Process for preparing a 2-oxo-1-azetidinesulfonic acid salt

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The .beta.-lactam ring, ##STR1## has been known since the late nineteenth century. While knowledge of .beta.-lactam chemistry developed during the early 1900's, it was not until 1929 that Fleming reported in Brit. J. Exper. Pathol., 10, 226 (1929) that a fermentation product of the organism Penicillium notatum had antibiotic properties. The compound which Fleming had worked with was benzylpenicillin, ##STR2## The in vivo activity of benzylpenicillin against various bacteria was reported by Chain et al. in Lancet, 2:226 (1940).
During the early 1940's research in the field of penicillins was intense. This research focused first on structure elucidation and then on synthetic routes for preparing benzyl penicillin. It was not, however, until the late 1950's that a totally synthetic route was discovered for the preparation of benzyl penicillin.
U.S. Pat. No. 2,941,955, issued June 21, 1960, to Doyle et al., discloses the discovery of 6-aminopenicillanic acid, ##STR3## This patent was followed by U.S. Pat. No. 2,951,839, issued Sept. 6, 1960, also to Doyle et al., which discloses the use of 6-aminopenicillanic acid as a valuable intermediate which could be acylated, using art-recognized procedures, to obtain penicillin derivatives having antibiotic properties. Using 6-aminopenicillanic as a stepping stone, research chemists have prepared numerous penicillin derivatives having antibiotic activity.
The second major class of .beta.-lactam antibiotics is the cephalosporins. In the 1940's a Cephalosporium species was found to produce an antibiotic that had activity against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Work in the 1950's showed that the fermentation product of a Cephalosporium species contained not one, but several antibiotics. One of these antibiotics, cephalsporin C, ##STR4## proved to be an important stepping stone in cephalosporin research. Removal of the acyl group in the 7-position of cephalosporin C yields 7-aminocephalosporanic acid, ##STR5## an intermediate useful for the preparation of numerous acylated compounds which are analogs of cephalosporin C.
The penicillins and cephalosporins are, of course, the most important of the .beta.-lactam antibiotics reported to date. Others have, however, been reported. Stapley et al., Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2(3):122 (1972) disclose that certain actinomycete cultures isolated from soil produce antibiotics characterized by a methoxy group and D-.alpha.-aminoadipic acid on the 7-carbon of the cephem nucleus. The cephamycins, as they are known, have the formula ##STR6## Stapley et al. reported that cephamycin A and cephamycin B exhibits a similar range of potencies against gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria, and cephamycin C had greater potency against gram-negative bacteria than against gram-positive bacteria. Cephamycin C was reported to be the most active of the three antibiotics.
Scannell et al., The Journal of Antibiotics, XXVIII(1):1 (1975), disclose the isolation from a fermentation broth of Streptomyces species 372A of (S)-alanyl-3-[.alpha.-(S)-chloro-3-(S)-hydroxy-2-oxo-3-azetidinyl-methyl]-(S)-alanine, which has the formula ##STR7##
The structure of the above naturally occurring monocyclic .beta.-lactam containing molecule is similar to the structure of the earlier discovered .beta.-lactam containing molecules known as tabotoxins, i.e., ##STR8## wherein X is hydrogen or methyl as reported by Stewart, Nature, 229:174 (1971), and Taylor et al., Biochem. Biophys. Acta., 286:107 (1972).
Recently, several novel series of naturally occurring .beta.-lactam antibiotics have been isolated. The nocardicins, nocardicin A and B, are monocyclic .beta.-lactams having the formula ##STR9## as reported by Hashimoto et al., The Journal of Antibiotics, XXIX (9):890 (1976).
Clavulanic acid, a bicyclic .beta.-lactam antibiotic isolated from fermentation broths of Streptomyces clavuligerus, has the formula ##STR10## i.e., Z-(2R,5R)-3-(.beta.-hydroxyethylidene)-7-oxo-4-oxa-1-azabicyclo[3,2,0]heptane-2-carboxylic acid, as reported by Lloyd et al., J.C.S. Chem. Comm., 266 (1976).
Still another recently isolated .beta.-lactam antibiotic is thienamycin, an antibiotic isolated from the fermentation broths of Streptomyces cattleya. As reported by Albers-Schonberg et al., J.A.C.S., 100:20, 6491 (1978), thienamycin has the structure ##STR11##
Additional fused .beta.-lactams, olivanic acid derivatives, have recently been isolated from cultures of Streptomyces olivaceus. As disclosed by Brown et al., J.C.S. Chem. Comm., these olivanic acid derivatives have the formulas ##STR12## The isolation of the above antibiotics, and a discussion of their activity, is reported by Butterworth et al., The Journal of Antibiotics, XXXII(4):294 (1979) and by Hood et al., The Journal of Antibiotics, XXXII(4):295 (1979).
Another recently isolated .beta.-lactam antibiotic is PS-5, reported by Okamura et al., The Journal of Antibiotics, XXXI: 480 (1978) and The Journal of Antibiotics, XXXII(4):262 (1979). The structure of this antibiotic, which is produced by Streptomyces cremeus subspecies auratilis, is reported to be ##STR13## Structurally related antibiotics PS-6 and PS-7 are reported in European patent application Ser. No. 1,567 to have the respective structures ##STR14##

The term "cation", as used throughout the specification, refers to any positively charged atom or group of atoms. The "--SO.sub.3.sup..crclbar. M.sup..sym. " substituent on the nitrogen atom of the .beta.-lactams of this invention encompasses all sulfonic acid salts. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are, of course, preferred, although other salts are also useful in purifying the products of this invention or as intermediates for the preparation of pharmaceutically acceptable salts. The cationic portion of the sulfonic acid salts of this invention can be obtained from either organic or inorganic bases. Such cationic portion includes, but is not limited to, the following ions: ammonium; substituted ammonium, such as alkylammonium (e.g., tetra-n-butylammonium, referred to hereinafter as tetrabutylammonium); alkali metal, such as lithium, sodium and potassium; alkaline earth metal, such as calcium and magnesium; pyridinium; dicyclohexylammonium; hydrabaminium; benzathinium; N-methyl-D-glucaminium.
As set forth in formula I, and in the definitions following formula I, M.sup..sym. can be hydrogen provided the R.sub.1 group contains a basic function. Such compounds are often referred to in the art as "inner salts" by virtue of a positive and negative charge in the molecule.
As is described hereinafter, the .beta.-lactams of this invention can be prepared by synthetic means. The non-alkoxylated 4-unsubstituted .beta.-lactams of formula I, i.e., those compounds of formula I wherein R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are hydrogen can be prepared using 6-aminopenicillanic acid or a 6-acylaminopenicillanic acid as a starting material. The .beta.-lactams of formula I wherein R.sub.2 is alkoxy can be prepared from the corresponding non-alkoxylated .beta.-lactam. Some of the compounds of this invention may be crystallized or recrystallized from solvents containing water. In these cases water of hydration may be formed. This invention contemplates stoichiometric hydrates as well as compounds containing variable amounts of water that may be produced by processes such as lyophilization.
