DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The compounds of the present invention are characterized in that each of them is a cyclic amine compound having a spiro ring and also in that the "7-equivalent position" of a quinolone derivative has been attached thereto. The term "7-equivalent position" of a quinolone derivative means, for example, the 7-position of optionally substituted 4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid compounds and 4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid compounds, the 10-position of 7-oxopyrido[1,2,3-de][1.4]benzoxazine-6-carboxylic acid or the 8-position of benzo[ij]quinolizine-2-carboxylic acid.
The spiro ring should be in the range of 3-membered through 6-membered rings, of which 3-membered and 4-membered rings are preferred.
The ring size of the cyclic amine exclusive of the spiro ring should be in the range of 4- to 8-membered rings, of which 5-membered and 6-membered rings are preferred. This cyclic amine is attached through its nitrogen atom to the "7-equivalent position" of a quinolone derivative.
This cyclic amine may further contain one or more hetero-atoms, such as oxygen, sulfur and nitrogen, of which nitrogen is preferred. This nitrogen atom may be substituted, for example, by an alkyl group of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, a hydroxyalkyl group of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, a haloalkyl group of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, a formyl group and an alkylcarbonyl group of 2 to 7 carbon atoms.
The followings are some of the examples of cyclic amine structures bearing spirocyclic ring; 5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane structure, 6-azaspiro[3,4]octane structure, 2-azaspiro[4.4]nonane structure, 2-azaspiro[4.5]decane structure, 5-azaspiro[2,5]octane structure, 6-azaspiro[2.5]octane structure, 6-azaspiro[3.5]nonane structure, 7-azaspiro[3.5]nonane structure, 7-azaspiro[4.5]decane structure, 8-azaspiro[4.5]decane structure, 2-azaspiro[5.5]undecane structure, 3-azaspiro[5.5]undecane structure, 4,7-diazaspiro[2.5]octane structure, 5,8-diazaspiro[3.5]nonane structure, 6,9-diazaspiro[4.5]decane structure, 7,10-diazaspiro[5.5]undecane structure, 7-aza-4-oxaspiro[2.5]octane structure, 8-aza-5-oxaspiro[3.5]nonane structure, 9-aza-6-oxaspiro[4.5]decane structure, 7-aza-4-thiaspiro[2.5]octane structure, 8-aza-5-thiaspiro[3.5]nonane structure, 9-aza-6-thiaspiro[4.5 ]decane structure, 7-aza-4-thiaspiro[2.5]octane-4-oxide structure, 8-aza-5-thiaspiro[3.5]nonane-5-oxide structure, and 9-aza-6-thiaspiro[4.5]decane-6-oxide structure.
When an additional hetero-atom such as oxygen, sulfur or nitrogen exists in the ring of said cyclic amine or particularly when such hetero-atom is not existent, there may exist polar substituent groups on the amine ring, such as, for example, amino, monoalkylamino groups of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, dialkylamino groups containing 1 to 6 carbon atoms per alkyl, aminoalkyl groups of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, the amino moiety of which is or is not substituted by alkyl of 1 to 6 carbon atoms or hydroxyalkyl of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, hydroxy, hydroxyalkyl groups of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, hydroxyimino, and alkoxy groups of 1 to 6 carbon atoms. Preferred are the amino groups.
These substituents on the spiro-substituted cyclic amine are or are not protected by appropriate protective groups. Such protective groups can be selected from among those which are commonly employed. For example, suitable protective groups include alkoxycarbonyl groups such as tert-butoxycarbonyl, and 2,2,2-trichloroethoxycarbonyl, aralkyloxycarbonyl groups such as benzyloxycarbonyl, p-methoxybenzyloxycarbonyl, and p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl, acyl groups such as acetyl, methoxyacetyl, trifluoroacetyl, chloroacetyl, pivaloyl, formyl, and benzoyl, alkyl or aralkyl groups such as tert-butyl, benzyl, p-nitrobenzyl, p-methoxybenzyl, and triphenylmethyl, ether groups such as methoxymethyl, tert-butoxymethyl, tetrahydropyranyl, and 2,2,2-trichloroethoxymethyl, and silyl groups such as trimethylsilyl, isopropyldimethylsilyl, tert-butyldimethylsilyl, tribenzylsilyl, and tert-butyldiphenylsilyl.
When a substituent other than the spiro ring exists on the spiro-substituted cyclic amine and the carbon atom to which the substituent is attached is an asymmetric carbon atom, stereoisomers of the cyclic amine exist. If such a cyclic amine as a mixture of stereoisomers is used as a substituent for the "7-equivalent position", the resulting spiro compound I may be a mixture of diastereomers if the second asymmetric carbon atom exists in the spiro compound. A mixture of diastereomers is a mixture of compounds dissimilar in physical constants and cannot be utilized as a drug. In such cases, the cyclic amine should be fractionated into isomers prior to the reaction.
When the product spiro compound I is a racemic compound, the racemate may be used as it is. However, there are cases in which an optically active form is biologically more useful than the racemate. In such cases, the racemate should be subjected to optical resolution.
For example, as for the antimicrobial activity of the two enantiomers having a 7-amino-5-azaspiro[2,4]heptane structure, one of them has more potent antimicrobial activity than the other. It has been revealed that the derivative of the 7-(S)-amino-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane is the more potent enantiomer. This fact was confirmed by X-ray crystallographycal analysis of the one of the isomers of 7-(7-tert-butoxycarbonylamino-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane-5-yl)-8-chloro-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid which gives the more potent isomer of 7-(7-amino-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane-5-yl)-8-chloro-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid.
