[0049] The following describes the preparation of compounds of the present invention. All of the starting materials are prepared by procedures described herein or by procedures that would be well known to one of ordinary skill in organic chemistry.

[0050] As shown in CHART I, nitrobenzosultam 1, (can be obtained according to the methods described in J. Het. Chem. 1986, 23, 1645), is first converted to a sodium salt by treatment with a suitable base such as sodium bicarbonate. The nitrogen at the 1-position can then be alkylated by treatment with a variety of alkylating agents including alkyl halides and heating in a suitable solvent such as DMF. These compounds of general structure 2 can be reduced by catalytic hydrogenation in the presence of a suitable catalyst such as palladium on carbon in a suitable solvent such as ethyl acetate, THF, methanol or combinations thereof to afford 5-aminobenzosultams 3. When 3 are treated with magnesium triflate and N-[(2S)oxiranylmethyl] acetamide, prepared by the method of Schaus and Jacobsen (Tetrahedron Lett. 1996, 37, 7937), in a suitable solvent, preferably acetonitrile, the chiral alcohols 4 can be obtained. These compounds can be cyclized to the desired oxazolidinones 5 by reaction with a carbonyl equivalent such as carbonyl diimidazole or preferably N,N′-disuccinimidyl carbonate with an appropriate base such as triethylamine in a mixed solvent system such as acetonitrile/DMF. Additionally, these oxazolidinone amides can be reacted with a sulfurating agent such as Lawesson's Reagent in an appropriate solvent such as THF to obtain the corresponding thioamides 6.

[0051] In CHART II, the compounds wherein n=2 can be prepared from the known intermediate 7 (Sianesi, E. et al. Chem. Ber. 1971, 104, 1880). Nitration of structure 7 provides structure 8. The remaining synthetic steps which lead to structure 9 are similar to the procedures outlined in CHART I.

[0052] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the described synthetic procedures are merely representative in nature and that alternative synthetic processes are known to one of ordinary skill in organic chemistry.

[0053] The pharmaceutical compositions of this invention may be prepared by combining the compounds of formula I of this invention with a solid or liquid pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and, optionally, with pharmaceutically acceptable adjuvants and excipients employing standard and conventional techniques. Solid form compositions include powders, tablets, dispersible granules, capsules, cachets and suppositories. A solid carrier can be at least one substance which may also function as a diluent, flavoring agent, solubilizer, lubricant, suspending agent, binder, tablet disintegrating agent, and encapsulating agent. Inert solid carriers include magnesium carbonate, magnesium stearate, talc, sugar, lactose, pectin, dextrin, starch, gelatin, cellulosic materials, low melting wax, cocoa butter, and the like. Liquid form compositions include solutions, suspensions and emulsions. For example, there may be provided solutions of the compounds of this invention dissolved in water and water-propylene glycol and water-polyethylene glycol systems, optionally containing suitable conventional coloring agents, flavoring agents, stabilizers and thickening agents.

[0054] Preferably, the pharmaceutical composition is provided employing conventional techniques in unit dosage form containing effective or appropriate amounts of the active component, that is, the compounds of formula I according to this invention.

[0055] The quantity of active component, that is the compound of formula I according to this invention, in the pharmaceutical composition and unit dosage form thereof may be varied or adjusted widely depending upon the particular application, the potency of the particular compound and the desired concentration. Generally, the quantity of active component will range between 0.5% to 90% by weight of the composition.

[0056] In therapeutic use for treating, or combating, bacterial infections in warm-blooded animals, the compounds or pharmaceutical compositions thereof will be administered orally, topically, transdermally, and/or parenterally at a dosage to obtain and maintain a concentration, that is, an amount, or blood-level of active component in the animal undergoing treatment which will be antibacterially effective. Generally, such antibacterially effective amount of dosage of active component will be in the range of about 0.1 to about 500, preferably about 1.0 to about 50 mg/kg of body weight/day. It is to be understood that the dosages may vary depending upon the requirements of the patient, the severity of the bacterial infection being treated, and the particular compound being used. Also, it is to be understood that the initial dosage administered may be increased beyond the above upper level in order to rapidly achieve the desired blood-level or the initial dosage may be smaller than the optimum and the daily dosage may be progressively increased during the course of treatment depending on the particular situation. If desired, the daily dose may also be divided into multiple doses for administration, e.g., two to four times per day.

[0057] The compounds of formula I according to this invention are administered parenterally, i.e., by injection, for example, by intravenous injection or by other parenteral routes of administration. Pharmaceutical compositions for parenteral administration will generally contain a pharmaceutically acceptable amount of the compound according to formula I as a soluble salt (acid addition salt or base salt) dissolved in a pharmaceutically acceptable liquid carrier such as, for example, water-for-injection and a buffer to provide a suitably buffered isotonic solution, for example, having a pH of about 3.5-6. Suitable buffering agents include, for example, trisodium orthophosphate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium citrate, N-methylglucamine, L(+)-lysine and L(+)-arginine to name but a few representative buffering agents. The compounds according to formula I generally will be dissolved in the carrier in an amount sufficient to provide a pharmaceutically acceptable injectable concentration in the range of about 1 mg/ml to about 400 mg/ml of solution. The resulting liquid pharmaceutical composition will be administered so as to obtain the above-mentioned antibacterially effective amount of dosage. The compounds of formula I according to this invention are advantageously administered orally in solid and liquid dosage forms.

[0058] In cases where compounds are sufficiently basic or acidic to form stable nontoxic acid or base salts, administration of the compounds as salts may be appropriate. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts are organic acid addition salts formed with acids which form a physiological acceptable anion, for example, tosylate, methanesulfonate, acetate, citrate, malonate, tartarate, succinate, benzoate, ascorbate, α-ketoglutarate, maleate, fumarate, benzenesulfonate and α-glycerophosphate. Suitable inorganic salts may also be formed, including hydrobromide, hydrochloride, sulfate, nitrate, bicarbonate, and carbonate salts.