Some of the .beta.-lactams of formula I have also been prepared by biological means. Cultivation of a strain of the microorganism Chromobacterium violaceum SC 11,378, yields a salt of (R)-3-(acetylamino)-3-methoxy-2-oxo-1-azetidinesulfonic acid. Cultivation of various acetic acid bacteria, e.g., Gluconobacter species SC 11,435, yields a salt of (R)-3-[[N-(D-.gamma.-glutamyl)-D-alanyl]amino]-3-methoxy-2-oxo-1-azetidinesulfonic acid.
.beta.-Lactams having a sulfonic acid salt substituent in the 1-position and an amino or acylamino substituent in the 3-position contain at least one chiral center--the carbon atom (in the 3-position of the .beta.-lactam nucleus) to which the amino or acylamino substituent is attached. This invention is directed to those .beta.-lactams which have been described above, wherein the stereochemistry at the chiral center in the 3-position of the .beta.-lactam nucleus is the same as the configuration at the carbon atom in the 6-position of naturally occurring penicillins (e.g., penicillin G) and as the configuration at the carbon atom in the 7-position of naturally occurring cephamycins (e.g., cephamycin C).
With respect to the preferred .beta.-lactams of formulas I and Ia, the structural formulas have been drawn to show the stereochemistry at the chiral center in the 3-position. Because of the nomenclature convention, those compounds of formulas I and Ia wherein R.sub.2 is hydrogen have the S configuration and those compounds of formulas I and Ia wherein R.sub.2 is alkoxy have the R configuration.
Also included within the scope of this invention are racemic mixtures with contain the above-described .beta.-lactams.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
.beta.-Lactams having a sulfonic acid salt substituent in the 1-position of the .beta.-lactam nucleus and an acylamino substituent in the 3-position of the .beta.-lactam nucleus have activity against a range of gram-negative and gram-positive organisms. The sulfonic acid salt substituent is essential to the activity of the compounds of this invention.
The compounds of this invention can be used as agents to combat bacterial infections (including urinary tract infections and respiratory infections) in mammalian species, such as domesticated animals (e.g., dogs, cats, cows, horses, and the like) and humans.
For combating bacterial infections in mammals a compound of this invention can be administered to a mammal in need thereof in an amount of about 1.4 mg/kg/day to about 350 mg/kg/day, preferably about 14 mg/kg/day to about 100 mg/kg/day. All modes of administration which have been used in the past to deliver penicillins and cephalosporins to the site of the infection are also contemplated for use with the novel family of .beta.-lactams of this invention. Such methods of administration include oral, intravenous, intramuscular, and as a suppository.
Synthetic Production of Compounds of This Invention
The .beta.-lactams of this invention can be prepared by synthetic means. An --SO.sub.3.sup..crclbar. M.sup..sym. substituent can be introduced onto the nitrogen atom of a .beta.-lactam nucleus having a 3-acylamino substituent by reacting the precursor compound with a complex of pyridine and sulfur trioxide, dimethylformamide and sulfur trioxide or 2,6-lutidine and sulfur trioxide (preformed or formed in situ). This method yields 2-oxo-1-azetidinesulfonic acid salts, which, using conventional techniques can be converted to other salts.
An alternative procedure for introducing an --SO.sub.3.sup..crclbar. M.sup..sym. substituent onto the nitrogen atom of a .beta.-lactam nucleus comprises first silylating the precursor compound and then subjecting the silated compound to a silyl interchange reaction with trimethylsilyl chlorosulfonate or similar reagent.
These general procedures and alternative procedures, are described in greater detail in the following two sections of the "Detailed Description of the Invention" and in the specific embodiments of the examples.
Synthetic Production of Products of Formula I Wherein R.sub.2 is Hydrogen
The .beta.-lactams of formula I wherein R.sub.2 is hydrogen can be prepared from a 3-benzyloxycarbonylamino-2-azetidinone having the formula ##STR33## or from corresponding 2-azetidinones having other (e.g., triphenylmethyl)nitrogen protecting groups.
The addition of a sulfo (SO.sub.3.sup.-) group to the 1-position of the compound of formula II yields a compound having the formula ##STR34## The compound of formula III is not only an antibiotic product of formula I, but also is a valuable intermediate for the preparation of other products of formula I.
One method for introducing the sulfo group to the 1-position of a 3-benzyloxycarbonylamino-2-azetidinone (formula II) comprises reacting the compound with a complex of pyridine and sulfur trioxide. The reaction can be run in an organic solvent or in a mixture of organic solvents, preferably a mixture of a polar solvent such as dimethylformamide and a halogenated hydrocarbon such as dichloromethane. This reaction yields a compound of formula III wherein M.sup..sym. is pyridinium ion. Instead of using a pre-formed complex of pyridine and sulfur trioxide, the complex can be formed in situ, e.g., using chlorosulfonyltrimethylsilyl ester and pyridine as reagents. Alternatively, a complex of dimethylformamide-sulfur trioxide or 2,6-lutidine-sulfur trioxide can be used.
Using conventional techniques (e.g., ion-exchange resins, crystallization, or ion-pair extraction) the pyridinium salt formed by the above procedure can be converted to other salts. These techniques are also useful for converting the products of formula I or any of the intermediates described herein to other salts.
A second method for introducing the sulfo group to the 1-position of a 3-benzyloxycarbonylamino-2-azetidinone (formula II) comprises first silylating the compound and then subjecting the silated compound to a silyl interchange reaction. Exemplary silylating agents are monosilyltrifluoroacetamide, trimethylsilylchloride/triethylamine, and bis-trimethylsilyltrifluoroacetamide, and an exemplary reagent useful for the silyl interchange reaction is trimethylsilyl chlorosulfonate.
A salt of a 3-(benzyloxycarbonylamino)-1-sulfo-2-azetidinone (formula III) can be converted to the key intermediate ##STR35## i.e., a salt of a 3-amino-1-sulfo-2-azetidinone. From this key intermediate, using conventional acylation techniques, it is possible to prepare all of the products of formula I wherein R.sub.2 is hydrogen.
In converting a salt of a 3-(benzyloxycarbonylamino)-1-sulfo-2-azetidinone (formula III) to a salt of formula IV it is desirable to utilize a soluble salt, such as the tetrabutylammonium salt. Reduction of a salt of formula III to the intermediate of formula IV can be accomplished by catalytic (e.g., palladium on charcoal) hydrogenation.
Exemplary acylation techniques for converting a compound of formula IV to a product of formula I wherein R.sub.2 is hydrogen include reaction with a carboxylic acid (R.sub.1 --OH), or corresponding carboxylic acid halide or carboxylic acid anhydride. The reaction with a carboxylic acid proceeds most readily in the presence of a carbodiimide such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and a substance capable of forming an active ester in situ such as N-hydroxybenzotriazole. In those instances when the acyl group (R.sub.1) contains reactive functionality (such as amino or carboxyl groups) it may be necessary to first protect those functional groups, then carry out the acylation reaction, and finally deprotect the resulting product.
