as dimethylformamide or N-methylpyrrolidone), dimethylsulfoxide, an alcohol (such as methanol, ethanol or 2-ethoxyethanol) and, optionally, also with water and/or, preferably, a proton donor, more especially a carboxylic acid, such as acetic acid. Lyolysis of compounds of formula IV [in which --C(.dbd.U)R.sup.11 denotes a carboxylic acid group which is free (R.sup.11 is in this case a hydroxy group), is (preferably) protected (R.sup.11 is, for example, an alkyloxy or aryloxy group) or is reactive and derived (R.sup.11, for example, has the meaning of a halogen atom, acyloxy, alkylmercapto or azido), with the previously-mentioned meaning for U] with an amino compound, ##STR29## or H.sub.2 NR.sup.3, H.sub.2 N--O--R.sup.4, ##STR30## or H.sub.2 N--NR.sup.7.sub.2, leads to a corresponding compound of formula I in which A represents a derived carboxylic acid group --C(.dbd.U)R.sup.11, in which U and R.sup.11 have the meanings given for formula IV. Thus, for example, protected carboxylic acid derivatives, such as esters, of formula IV are reacted with the noted amino compounds with or without a solvent, optionally (if required) at a raised temperature, for example at 50.degree. to 150.degree. C, and/or at a raised pressure, to form amides, hydroxamic acids or hydrazides. Compounds of formula IV, in which --C(.dbd.U)R.sup.11 represents a halocarbonyl or haloimidoyl group, are reacted in an aqueous or organic medium with two equivalents of amino compounds or with one equivalent of amino compound in the presence of an auxiliary base, for example an alkali metal hydroxide, pyridine or triethylamine, at from 0.degree. to 30.degree. C to form amides, hydroxamic acids, hydrazides, amidines, N-hydroxyamidines or hydrazidines, and further reacted with sodium azide to form azides, for example. Lyolysis of the free carboxylic acids of formula I with amino compounds and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide at room temperature in a suitable solvent also leads to corresponding carboxylic acid derivatives of formula IV.
The alkylation or acylation, which optionally follows, is carried out by methods known to those skilled in the art. Thus, for example, compounds of formula I in which R.sup.1 is hydrogen atom are reacted with an alkylating or acylating reagent, R.sup.1 Q, in which R.sup.1 denotes an aliphatic or alicyclic hydrocarbon radical, an aralkyl group or an acyl radical in accordance with the definitions for R.sup.1, and Q denotes the radical or residue of an inorganic or organic acid, for example a halogen atom or an alkylsulfonyloxy or p-tolylsulfonyloxy group, at temperatures between -30.degree. C to 100.degree. C and preferably between -20.degree. C to 60.degree. C, and (if necessary) in a solvent, for example an aromatic hydrocarbon, an alcohol or an aprotic dipolar solvent, such as dimethylformamide, N-methylpyrrolidone or dimethylsulfoxide, and preferably with a basic condensing agent, for example an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal hydroxide, hydride, amide or carbonate, or with an organic nitrogen base, for example pyridine or triethylamine, in which case the alkylating agent is in a molar quantity equal to from 1 to 1.2 times the molar quantity of the substrate. In a similar manner reacting compounds of formula II in which X denotes .dbd.N--OH with compounds, R.sup.4 Q, in which Q has the previously-noted meaning, and R.sup.4 denotes an acyl group with the meaning given therefor in formula II, yields compounds of formula II in which X represents .dbd.N--O--R.sup.4 (with the last-noted meaning of acyl for R.sup.4).