An alternative synthesis for preparing the compounds of formula I wherein R.sub.2 is hydrogen comprises a reduction of a 3-benzyloxycarbonylamino-2-azetidinone (formula II) to yield ##STR36## i.e., a 3-amino-2-azetidinone. The reduction can be accomplished by catalytic (e.g., palladium on charcoal) hydrogenation. A 3-amino-2-azetidinone (formula V) can be acylated using conventional acylation techniques (these have been exemplified above the process description for converting a compound of formula IV to a product of formula I) to yield an intermediate having the formula ##STR37## A sulfo group can be introduced in the 1-position of a compound of formula VI using either of the techniques described above for introducing a sulfo group in the 1-position of a 3-benzyloxycarbonylamino-2-azetidinone of formula II (i.e., reaction with a complex of either pyridine, dimethylformamide, or 2,6-lutidine and sulfur trioxide, or silylation followed by a silyl interchange reaction).
Still another synthesis for preparing the compounds of formula I wherein R.sub.2 is hydrogen comprises the use of a 3-azido-2-azetidinone having the formula ##STR38## A sulfo group can be introduced in the 1-position of a compound of formula VII using either of the techniques described above for introducing a sulfo group in the 1-position of a 3-benzyloxycarbonylamino-2-azetidinone of formula II (i.e., reaction with a complex of either pyridine, dimethylformamide, or 2,6-lutidine and sulfur trioxide, or silylation followed by a silyl interchange reaction) yielding an intermediate having the formula ##STR39## i.e., a salt of a 3-azido-1-sulfo-2-azetidinone. Reduction of an intermediate of formula VIII yields the corresponding intermediate having the formula ##STR40## The reduction can be accomplished by catalytic (e.g., palladium on charcoal or platinum oxide) hydrogenation or with reducing agents such as zinc or triphenylphosphine. As described above, from these key intermediates (compounds of formula IV), using conventional acylation techniques, it is possible to prepare all of the products of formula I wherein R.sub.2 is hydrogen.
Alternatively, a 3-azido-2-azetidinone of formula VII can be reduced to the corresponding 3-amino-2-azetidinone having the formula ##STR41## The reduction can be accomplished by catalytic (e.g., palladium on charcoal or platinum oxide) hydrogenation or with reducing agents such as zinc or triphenylphosphine. A 3-amino-2-azetidinone of formula V can be reacted as described above (i.e., first acylated and then treated as described above to introduce a sulfo group in the 1-position) to yield the products of formula I wherein R.sub.2 is hydrogen.
Still another synthesis for preparing the compounds of formula I wherein R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are each hydrogen utilizes a 6-acylaminopenicillanic acid having the formula ##STR42## or a salt thereof as the starting material. By adapting procedures described in the literature, 3-acylamino-2-azetidinone can be obtained from the corresponding 6-acylaminopenicillanic acid of formula IX: see, for example, Chem. Soc. Special Publication No. 28, pg. 288 (1977), The Chemistry of Penicillins, Princeton University Press, pg. 257, and Synthesis, 494 (1977).
As described in the literature 6-acylaminopenicillanic acid, or a salt thereof, can be desulfurized to yield a compound having the formula ##STR43## by reduction using Raney nickel. The reaction can be run in water under reflux conditions.
Replacement of the carboxyl group of a compound of formula X with an acetate group followed by hydrolysis yields the corresponding 3-acylamino-2-azetidinone having the formula ##STR44## Treatment of a compound of formula X with cupric acetate and lead tetraacetate in an organic solvent (e.g., acetonitrile) replaces the carboxyl group with an acetate group. Hydrolysis of the resulting compound can be accomplished using potassium carbonate in the presence of sodium borohydride.
A sulfo group can be introduced in the 1-position of a compound of formula XI (yielding products of formula I wherein R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are each hydrogen) using either of the techniques described above for introducing a sulfo group in the 1-position of a 3-benzyloxycarbonylamino-2-azetidinone of formula II (i.e., reaction with a complex of either pyridine, dimethylformamide, or 2,6-lutidine and sulfur trioxide, or silylation followed by a silyl interchange reaction).
Still another variation of the above-described synthetic routes for preparing a compound of this invention (formula I) wherein R.sub.2, R.sub.3, and R.sub.4 are each hydrogen comprises first desulfurizing 6-aminopenicillanic acid, acylating the resulting compound to yield a compound of formula X and then proceeding as described above to obtain first a 3-acylamino-2-azetidinone of formula XI and then a product of formula I.
The azetidinones of formula I wherein R.sub.2 is hydrogen and at least one of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is hydrogen can also be prepared from amino acids having the formula ##STR45## (at least one of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is hydrogen). The amino group is first protected with a classical protecting group, e.g., t-butoxycarbonyl (referred to hereinafter as "Boc"). The carboxyl group of the protected amino acid is then reacted with an amine having the formula ##STR46## wherein Y is alkyl or benzyl, in the presence of a carbodiimide to yield a compound having the formula ##STR47## (at least one of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is hydrogen). The hydroxyl group of a compound of formula XIV is converted to a leaving group with a classical reagent, e.g., methanesulfonyl chloride (methanesulfonyl is referred to hereinafter as "Ms").
The fully protected compound having the formula ##STR48## (at least one of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is hydrogen) is cyclized by treatment with base, e.g., potassium carbonate. The reaction is preferably carried out in an organic solvent such as acetone, under reflux conditions, and yields a compound having the formula ##STR49## (at least one of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is hydrogen).
Alternatively, cyclization of a compound of formula XIV can be accomplished without first converting the hydroxyl group to a leaving group. Treatment of a compound of formula XIV with triphenylphosphine and diethylazodicarboxylate, yields a compound of formula XVI wherein at least one of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is hydrogen.
Both of the methods disclosed above for ring closure of a compound of formula XIV result in the inversion of the stereochemistry at the carbon atom bearing the R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 substituents.
Removal of the protecting group from the 1-position of an azetidinone of formula XVI can be accomplished via sodium reduction when Y is alkyl, and yields an intermediate having the formula ##STR50## (at least one of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is hydrogen). If Y is benzyl, catalytic (e.g., palladium on charcoal) hydrogenation will initially yield the corresponding N-hydroxy compound, which upon treatment with titanium trichloride yields an intermediate of formula XVII wherein at least one of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is hydrogen.
A sulfo group can be introduced in the 1-position of a compound of formula XVII using either of the techniques described above for introducing a sulfo group in the 1-position of a 3-benzyloxycarbonylamino-2-azetidinone of formula II (i.e., reaction with a complex of either pyridine, dimethylformamide, or 2,6-lutidine and sulfur trioxide, or silylation followed by a silyl interchange reaction) yielding a compound having the formula ##STR51## (at least one of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is hydrogen).
Deprotection of a sulfonated azetidinone of formula XVIII by standard procedures (for a Boc protecting group treatment with formic acid is effective) yields a zwitterion having the formula ##STR52## (at least one of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is hydrogen). Conventional acylation techniques can be employed to convert a zwitterion of formula XIX to the corresponding product of formula I.
An alternative procedure for preparing a compound of formula I wherein R.sub.2 is hydrogen and at least one of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is hydrogen, utilizes as a starting material an amino acid amide having the formula ##STR53## (at least one of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is hydrogen). Protection of the amino group with a classical protecting group, e.g., benzyloxycarbonyl (referred to hereinafter as Z) or Boc, and conversion of the hydroxyl group to a leaving group Ms yields a compound having the formula ##STR54## (at least one of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is hydrogen), wherein A is a protecting group.
Sulfation of a compound of formula XXI with a complex of 2-picoline and sulfur trioxide yields a compound having the formula ##STR55## (at least one of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is hydrogen). The complex of 2-picoline and sulfur trioxide can be prepared by reacting chlorosulfonic acid and 2-picoline in an organic solvent, e.g., a halogenated hydrocarbon such as methylene chloride, at a reduced temperature.
Cyclization of a compound of formula XXII is accomplished with base, e.g., potassium carbonate. The reaction is preferably carried out in a mixture of water and an organic solvent (e.g., a halogenated hydrocarbon such as 1,2-dichloroethane) under reflux conditions and yields a compound having the formula ##STR56## (at least one of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is hydrogen).
Deprotection of a sulfonated azetidinone of formula XXIII, wherein A is a Z protecting group, by catalytic hydrogenation yields a compound having the formula ##STR57## (at least one of R.sub.2 and R.sub.4 is hydrogen), which can be converted to the corresponding zwitterion having the formula ##STR58## (at least one of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is hydrogen) by treatment with formic acid.
Deprotection of a sulfonated azetidinone of formula XXIII wherein A is a Boc protecting group using acidic conditions (e.g., using formic acid) yields the corresponding zwitterion of formula XIX.
The starting azetidinones of formulas II and VII are obtainable using any one of numerous procedures.
3-Benzyloxycarbonylamino-2-azetidinone (formula II, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are each hydrogen) can be obtained from 6-aminopenicillanic acid or a salt thereof, utilizing the adapted literature procedures described above (for the conversion of 6-acylaminopenicillanic acid to 3-acylamino-2-azetidinone) to obtain the compound having the formula ##STR59##
Acylation of the compound of formula XXV to obtain the corresponding 3-benzyloxycarbonylamino derivative having the formula ##STR60## can be accomplished using art-recognized acylation techniques and reagents, e.g., benzyl chloroformate, phenylbenzylcarbonate or p-nitrophenylbenzylcarbonate.
Replacement of the carboxyl group of the compound of formula XXVI with an acetate group followed by hydrolysis yields 3-benzyloxycarbonylamino-2-azetidinone (formula II, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are each hydrogen). Treatment of a compound of formula XXVI with cupric acetate and lead tetraacetate in an organic solvent (e.g., acetonitrile) replaces the carboxyl group with an acetate group. Hydrolysis of the resulting compound can be accomplished using potassium carbonate in the presence of sodium borohydride.
A 3-azido-2-azetidinone of formula VII can be prepared by first reacting an olefin having the formula ##STR61## with a halosulfonylisocyanate (preferably chlorosulfonylisocyanate) having the formula ##STR62## to yield an azetidinone having the formula ##STR63## Reductive hydrolysis of an azetidinone of formula XXIX yields an N-unsubstituted .beta.-lactam having the formula ##STR64## For a more detailed description of the above described reaction sequence reference can be made to the literature; see, for example, Chem. Soc. Rev., 5, 181 (1976) and J. Org. Chem., 35, 2043 (1970).
An azido group can be introduced in the 3-position of an azetidinone of formula XXX by reaction of the compound with an arylsulfonyl azide (such as toluenesulfonyl azide) to obtain a starting azetidinone having the formula ##STR65## The reaction proceeds best by first protecting the azetidinone nitrogen with a silyl residue (e.g., t-butyldimethylsilyl, or t-butyldiphenylsilyl), then generating the anion at the 3-position of the nucleus with a strong organic base (e.g., lithium diisopropylamine) at a low temperature, and then treating the anion with toluenesulfonyl azide. The resulting intermediate is quenched with trimethylsilyl chloride, and subsequent acid hydrolysis or fluoride solvolysis of the N-protecting group yields the compound of formula VII.
A 3-azido-2-azetidinone of formula VII wherein R.sub.4 is hydrogen can be prepared by first reacting a primary amine having the formula ##STR66## with an aldehyde having the formula ##STR67## (or a hemiacetal) to yield the corresponding Schiff base. A [2+2] cycloaddition reaction of the Schiff base with an activated form of .alpha.-azidoacetic acid yields a 3-azido-2-azetidinone having the formula ##STR68## wherein Q is ##STR69## Oxidative removal of the 1-substituent yields the corresponding compound having the formula ##STR70##
A compound of formula II wherein R.sub.4 is hydrogen can be obtained using a procedure analogous to that described above for the preparation of a 3-azido-2-azetidinone of formula VII wherein R.sub.4 is hydrogen. In place of an activated form of .alpha.-azidoacetic acid, an activated form of .alpha.-phthalimidoacetic acid is used, yielding a compound having the formula ##STR71## Reaction of a compound of formula XXXV with a reagent such as methyl hydrazine (to cleave the phthaloyl group), followed by the introduction of a benzyloxycarbonyl protecting group on the 3-nitrogen substituent, and oxidative removal of the 1-protecting group will yield a compound of formula II wherein R.sub.4 is hydrogen.
An alternative procedure for preparing a compound of formula II (or corresponding 2-azetidinone with a different protecting group for the 3-nitrogen containing substituent), wherein one of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is hydrogen, and the other is alken-1-yl, alkyn-1-yl, 2-phenylethenyl or 2-phenylethynyl, utilizes a starting material having the formula ##STR72## wherein A is a nitrogen protecting group (triphenylmethyl is preferred) and X is alkyl or phenyl. Reaction of a compound of formula XXXVI with 1 equivalent of a methyl Grignard reagent followed by slightly more than 1 equivalent of the appropriate Grignard reagent having the formula ##STR73## wherein R is alkyl, alken-1-yl, alkyn-1-yl, 2-phenylethenyl or 2-phenylethynyl, yields a compound having the formula ##STR74##
The 3-benzyloxycarbonylamino-2-azetidinones of formula II can be obtained by first reducing a 3-azido-2-azetidinone of formula VII to obtain the corresponding 3-amino-2-azetidinone and then acylating the 3-amino-2-azetidinone to obtain the corresponding compound having the formula ##STR75##
Synthetic Production of Products of Formula I Wherein R.sub.2 is Alkoxy
The .beta.-lactams of formula I wherein R.sub.2 is alkoxy can be prepared from the corresponding compound of formula I wherein R.sub.2 is hydrogen. Halogenation of the amide nitrogen of a nonalkoxylated compound of formula I yields an intermediate having the formula ##STR76## Reagents and procedures for N-chlorinating amides are known in the art. Exemplary reagents are tert.-butyl hypochlorite, sodium hypochlorite, and chlorine. The reaction can be run in an organic solvent (e.g., a lower alkanol such as methanol) or in a two phase solvent system (e.g., water/methylene chloride) in the presence of a base such as sodium borate decahydrate. The reaction is preferably run at a reduced temperature.
Reaction of an intermediate of formula IXL with an alkoxylating agent, e.g., an alkali metal alkoxide yields a product of formula I wherein R.sub.2 is alkoxy, in combination with its enantiomer. The reaction can be run in an organic solvent, e.g., a polar organic solvent such as dimethylformamide, at a reduced temperature.