The following optional dehydration, which is employed on compounds of formula I in which A denotes the group --CH.dbd.N--OH or --C(.dbd.O)NH.sub.2, is carried out in a conventional manner, for example by heating or by suitable dehydrating materials, optionally in the presence of inert solvent and/or at raised temperature, and leads to compounds of formula I in formula III form. Exemplary dehydrating agents include: glacial acetic acid, acetoanhydride/sodium acetate or formic acid/sodiumformate at a raised temperature; an acyl halide optionally with pyridine; thionyl chloride, phosphorus oxychloride, phosphorus pentachloride, optionally with dimethylformamide; phosgene, p-toluenesulfonic chloride, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, optionally with organic base; phosphorus pentoxide; dichlorocarbene with a phase transfer catalyst; an isocyanate with a tertiary amine, 1,1'-carbonylbiimidazole; and trichloroacetonitrile. The reaction is optionally also carried out heterogeneously, for example with thionyl chloride in carbon tetrachloride as a solvent. Unstable intermediate stages are optionally isolated in some cases, for example in the case of the reaction of oximes with acid anhydride O-acyloximes or with methyl isocyanate O-methylcarbamoyloximes.
The optionally-ensuing oxidation ot dehydrogenation of compounds of formula 1, in which A denotes a free or derived aldehyde group, is carried out in accord with conventional methods, as in the case of method (c). Thus for example, reacting a free aldehyde of formula II with ammonia and manganese dioxide at a raised temperature yields, via aldimines formed as intermediates, the nitriles of formula III while a similar reaction with amines, HNR.sup.12 R.sup.13, and manganese dioxide in the presence of a sodium cyanide yields compounds of formula IV in which --C(.dbd.U)R.sup.11 denotes the group ##STR31## in which each of R.sup.12 and R.sup.13 have its previously-stated meaning (with exception of hydroxyalkyl).
The production of 4-pyrazolylmethyleneammonium compounds V to be used in method (a), is carried out in various different ways. Thus, for example, in a conventional manner by reaction of 5-nitro-2-acetylfuran with the corresponding hydrazines, H.sub.2 N--NH--R.sup.1, 5-nitro-2-acetylfuranhydrazones are obtained. Reacting these with a Vilsmeier reagent (which is produced from a dialkyl or alkylarylformamide and an acid halide before the reaction or preferably in situ during the reaction) yields 3- or 5-(5-nitro-2-furyl)pyrazole-4-yl-methyleneammonium compounds V. The compounds V are, however, also obtained by reaction of 3- or 5-(5-nitro-2-furyl)pyrazoles with a Vilsmeier reagent. A further method for producing compounds V resides, for example, in reacting 3- or 5-(5-nitro-2-furyl)pyrazoles with hexamethylenetetramine and trifluoroacetic acid in inert solvent, using the method of Duff.
It is surprising that compounds V are also obtained in a single vessel method by reacting 5-nitro-2-acetylfuran with corresponding hydrazines, H.sub.2 N--NH--R.sup.1, in a medium containing a lower alkanoic acid, for example formic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid and (preferably) acetic acid, and thereafter adding a Vilsmeier reagent. In this method it is preferred to react 5-nitro-2-acetylfuran with approximately one mole equivalent of a hydrazine in a dialkyl or alkylarylformamide containing, for example, glacial acetic acid and following this with an acid halide. Exemplary dialkylformamides include diethylformamide, diisopropylformamide, N-formylpiperidine, N-formylpiperazine, or N-formylmorpholine, but preferably dimethylformamide. Suitable alkylarylformamides comprise, for example, N-methyl-N-phenylformamide and N-ethyl-N-tolylformamide. Illustrative acid halides are phosphorus oxybromide, phosgen, thionyl chloride, but preferably phosphorus oxychloride. This method leads to excellent yields providing the reaction is appropriately carried out. The reaction temperatures generally lie between 10.degree. to 50.degree. C, and the reaction times lie between 30 minutes and 24 hours.
The production of furylpyrazole compounds VI to be used in method (b) is in accord with conventional pyrazole syntheses. Thus, for example, furylpyrazoles VI are obtained from corresponding .beta.-diketones or their functional derivatives and hydrazines, as is described, inter alia, in the German Offenlegungsschrift No. 1,809,387 or are obtained by reaction of 2-acetylfuranhydrazones with Vilsmeier reagents.