An alternative synthesis for preparing the compounds of formula I wherein R.sub.2 is alkoxy comprises first alkoxylating an intermediate of formula VI wherein R.sub.1 NH is a carbamate (e.g., R.sub.1 is benzyloxycarbonyl) and then introducing a sulfo group in the 1-position of the resulting compound. Chlorination of a compound of formula VI using the procedure described above (for chlorination of a non-alkoxylated compound of formula I to yield a compound of formula IXL) yields an intermediate having the formula ##STR77## Using the alkoxylation procedure described above (for converting a compound of formula IXL product of formula I), and subsequently adding a reducing agent such as trimethylphosphite, the compound of formula XL can be converted to an intermediate having the formula ##STR78## in combination with its enantiomer. A sulfo group can be introduced in the 1-position of a compound of formula XLI using either of the techniques described above for introducing a sulfo group in the 1-position of 3-benzyloxycarbonylamino-2-azetidinone (i.e., reaction with a complex of either pyridine, dimethylformamide or 2,6-lutidine and sulfur trioxide, or silylation followed by a silyl interchange reaction).
Still another synthesis for preparing the products of formula I wherein R.sub.2 is alkoxy comprises the initial preparation of a key intermediate having the formula ##STR79## or an intermediate of formula XLII in combination with its enantiomer.
Such an intermediate can be obtained by reduction of a salt of 3-alkoxy-3-(benzyloxycarbonylamino)-2-oxo-1-azetidinesulfonic acid using catalytic (e.g., palladium on charcoal) hydrogenation. Acylation with the appropriate acid chloride yields the various products of formula I (wherein R.sub.2 is alkoxy) from an intermediate of formula XLII.
The above procedures yield those products of formula I wherein R.sub.2 is alkoxy as a racemic mixture. If desired the enantiomer having the R configuration can be isolated from the racemic mixture using conventional techniques such as fractional crystallization of a suitable salt with an optically active organic amine or by ion-paired chromatography utilizing an optically active cation.
Still another synthesis for preparing the products of formula I wherein R.sub.2 is alkoxy and R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are hydrogen comprises the preparation of a .beta.-lactam intermediate having the formula ##STR80## An intermediate of formula XLIII can be obtained by first desulfurizing the corresponding 6-acylamino-6-alkoxypenicillanic acid or 7-acylamino-7-alkoxycephalosporanic acid by reduction using Raney nickel. The reaction can be run in water under reflux conditions; the resulting compound has the structural formula ##STR81##
Replacement of the carboxyl group of the compound of formula XLIV with an acetate group followed by hydrolysis yields a 3-acylamino-3-alkoxy-2-azetidinone of formula XLIV. Treatment of a compound of formula XLIV with cupric acetate and lead tetraacetate in an organic solvent (e.g., acetonitrile) replaces the carboxyl group with an acetate group. Hydrolysis of the resulting compound can be accomplished using potassium carbonate in the presence of sodium borohydride.
Introduction of a sulfo group in the 1-position of a compound of formula XLIII can be accomplished by reacting the intermediate with a complex of dimethylformamide and sulfur trioxide.
The above-described synthetic procedures for the production of the compounds of this invention have been illustrated with specific reference to the preparation of the products of formula I. As will be recognized by the practitioner of this invention, the processes have broader applicability and can be used to prepare other compounds falling within the scope of this invention; i.e., .beta.-lactams having a sulfonic acid salt substituent (--SO.sub.3.sup..crclbar. M.sup..sym.) in the 1-position of the .beta.-lactam nucleus, an amino (--NH.sub.2) or acylamino substituent in the 3-position of the .beta.-lactam nucleus, and various substituents in the 4-position of the .beta.-lactam nucleus. Utilizing the above described procedures, and starting materials prepared according to literature procedures, .beta.-lactam antibiotics can be prepared having the formula ##STR82## In formula XLV, one of X.sub.1 and X.sub.2 is hydrogen and the other is: halogen; carboxyl; --CH.sub.2 X.sub.3 wherein X.sub.3 is azido, amino(--NH.sub.2), hydroxy, alkylsulfonyloxy, (phenyl or substituted phenyl)sulfonyloxy, phenyl, substituted phenyl, halogen, benzylthio, (substituted phenyl)methylthio, triphenylthio, cyano or mercapto; --O--X.sub.5 wherein X.sub.5 is alkyl, phenyl, substituted phenyl, alkanoyl, or ##STR83##
The preferred products of this invention are those having the formula ##STR84## wherein R.sub.3 ' and R.sub.4 ' are each hydrogen or one of R.sub.3 ' and R.sub.4 ' is hydrogen and the other is alkyl. Particularly preferred products of this invention are those products of formula XLVI wherein one of R.sub.3 ' and R.sub.4 ' is hydrogen and the other is methyl or ethyl.
Biological Production of the Antibiotic EM5117
Salts of (R)-3-(acetylamino)-3-methoxy-2-oxo-1-azetidinesulfonic acid (formula I, R.sub.1 is acetyl and R.sub.2 is methoxy; referred to hereinafter as EM5117) can also be prepared by cultivation of a strain of the microorganism Chromobacterium violaceum SC 11,378, which has been deposited in the American Type Culture Collection as A.T.C.C. No. 31532.
The Microorganism
The microorganism used for the production of EM5117 is a strain of Chromobacterium violaceum SC 11,378. A subculture of the microorganism can be obtained from the permanent collection of the American Type Culture Collection, Rockville, Md. Its accession number in the repository is A.T.C.C. No. 31532. In addition to the specific microorganism described and characterized herein, it should be understood that mutants of the microorganism (e.g., mutants produced through the use of x-rays, ultraviolet radiation or nitrogen mustards) can also be cultured to produce EM5117.
Chromobacterium violaceum SC 11,378, A.T.C.C. No. 31532 can be isolated from a moist soil sample containing the microorganism by first stamping the soil sample on a medium containing:
Soil Extract--400 ml
Distilled Water--600 ml
Yeast Extract--5.0 g
Glucose--10.0 g
Agar--17.5 g
The medium is adjusted to pH 6.0 and sterilized in an autoclave at 121.degree. C. for 20 minutes. After 24 to 72 hours incubation at 25.degree. C. colonies of the Chromobacterium violaceum SC 11,378 are isolated from the plated soil. These isolated colonies are then grown on a medium containing:
Yeast Extract--1 g
Beef Extract--1 g
NZ amine A--2 g
Glucose--10 g
Agar--15 g
Distilled water to 1 liter
The medium is adjusted to pH 7.3 and autoclaved at 121.degree. C. for 30 minutes.
Chromobacterium violaceum SC 11,378 is a gram negative rod often showing barring, bipolar staining and lipid inclusions. It is motile by a single polar flagellum with occasional lateral flagella which are smaller in size.
On nutrient agar Chromobacterium violaceum SC 11,378 produces violet colonies. The pigment is enhanced on media rich in tryptophane and yeast extract. In nutrient broth it produces a violet ring on the wall of the tube but no confluent pellicle. The violet pigment is soluble in ethanol but insoluble in water and chloroform.
Chromobacterium violaceum SC 11,378 is mesophilic, growing over a range of 15.degree.-37.degree. C.; no growth occurs at 4.degree. C. or above 37.degree. C. Casein is hydrolyzed strongly by the microorganism, which is oxidase positive. In the presence of Chromobacterium violaceum SC 11,378 glucose, fructose and trehalose are fermented (method of Hugh & Leifson, 1953). L-Arabinose is not utilized by the microorganism either fermentatively or oxidatively. Hydrogen cyanide is produced by the microorganism and aesculin hydrolysis is negative.
The above described key characteristics provide the basis for the identification of the microorganism as Chromobacterium violaceum as distinguished from Chromobacterium lividum, the only other species of the genus Chromobacterium recognized in the 8th edition of Bergey's Manual of Determinative Bacteriology.
Additional strains of Chromobacterium violaceum can also be cultured to produce EM5117.
The Antibiotic
To obtain the antibiotic EM5117, Chromobacterium violaceum SC 11,378 A.T.C.C. No. 31532 is grown at, or about, 25.degree. C. under submerged aerobic conditions on an aqueous nutrient medium containing an assimilable carbohydrate and nitrogen source. The fermentation is carried out until substantial antibiotic activity is imparted to the medium, usually about 18 to 24 hours, preferably about 20 hours.
Using the following procedure, EM5117 can be separated from the fermentation medium and purified. After the fermentation has been completed the broth can be centrifuged to remove the mycelium or, alternatively, filtration can be used to remove the mycelium from the broth. After removing the mycelium from the broth EM5117 can be extracted from the broth. Preferably the broth is extracted at pH 5 by ion-pair extraction with cetyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride in methylene chloride and back-extracted into aqueous sodium iodide (adjusted to pH 5 with acetic acid). After concentration of the sodium iodide extract in vacuo, an aqueous solution of the residue can be washed with butanol. Concentration of the resulting aqueous solution to dryness yields a residue which is dissolved, to the extent possible, in methanol. Centrifugation can be used to separate insolubles which are washed with methanol and then discarded.
Purification of the antibiotic can be accomplished by dissolving the methanol concentrate in methanol/water (1:1) and applying it to a chromatography column, e.g., one comprising Sephadex G-10 in the same solvent mixture. After elution with the same mixture active fractions are combined and concentrated to dryness. The residue is mixed with methanol and insoluble material is filtered out and discarded.
Further purification is achieved by applying the methanol soluble material to a column of DEAE cellulose. The column can be eluted with a linear gradient prepared from pH 5 sodium 0.0.M phosphate buffer and pH 5 sodium 0.1M phosphate buffer. Active fractions are combined, concentrated and methanol insoluble materials are removed and discarded.
Still further purification of EM5117 is accomplished by dissolving this material in water and placing the solution on a column of Sephadex LH-20, and eluting the column with water. Active fractions are combined and concentrated. Further purification of EM5117 is then accomplished by dissolving the material in water, placing the solution on a column of Diaion HP-20AG and eluting with water. Active fractions are combined and concentrated. The concentrate is dissolved in water and passed through a column of Dowex 50W-X2, potassium form, washing with water. The effluent can be concentrated to yield a crystalline material which is relatively pure potassium salt of EM5117.
The above described isolation and purification process yields the potassium salt of EM5117. Other salts can be prepared corresponding to the form of the ion exchange resin utilized in the final purification step.
Biological Production of the Antibiotic EM5210
Salts of (R)-3-[[N-(D-.gamma.-glutamyl)-D-alanyl]amino]-3-methoxy-2-oxo-1-azetidinesulfonic acid (formula I, R.sub.1 is D-.gamma.-glutamyl-D-alanyl and R.sub.2 is methoxy; referred to hereinafter as EM5210) can also be prepared by cultivation of various acetic acid bacteria.
The Microorganism
The microorganism Gluconobacter species SC11,435 can be used for the production of EM5210. A subculture of the microorganism can be obtained from the permanent collection of the American Type Culture Collection, Rockville, Md. Its accession number in the repository is A.T.C.C. No. 31581. In addition to the specific microorganism described and characterized herein, it should be understood that mutants of the microorganism (e.g., mutants produced through the use of x-rays, ultraviolet radiation or nitrogen mustards) can also be cultured to produce EM5210.
Gluconobacter species SC11,435, A.T.C.C. No. 31581 can be isolated from ground moss containing the microorganism by first incubating the ground moss in a 10% aqueous pectin solution (pH 2.5) for 7 days at 25.degree. C. The organism can then be isolated by plating on a medium containing:
*Extract of Spartina patens Grass--400 ml
Distilled Water--600 ml
Yeast Extract--5 g
Glucose--10 g
Crude Flake Agar--17.5 g
*Extract of Spartina patens grass is prepared by adding 500 g of chopped, dried grass to 3 liters of tap water, brought to a boil and simmered for 30 minutes.
The medium is adjusted to pH 6.0 and sterilized in an autoclave at 121.degree. C. for 20 minutes. After about 18 hours incubation at 25.degree. C., colonies of the Gluconobacter species SC11,435 are isolated from the plated pectin enrichment solution. These isolated colonies are then grown on a medium containing:
Yeast Extract--1 g
Beef Extract--1 g
NZ amine A--2 g
Glucose--10 g
Agar--15 g
Distilled Water--to 1 liter
The medium is adjusted to pH 7.3 and autoclaved at 121.degree. C. for 30 minutes.
Gluconobacter species SC11,435 is a pleiomorphic gram negative rod motile by means of one to three polar Flagella. It is obligately aerobic, catalase positive and oxidative. It is differentiated from Pseudomonas in that it is cytochrome oxidase negative and tolerant of extremely acid conditions. These characteristics indicate that the microorganism is more closely related to the acetic acid bacteria than to true Pseudomonads.
On BBL Trypticase soy agar Gluconobacter species SC11,435 grows as a mixture of rough and smooth colony types. The rough type is associated with a faint yellow soluble pigment whereas the smooth type is mucoid and pigmentless. Dissociation between the two types is influenced by media, temperature and storage conditions. EM5210 activity tends to decrease in cultures where the rough component is dominant.
On BBL Wart agar (pH 4.8) Gluconobacter species SC11,435 grows luxuriantly as heaped up mucoid slimy colonies. Similar growth is obtained on malt-yeast extract agar (1% each) adjusted to pH 4.5.
On medium containing 1% yeast extract, 10% glucose, 3% calcium carbonate and 2.5% agar, sufficient acid is produced from the glucose to produce a zone of clearing of the calcium carbonate around the growth. This is a characteristic feature of Acetobacter and Gluconobacter.
In the presence of Gluconobacter species SC11,435: (i) a brown soluble pigment is produced on yeast extract-glycerol and yeast extract-calcium lactate agar plates, (ii) acid is produced on glucose, fructose, galactose, mannose, xylose, mannitol and arabinose, but no growth or acid production occurs on rhamnose, lactose, sucrose or maltose, when these sugars are incorporated into Hugh and Leifson's medium.