The production of (5-nitro-2-furyl)pyrazole compounds VII for method (c) is also in accord with conventional methods. Thus, for example, 4-halomethylpyrazoles VII are obtained by halomethylation of corresponding pyrazoles which are not substituted in the 4-position. The 4-halomethylpyrazoles VII are converted with water into the corresponding 4-hydroxymethylpyrazoles VII which, with amines, are converted into the corresponding 4-aminomethylpyrazoles VII.
*) 4-Hydroxymethyl-pyrazoles VII are obtained from the corresponding pyrazole-carboxylic acids by reduction with complexed aluminium hydrides, and 4-halogenmethyl pyrazoles are obtained by reaction of 4-hydroxymethyl pyrazoles with acid halides, such as thionylchloride or phosphorus oxychloride.
In accordance with a preferred optional measure compounds of formula II, in which X denotes an oxygen atom, are reacted in a single vessel method, that is to say in a single stage method, to form compounds of formula III. In this case aldehydes II are first reacted with hydroxylamine, which preferably has been released from its acid addition salts with salts of carboxylic acids, for example alkali-metal acetates, in suitable solvent, for example dialkylformamide or arylalkylformamide, preferably dimethylformamide, in medium containing a proton donor, preferably alkanoic acid, such as acetic acid, and then reacted with a dehydrating agent, for example an acid halide, preferable phosphorus oxychloride. The reaction temperatures generally lie between 10.degree. and 50.degree. C while the reaction times lie between 30 minutes and 24 hours, preferably 2 to 8 hours.
The compounds of this invention are thus prepared as hereinbefore presented from available starting materials or from reactants which are obtained by conventional processes from known starting materials.
The new compounds of formula I, II, III and IV have valuable properties which make them commercially significant. On the one hand the compounds of formula I have strong anti-microbial properties, more particularly in the form of an anti-bacterial, anti-protozoal, anti-helminthic or anti-mycotic efficacy; on the other hand they can be converted into other compounds of formula I and therefore constitute valuable intermediates for the production of anti-microbially effective compounds of formulas I, II, III and IV.
The anti-bacterial efficacy of the compounds in accordance with the invention covers both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Examples of such bacteria include: Micrococcaceae, for example Staphilococcus aureus; Streptococcaceae, for example Streptococcus pyogenes, S. faecalis (Enterococcus); Enterobacteriaceae, for example Escherichiae, E. coli, Klebsiellae, as K. pneumoniae, Proteus, as P. morgagnii, P. mirabilis, P. Rettgeri, Salmonellae, as S. typhimutium, S. enteritidis, Shigella; Pseudomonaceae, as Pseudomonas aeruginosa; Corynebacteriaceae, as Corynebacterium pyogenes; Bacillaceae, as Bacillus subtilis; Clostridiae; Mycobacterium tuberculosis. As protozoa the following are exemplary: Trichomonads, more particularly Trichomonas vaginalis and T. foetus; Amoebae, such as Entamoeba histolytica; Coccidia, such as Eimeria; Plasmodiae; Trypanosomes, like T. brucei, T. rhodesiense, T. gambiense, T. cruzi; Leishmaniae. The following mycetes are also merely illustrative: Yeasts, moulds, dermatophytes and dimorphic fungi. Helminths, such as Trematodes, Cestodes and Nematodes, are also subject to the anti-microbial efficacy of the subject compounds, which retard or preclude the growth of proliferation of these organisms.
The excellent and broad spectrum anti-microbial efficacy of the nitrofurylpyrazoles of formula I makes them useful both in human and in veterinary medicine. They are useful both for prophylaxis against infections and also for treatment of infections which already affect an organism.
As indications for use in human medicine there are both internal and external infections, such as general infections, infections of the urogenital system or of the intestinal tract, infections of the mouth and pharynx, bacterially caused dermatoses, for example pyodermias, abcesses, wound infections, infections of the mucous membranes or for disinfection of healty skin and also for the disinfection of wounds.