The biological production of EM5210 is not limited to Gluconobacter species SC11,435, but is broadly distributed throughout the acetic bacteria. The following cultures can each be used for the production of EM5210:
Acetobacter pasteurianus subsp. pasteurianum A.T.C.C. 6033
Acetobacter aceti subsp. aceti A.T.C.C. 15973
Gluconobacter oxydans subsp. oxydans A.T.C.C. 19357
Gluconobacter oxydans subsp. suboxydans A.T.C.C. 23773
Gluconobacter oxydans subsp. oxydans A.T.C.C. 15178
Acetobacter aceti subsp. liquefaciens A.T.C.C. 23751
Acetobacter peroxydans A.T.C.C. 12874
Gluconobacter oxydans subsp. suboxydans A.T.C.C. 19441
Acetobacter sp. A.T.C.C. 21780
Gluconobacter oxydans subsp. industralis A.T.C.C. 11894
The Antibiotic
To obtain the antibiotic EM5210, Gluconobacter species SC11,435 A.T.C.C. No. 31581 or one of the microorganisms listed above, can be grown at, or about, 25.degree. C. under submerged aerobic conditions on an aqueous nutrient medium containing an assimilable carbon and nitrogen source. The fermentation is carried out until substantial antibiotic activity is imparted to the medium, usually about 16 to 24 hours, preferably about 20 hours.
Using the following procedure EM5210 can be separated from the fermentation medium and purified. After the fermentation has been completed the broth is centrifuged to remove the bacteria and the antibiotic is removed from the broth supernate at pH 3.7 by absorption onto an anion exchange resin e.g., Dowex 1-X2. Antibiotic is eluted from the resin with sodium chloride at about pH 4, and the eluate is concentrated and passed through a charcoal column. EM5210 is then eluted from the charcoal with methanol:water, 1:1. The active fractions are collected and dried, and then placed on an anion exchange column, e.g., Dowex 1-X2, and eluted with a gradient of sodium chloride buffered at pH 4. Active fractions are concentrated and desalted on a macroreticular styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer resin (Dianion HP20AG) column. Active fractions eluted with water are concentrated and freeze dried and this material represents the sodium salt of EM5210.
The above described purification procedure will yield the sodium salt of EM5210. Other salts can be obtained by changing the salt used to elute EM5210 in the ion-exchange chromotography described above, e.g., using potassium chloride to give the potassium salt.
The following examples are specific embodiments of this invention.

EXAMPLE 1
(S)-N-(2-Oxo-1-sulfo-3-azetidinyl)-2-phenylacetamide, potassium salt
Method I
(A) 1-[(1R)-carboxy-2-methyl(propyl)]-2-oxo-(3S)-[phenyl[acetyl(amino)]]azetidine
Raney nickel is washed with water by decantation for several hours until the pH of the water (5-6 times volume of that of the Raney nickel) is 7.6.
To a solution of 9.0 g of penicillin G (Na.sup.+) in 500 ml of water is added 54 g (90 ml) of Raney nickel. The flask, fitted with a reflux condenser, is immersed in a bath at 155.degree. C. When refluxing begins, it is continued for 15 minutes. The flask is immediately cooled in an ice-water bath, and the Raney nickel is removed by filtration through Celite. The pH is adjusted to 3 using dilute HCl, and the aqueous solution is concentrated to ca. 150 ml and cooled. The oily layer crystallizes upon scratching. After washing with water and drying in vacuo for 3 hours at 50.degree. C. there is 3.83 g of the title compound.
(B) 1-[Acetyloxy-2-methyl(propyl)]-2-oxo-(3S)-[phenyl[acetyl(amino)]]azetidine
Nitrogen is bubbled for 15 minutes through a stirred suspension of 608 mg (2 mmol) of the above compound in 20 ml of dry acetonitrile. A water bath at 40.degree.-45.degree. C. is used for several minutes to dissolve all of the acid. The water bath is removed, and powdered cupric acetate monohydrate (182 mg, 1 mmol) is added, followed after 1 minute of stirring, by 886 mg (2 mmol) of lead tetracetate. The mixture is stirred at room temperature for 20 minutes. The acetonitrile solution is decanted from the precipitate, and the solids are washed with ethyl acetate. The combined acetonitrile-ethyl acetate solution is evaporated to a residue, which is taken up in ethyl acetate-water. The ethyl acetate layer is washed sequentially with water (3 times), aqueous sodium bicarbonate (pH 7), and water. The ethyl acetate layer is dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated to a residue (515 mg), which is used without further purification in the next reaction.
(C) 2-Oxo-(3S)-[phenyl[acetyl(amino)]]azetidine
To a solution of 911 mg (2.86 mmol) of the above compound in 21 ml of methanol is added 3.5 ml of water followed by 383 mg (2.86 mmol) of potassium carbonate. The mixture is stirred under nitrogen for 1 minute, and then 160 mg (4.30 mmol) of sodium borohydride is added. The reaction is stirred at room temperature for 20 minutes. The methanol is removed in vacuo, and the residue is taken up in ethyl acetate and a small amount of water. This is adjusted to pH 2.5. The ethyl acetate layer is washed at pH 7.0 with aqueous sodium bicarbonate and then a small volume of water and finally dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated to give the crude product (493 mg). Addition of a small amount of ethyl acetate gives 250 mg (43% yield) of the desired crystalline product. Further quantities of product can be obtained by crystallization or chromatography.
(D) (S)-N-(2-Oxo-1-sulfo-3-azetidinyl)-2-phenylacetamide, potassium salt
Pyridine.SO.sub.3 complex (215 mg, 1.35 mmol) is added to a stirred solution of 251 mg (1.23 mmol) of the above product in 2 ml of dry dimethylformamide and 2 ml of dry methylene chloride under nitrogen at room temperature.

The column is eluted at 5 ml/minute with a linear gradient prepared from 4 liters of pH 5 sodium 0.01M phosphate buffer and 4 liters of pH 5 sodium 0.1M phosphate buffer, collecting 20 ml fractions. Active fractions (192-222) are combined and concentrated in vacuo, and methanol-insoluble material is removed, washing well with methanol. Removal of solvent leaves 576 mg of material.
The 576 mg of residue is dissolved in 4 ml of water and the pH adjusted to 5 with about 1 ml of 0.1N sodium hydroxide. The solution is chromatographed on a column of alkylated cross-linked dextran gel (Sephadex LH-20) in water, eluting at 1 ml/minute and collecting 10 ml fractions. Active fractions (38-44) are combined and concentrated, giving 459 mg of residue.
Three hundred and forty eight (348) mg of the above residue is dissolved in water and the solution placed on a column of macroreticular styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer resin (Diaion HP20AG); the column has been first prepared by washing with methanolic potassium hydroxide, methanol, methanolic hydrogen chloride, methanol and water, and then packed in water. The column is eluted with water at 1 ml/minute, collecting 10 ml fractions. Active fractions (36-43) are combined and concentrated giving 186.4 mg of material. Chromatography (in the same way) of another 100 mg of the 459 mg of residue from the previous step yields 51.5 mg of material. At this stage the 186.4 mg of material and 51.5 mg of material are nearly pure EM5117 as shown by thin-layer chromatography and nuclear magnetic resonance spectra.
The 186.4 mg portion of EM5117 from above is dissolved in water and passed through a column of ion-exchange resin (Dowex 50W-X2, 100-200 mesh, potassium form), washing with two bed volumes of water. Concentration of the effluent yields 189.0 mg of crystalline solid. Recrystallization of this material is accomplished by dissolving it in 0.38 ml of water and adding 3.42 ml of methanol. The resulting mixture is cooled on ice and filtered, yielding 145 mg of crystals. Two further recrystallizations in this manner from water-methanol, 1:9, yield 95.9 mg of EM5117, potassium salt.