As indications for use in veternary medicine there are also external and internal infections, such as infections of the mucous membranes, pyodermias, abcesses, septic wounds, mastidides, infections of the urogenital system and of the intestinal tract, which are subject to treatment with these compounds. As a matter of principle the new compounds are useful for the treatment of all higher members of the animal kingdom and, more particularly, young or adult domestic and farm animals, for example poultry (such as chicks), cats, dogs, rabbits, sheep, pigs, horses and cattle.
The new compounds are also useful as superficial disinfectants. They are likewise useful for the protection of high-molecular weight, hydrophobic or other organic materials or medicinal preparations in order to prevent microbial decomposition; they are thus useful as preserving agents by mixture, bringing into contact, impregnation of an organic material with the compounds, or in some other fashion. The new compounds are also useful as growth-promoting additives for animal feedstuffs. For the several noted uses the compounds are applied in the same manner of previously-known counterparts having similar utility.
The compounds of formula I, in accordance with the type of substitution, involve an anti-microbial spectrum of action with different centers of gravity whereby one of the cited effects, more particularly the anti-bacterial effect (particularly, for example, against the courses of general, urogenital or intestinal infections or external infections) or the anti-protozoal (especially against trichomonad infections) effect or a combination of these effects is emphasized. In accordance with the desired therapeutic effect or one of the mentioned uses one of the compounds of formula I of the desired type of effect is used.
The superior anti-microbial efficacy of compounds of formula I is confirmed by tests in vitro and in vivo, using standard methods, whereby the efficacy of known active substances, for example that of nitrofurantoin, nifuroxazide, nifuratel or metronidazol, was clearly exceeded.
The invention also relates to an anti-microbially effective agent for combatting the courses of human and animal diseases, chacterized by its containing one or more of the new active substances of formulas I, II, III or IV.
The anti-microbially effective agents are produced in accordance with known methods. As medicaments, the new compounds are used as such or, optionally, in combination with suitable pharmaceutical vehicles. If the novel pharmaceutical preparations contain pharmaceutical vehicles in addition to the active substances, the content of active substance of such mixtures comprises 0.1 to 99.5, preferably 0.5 to 95, percent by weight of the overall mixture.
In accordance with the invention the active substances are used in any desired form in human and veterinary fields, for example systematically or topically under the proviso that the formation or maintenance of sufficient antimicrobial blood, secretion or tissue levels or local concentrations of nitrofuryl compounds is ensured. This is achieved either by oral, rectal or parenteral administration in suitable doses. The new medicaments are, however, also administerable intravaginally or locally on the body surface. Advantageously, a pharmaceutical preparation of active substance is provided in the form of uniform doses, which are made up in accordance with the desired administration. A uniform or unit dose is, for example, a tablet, coated pill, a capsule, a suppository, a vaginal ball, a vaginal tablet or a vaginal rod or a measured volumetric quantity of a powder, a granulate, a solution, an emulsion, a suspension, a sol, a gel, an ointment or a cream.
The term "unit dosis" within the meaning of the present invention is understood to mean a physically determined unit, which comprises an individual quantity of the active component in combination with a pharmaceutical vehicle, the content of active substance in the dose being a fraction or a multiple of a therapeutic individual dose. An individual dose preferably comprises the quantity of active substance which is administered in one application and generally amounts to a whole daily dose or to half, a third or a quarter of a daily dose. If, for an individual therapeutic administration, only a fraction, such as a half or a quarter, of the uniform dose is required, the uniform dose is advantageously arranged to be capable of being split, for example in the form of a tablet with a notch for breaking it.
The pharmaceutical preparations in accordance with the invention comprise, when they are provided in the form of uniform doses and for applications, for example on human patients, approximately from 2 to 6000 mg, advantageously from 10 to 2500 mg and, more particularly from 20 to 1200 mg of active substance.
In general it has been found advantageous both in human and also in veterinary medicine to administer the active substance or substances in the case of oral administration in a daily dose of approximately 0.1 to approximately 50, preferably 0.5 to 20 and more particularly 1 to 10, mg/kg of body weight and, if necessary, in the form of several, preferably 1 to 3, individual doses for obtaining the desired results. An individual dose comprises the active substance or substances in quantities between approximately 0.05 and approximately 25, preferably 0.25 to 15 and more particularly 0.5 to 10, mg/kg of body weight per day.
In the case of a parenteral treatment, for example intraperitoneal, similar doses are employed. In the case of mastitis therapy of cows approximately 5 to approximately 500 mg of active substance are applied for each quarter of the udder.
For a local application it is possible to use preparations which comprise approximately 0.01 to approximately 10, preferably 0.05 to 5 and more particularly 0.1 to 1, percent by weight of active substance.
The therapeutic administration of the pharmaceutical preparation is carried out 1 to 4 times daily at fixed times or variable times, for example after the respective meals and/or in the evening. It can, however, be necessary to depart from the above-mentioned doses in accordance with the type, the body weight and the age of the patient being treated, the type and severity of the disease, the type of the preparation and the application of the medicament and the period of time or interval, within which the administration occurs. Thus in some cases it may be sufficient to make use of a quantity of active substance less than that specified, while in other cases the quantities of active substance must be exceeded. The determination of the optimum dosing necessary in each particular case and the type of application of active substances is readily effected by anyone skilled in the art on the basis of his expert knowledge.
The pharmaceutical preparations consist, as a rule, of the active substances (a compound of formula I) in accordance with the invention and nontoxic, pharmaceutically-compatible medicament vehicles, which are used as an admixture or diluent in a solid, semisolid or liquid form or as a casing material, for example in the form of a capsule, a tablet coating, a sachet or another container, for the therapeutically-active component. A vehicle serves, for example, as a means for promoting introduction of the medicament into the body, as an adjuvant for making up a particular prescription, as a sweetening agent, as a substance for changing the flavor, as a dye or as a preserving agent.
Suitable forms for oral administration include tablets, coated pills, hard and soft capsules, for example gelatine, dispersible powders, granulates, aqueous and oily suspensions, emulsions, solutions or syrups.
Tablets comprise inert diluents, for example calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate, sodium phosphate or lactose; granulating and distributing agents, for example maize starch or alginate; binding agents, for example starch, gelatine or gum acacia; and lubricants, such as aluminum or magnesium stearate, talcum or silicone oil. They are optionally additionally provided with a coating made up, e.g., so that it brings about delayed dissolving and resorption of the medicament in the gastrointestinal tract and thus achieves, for example, improved compatibility, protraction or retardation. Gelatin capsules comprise the medicament, e.g., mixed with a solid diluent, for example calcium carbonate or kaolin, or with an oily diluent, for example olive or ground nut oil or liquid paraffin.
Aqueous suspensions comprise, e.g., suspending agents, such as sodium carboxymethylcellulose, methylcellulose, hydroxypropylcellulose, sodium alginate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, gum tragacanth or gum acacia; dispersing and wetting agents, such as polyoxyethylene stearate, heptadecaethyleneoxycetanol, polyoxyethylenesorbitol monooleate, polyoxyethylenesorbitane monooleate or lecithin; preserving agents, such as methyl or propylhydroxybenzoates; flavoring agents; and sweetening agents, such as saccharose, lactose, sodium cyclamate, dextrose, invert sugar syrup.
Oily suspensions comprise, for example, ground nut oil, olive oil, sesame oil, cocoanut oil and liquid paraffin, and thickening agents, for example beeswax, paraffin wax or cetyl alcohol; and, optionally, sweetening agents, flavoring agents and antioxidants.
Powders and granulates, which are dispersible in water, comprise the medicaments, e.g., mixed with dispersing, wetting and suspending agents, such as those hereinbefore mentioned, and sweetening agents, flavoring agents and dyes.
Emulsions comprise, for example, olive oil, ground nut oil or liquid paraffin in addition to emulsifying agents, such as gum acacia, gum tragacanth, phosphatides, sorbitan monooleate and polyoxyethylenesorbitan monooleate as well as sweetening and flavoring materials.