The pH is adjusted to 7.3 before sterilization at 121.degree. C. for 30 minutes.
A loopful of surface growth from the agar slant (medium A) of Gluconobacter species SC11,435 is used to inoculate each of three 500 ml Erlenmeyer flasks each containing 100 ml of the following sterilized medium (B):
______________________________________ Grams______________________________________ Yeast Extract 4 Malt Extract 10 Dextrose 4 Distilled H.sub.2 O 1 liter______________________________________
The pH is adjusted to 7.3 before sterilization at 121.degree. C. for 15 minutes.
After inoculation, the flasks are incubated at 25.degree. C. on a rotary shaker (300 rpm; 2 inch stroke) for approximately 24 hours. After the appropriate incubation, as described above, 1% (vol/vol) transfers are made from the grown culture flasks to one hundred 500 ml Erlenmeyer flasks each containing 100 ml of the following sterilized medium (C):
______________________________________ Grams______________________________________ Yeast Extract 5 Glucose 10 Distilled H.sub.2 O 1 liter______________________________________
The medium is sterilized at 121.degree. C. for 15 minutes.
After inoculation, the flasks are incubated at 25.degree. C. on a rotary shaker (300 rpm; 2 inch stroke) for 18 hours. At this time the contents of the flasks are pooled and the broth is centrifuged yielding approximately 9 liters of supernatant broth.
Isolation and Purification (small scale)
Activity from the broth supernatant (10 liters) is absorbed on a 500 g column of strongly basic anion exchange resin with quaternary ammonium groups attached to a styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer lattice (Dowex AG1-X2(Cl.sup.-)), washed with water and eluted with 5% sodium chloride in aqueous 0.01M NaH.sub.2 PO.sub.4. The eluate is concentrated in vacuo.
The residue is adsorbed on 250 g of charcoal which is washed with water. EM5210 is eluted with methanol-water (1:1). The active fractions are combined and concentrated in vacuo yielding crude EM5210.
The crude EM5210 is chromatographed on a 280 ml column of strong base anion exchange resin (Bio.Rad AG1-X2(Cl.sup.-)) using a linear gradient prepared from 1 liter of water and 1 liter of 2M pyridinium acetate (pH 4.5). The active fractions are combined and concentrated in vacuo.
The partially purified EM5210 is further purified by gel filtration of the residue on a 500 ml column of cross-linked dextran gel (Sephadex G-10) eluting with water. The active fractions are combined and concentrated yielding 26 mg of EM5120. The potassium salt of EM5210 is prepared by passing EM5210 through a column of cation-exchange resin (Dowex 50-X2) in the potassium form.
Isolation and Purification (large scale)
The broth filtrate of a 250 liter fermentation (pH 3.7) of Gluconobacter species SC11,435 is absorbed on 10.8 kg of strong base anion exchange resin (Dowex 1-X8(Cl.sup.-)). The resin is washed with water and eluted with 5% sodium chloride in 0.01M sodium dihydrogen phosphate. The active fractions are combined and concentrated to a small volume. The precipitated salt is removed and the filtrate is desalted by passing it through a column of charcoal (1.1 kg of 20-40 mesh Darco) in water. The column is washed with water and the EM5210 is eluted with methanol-water, 1:1. Active fractions are combined and concentrated. The residue (16 g) is dissolved in water and chromatographed on a column (600 ml) of strong base ion exchange resin (Bio.Rad AG 1-X2(Cl.sup.-), 200-400 mesh), eluting with a linear gradient prepared from 1 liter of water and 1 liter of 10% sodium chloride in 0.01M sodium dihydrogen phosphate. Active fractions are combined, concentrated in vacuo to a small volume, and precipitated salts are removed by filtration. The filtrate is applied to a column of macroreticular styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer resin (Diaion HP 20 AG). The column is eluted with water. The active fractions are combined, concentrated to a small volume and freeze-dried, yielding 120 mg of the sodium salt of EM5210.
To transform the sodium salt to the lithium salt an ion-exchange resin (Dowex 50 W-X2, lithium form) column is used. This sodium salt (100 mg) is dissolved in 0.5 ml of water, applied to the column and eluted with water. The active fractions are combined and directly freeze-dried, yielding 95 mg of the lithium salt of EM5210.
The free acid (inner salt) of EM5210 is prepared by passing a base salt of EM5210 through a column of weak acid ion-exchange resin in the H.sup.+ form. For example, about 2.5 mg of the lithium salt can be applied to a column of Bio.Rad Bio.Rex 70 (H.sup.+) and eluted with water to give 1.45 mg of the free acid (inner salt).
Chemical properties of EM5210
(1) Ninhydrin positive.
(2) Acid hydrolysis (6N HCl at 115.degree. C. for 16 hours) gives two major ninhydrin positive spots by paper chromatography (Whatman No. 1, butanol-acetic acid-water (5:1:4)), and one weak ninhydrin positive spot that quenches UV-excited fluorescence. The two major ninhydrin positive spots are D-glutamic acid and D-alanine.

Biological Activity
The following methodology is used to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (hereinafter referred to as MIC) of the .beta.-lactams of this invention.
The test organisms are grown in approximately 15-20 ml of Antibiotic Assay broth (Difco) by inoculating (in tubes) the broth with a loopful of the organism from a BHI (Difco) agar slant. The inoculated tubes are incubated at 37.degree. C. for 18 to 20 hours. These cultures are assumed to contain 10.sup.9 colony forming units (hereinafter CFU) per milliliter. The cultures are diluted 1:100 to give a final inoculum level of 10.sup.7 CFU; dilutions are made with K-10 broth*.
The compounds are dissolved in the appropriate diluent at a concentration of 1000 .mu.g/ml. Two-fold dilutions are made in K-10 broth resulting in a range from 1000 .mu.g/ml to 0.5 .mu.g/ml. 1.5 ml of each dilution is placed into individual square petri dishes to which 13.5 ml of K-10 agar** is added. The final drug concentration in the agar ranges from 100 .mu.g/ml to 0.05 .mu.g/ml. Organism growth control plates containing agar only are prepared and inoculated before and after the test plates. The organisms are applied to the agar surface of each plate with the Denley Multipoint Inoculator (which delivers approximately 0.001 ml of each organism) resulting in a final inoculum level of 10.sup.4 CFU on the agar surface.
*K-10 broth is a yeast beef broth containing:
Beef extract--1.5 g
Yeast extract--3.0 g
Peptone--6.0 g
Dextrose--1.0 g
Distilled water q.s. 1 liter
**K-10 agar
Beef extract--1.5 g
Yeast extract--3.0 g
Peptone--6.0 g
Dextrose--1.0 g
Agar--15.0 g
Distilled water q.s. 1 liter
The plates are incubated at 37.degree. C. for 18 hours and the MIC's are determined. The MIC is the lowest concentration of compound inhibiting growth of the organism.
The tables that follow are tabulated results obtained when the .beta.-lactams of this invention are tested against various organisms. The number following each organism refers to the number of the organism in the collection of E. R. Squibb & Sons, Inc., Princeton, N.J.