For rectal administration suppositories of the medicaments are useful. These are produced with the help of binding agents, for example cocoa butter and polyethyleneglycols, which fuse at the rectal temperature.
For parenteral administration of the medicaments it is possible to use sterile aqueous suspensions adapted for injection, isotonic salt solutions or other solutions, which can comprise dispersing or wetting agents and/or pharmacologically-compatible diluents, for example propylene or butyleneglycol.
Ointments, pastes, creams, gels, sols, vaginal tablets or rods, e.g., suitable for local treatment, comprise, in addition to the active substance or substances, the conventional vehicles, for example animal and plant fats, waxes, liquid paraffin and paraffin wax, starch, gum tragacanth, cellulose derivatives, polyethyleneglycols, silicones, bentonites, silicic acid, talcum and zinc oxide or mixtures of these materials.
Powders and sprays comprise, in addition to a microbially-effective concentration of one or more active substances of formula I, e.g., the conventional vehicles, for example lactose, talcum, silicic acid, aluminum hydroxide, calcium silicate and polyamide powder or mixtures of these substances. Sprays optionally additionally comprise conventional propellants, for example chlorofluorohydrocarbons. They are applied directly to microorganisms, to areas to be disinfected or to areas to be kept free from microbial contamination.
For infections of the mouth and pharynx alcoholic solutions with from 1 to 5% by weight of active substance (a compound of formula I), and other vehicles, or tablets (which dissolve in the mouth) with from 0.2 to 20% by weight of active substance of formula I, sugar and further vehicles are useful.
The active substance or substances are optionally also furnished in a micro-capsule form with one or more of the noted vehicles.
In addition to the novel nitrofurylpyrazole compounds the pharmaceutical preparations optionally comprise one or more pharmacologically-active components from other groups of medicinal substances, for example steroids, such as oestrogens, e.g. oestradiol benzoate or valerianate, or corticoids, e.g. hydrocortisone; sulfonamides, e.g. sulfanilamide or 6-sulfanilamide-2,4-dimethylpyrimidine; antibiotics, such as penicillins, e.g. penicillin G or ampicillin; cephalosporins, e.g. cephalosporin C; or saccaride antibiotics, e.g. streptomycins, kanamycins or neomycins; or polyene antibiotics, for example nystatin, pimaricin or amphotericin B; or tetracyclines, e.g. Aureomycin.RTM. or Terramycin.RTM.; peptide antibiotics, e.g. bacitracin, chloramphenicol or rifamycins; nitroheterocycles, e.g. nitrothiazoles (niridazole); nitrofurans (nitrofurantoin); or nitropyrimidines (2-amino-5-nitropyrimidine); antimycotics, for example phenolcarboxylic acids (o-hydroxybenzoic acid or p-hydroxybenzoic acid alkyl ester); 8-hydroxyquinolines, e.g. 5-chloro-8-hydroxy-7-iodoquinoline or 5,7-dichloro-2-methyl-8-hydroxyquinoline; 3,4',5-tribromosalicylanilide or other halogenated salicylanilides, halogenated carbanilides, halogenated benzoxazoles or benzoxazolones, polychlorohydroxydiphenylmethanes, halodihydroxydiphenylsulfides, 4,4'-dichloro-2-hydroxydiphenylethers, 2',4,4'-trichloro-2-hydroxydiphenylethers or other polyhalohydroxydiphenylethers or bactericidal quarternary compounds.
The compounds of formula I are optionally used as feedstuff additives for promoting growth and for improving foodstuff utilization in animal breeding, especially in breeding of young animals, such as calves, piglets, chickens and turkeys, and in fattening cattle, such as oxes and cows, pigs, ets.
In this case the administration of the active substance or substances is conveniently via foodstuff and/or drinking water. The active substances are, however, alternatively administered in feedstuffs in the form of concentrates and in preparations comprising vitamins and/or mineral salts.
The new compounds are administered in feedstuff or in drinking water in a concentration between approximately 0.1 and approximately 1000, preferably between 1 and 200 and, more particularly between 20 and 100 ppm by weight.
The mixture with feedstuff optionally in the form of a premix (for example active substance of formula I and wheat flour) or feedstuff concentrate and the remaining feedstuff preparation is carried out according to conventional methods.
A further part of the invention is comprised by a method for the chemotherapy of vertebrates, for example mammals or birds, which is characterized by administering to an infected animal an anti-microbially-effective and pharmacologically-compatible quantity of one or more compounds of formulas I, II, III or IV.
The intermediate products of formulas I, II, III or IV are converted in accordance with the previously-described methods into anti-microbial compounds of formula I, as further illustrated in the following examples. Thus, from the free aldehydes of formula II the aldehyde derivatives of formula II, in which A denotes a protected or derived aldehyde, for example the acetals, the imines, the oximes or the hydrazones, are obtained; in just the same manner the protected and derived aldehydes are converted into free aldehydes. The protected aldehyde derivatives are furthermore employed for the production of the derived aldehydes. The free aldehydes of formula II also serve as starting products for the production of compounds of formula III or formula IV. Nitriles III are employed for producing compounds of formula IV. Compounds of formula I, in which A represents a protected or derived carboxylic acid group, are convertible into corresponding compounds in which A denotes a free carboxylic acid group; in just the same manner compounds IV with a protected carboxylic acid group are convertible into compounds of formula IV in which A denotes a derived carboxylic acid group. Furthermore, compounds of formula IV in which A represents a free carboxylic acid group are useful for the production of compounds IV in which A denotes a protected or derived carboxylic acid group. Oximes of formula II and amides of formula IV are useful for producing corresponding compounds of formula III. Compounds of formula I (in which R.sup.1 denotes a hydrogen atom) are useful for producing compounds of formula I in which R.sup.1 denotes an aliphatic or alicyclic hydrocarbon radical, aralkyl or acyl. Compounds of formula I (in which R.sup.1 denotes an acyl radical) are useful for producing compounds of formula I in which R.sup.1 denotes a hydrogen atom.

Throughout the disclosure of compounds and structures thereof the nature of contemplated molecular substitution is virtually unlimited. Only illustrative substituents are indicated and exemplified. The sole limitation with regard to substituents is that they must not negate the usefulness of the compound for its intended purpose. For any compound which is to be used as a medicament, the molecular substitution thereon cannot be such as to render the compound unduly toxic or to negate the activity upon which the medicament utility is predicated. Those compounds which are internally, e.g. orally or parenterally administered to, e.g., mammals are therapeutically active and pharmacologically acceptable.
The invention encompasses all antimicrobially-active pyrazoles, the molecular structures of which have a pyrazole ring substituted by 5-nitro-2-furyl on a ring carbon atom ortho to one pyrazole-ring nitrogen atom and unsubstituted on the ring carbon atom ortho to the other pyrazole-ring nitrogen atom, the remaining carbon atom of that pyrazole ring bearing a carboxylic acid group or a derivative thereof. The derivative is, e.g., a salt (such as an alkali-metal salt, e.g. sodium salt) or an ester (such as a lower-alkyl ester, e.g. methyl ester) of the carboxylic acid or any of the other indicated meanings or variants thereof.
There is one term which is used in the working examples in a sense different from that in the descriptive portion of the specification. In the description of molecular structure "residue" has the meaning indicated on page 7 of the specification; in the working examples this word refers to separated precipitate or filter cake.
The preceding disclosure adequately apprises those of ordinary skill in the relevant art:
a. what the subject invention is, including its metes and bounds;
b. how to make and use the novel compounds from known chemicals or from chemicals which are synthesized by established and recognized procedures from available starting materials;
c. how to prepare the novel compositions; and
d. how to use the compounds and the compositions,
and makes it clear that changes in structure and composition components are readily made without departing from the spirit or scope of the instant teachings.