The cyclic amine substituted by a spiro ring can be synthesized in the following manner.
Taking 7-amino-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane as an example, ethyl acetoacetate is first reacted with 1,2-dibromoethane in the presence of a base to give ethyl 1-acetyl-1-cyclopropanecarboxylate. Then, using bromine, the acetyl group of this compound is brominated to give ethyl 1-bromoacetyl-1-cyclopropanecarboxylate. This bromoacetyl compound is then cyclized with benzylamine to give 5-benzyl-4,7-dioxo-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane. When this compound is reacted with hydroxylamine hydrochloride, the ketone in the 7-position is converted to an oxime to give 5-benzyl-7-(hydroxyimino)-4-oxo-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane. This oxime is reduced with lithium aluminum hydride to give a spiro ring-containing aminopyrrolidine compound, viz., 7-amino-5-benzyl-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane. When the benzyl group of this compound is eliminated by an ordinary procedure, such as catalytic hydrogenolysis, 7-amino-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane, which is a racemic compound, is obtained. When this cleavage of the benzyl group after the amino group is protected by the reaction of 2-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)-2-phenylacetonitrile (hereinafter referred to briefly as BOC-ON), 7-tert-butoxycarbonylamino-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane is obtained.
Optical isomers of 7-amino-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane can be obtained in the following manner.
First, 7-amino-5-benzyl-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane is reacted with (R)-N-p-toluenesulfonylpropyl chloride to give 7-[(R)-N-p-toluenesulfonylpropyl]amino-5-benzyl-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane. This compound is then reacted with benzyl chlorocarbonate to give 7-[(R)-N-p-toluenesulfonylpropyl]amino-5-benzyloxycarbonyl-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane. This product can be fractionated into optically active compounds by high performance liquid chromatography (hereinafter referred to briefly as HPLC). After resolution, each compound is treated with 2N sodium hydroxide, whereupon the proline moiety and the benzyloxycarbonyl group are cleaved off to give the corresponding optically active 7-amino-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane.
It has also been found that when the cyclization of ethyl 1-bromoacetyl-1-cyclopropanecarboxylate is carried out using an optically active 1-phenethylamine in lieu of benzylamine, the subsequent optical resolution of the racemic compound is facilitated.
The following procedure is an alternative synthesis starting from 1-acetyl-1-cyclopropanecarboxylic ester. At first, the ester of 1-acetyl-1-cyclopropanecarboxylic ester is cleaved by acidic or basic hydrolysis or by catalytic hydrogenation. This free acid is reacted with R-(+)-1-phenylethylamine to give N-[1-(R)-phenylethyl]-1-acetyl-1-cyclopropylcarboxamide, an amide derivative. Then, the carbonyl moiety of the acetyl group thereof is converted to a ketal group and, thus, N-[1-(R)-phenylethyl]-1-(1,1-ethylenedioxyethyl)-1-cyclopropanecarboxamide is obtained. The methyl group adjacent to the ketal group thereof is then halogenated, for example, N-[1-(R)-phenylethyl]-1-(1,1-ethylenedioxyethyl)-1-cyclopropanecarboxamide is converted to N-[1-(R)-phenylethyl]-1-(2-bromo-1,1-ethylenedioxyethyl)-1-cyclopropanecarboxamide. This halomethyl compound is cyclized in the presence of base to 4,7-dioxo-5-[1-(R)-phenylethyl]-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane-7-ethyleneacetal which is a pyrrolidone derivative bearing a spiro cyclic ring and ketal function. The ketal function thereof can be cleaved by a known hydrolysis procedure to give 4,7-dioxo-5-[1-(R)-phenylethyl]-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane. This compound can lead to the spirocyclic amine by the previously mentioned procedure.
The synthesis of 4,7-diazaspiro[2.5]octane is discussed below. Cyclopropane-1,1-diamide is first reacted with bromine and a base to give cyclopropane-1,1-dibromoamide which, in turn, is treated with an alkoxide to give a spiro hydantoin, namely, 4,6-diazaspiro[2.4]heptane-5,7-dione. This compound is then treated with alkali to give 1-aminocyclopropanecarboxylic acid. The amino group of this compound is protected with a tert-butoxycarbonyl group to give 1-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)-1-cyclopropanecarboxylic acid, which is then condensed with glycine ethyl ester in the presence of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide to give ethyl (1-tert-butoxycarbonylamino-1-cyclopropylcarbonylamino)acetate. After removal of the amino-protecting group, the above compound is cyclized under heating to give a spiro ring-containing diketopiperazine compound, namely, 4,7-diazaspiro[2.5]octane-5,8-dione. This compound is reduced with lithium aluminum hydride to give a spiro ring-containing piperazide compound, namely, 4,7-diazaspiro[2.5]octane.
The synthesis of the cyclic amine derivative bearing a spirocyclic ring can be achieved by the method exemplified as follows. Condensation of a cyclic alkyl ketone and malonic acid diester in the presence of titanium tetrachloride gives a cycloalkylidenemalonic acid diester. The reaction of this cycloalkylidenemalonic acid diester and nitromethane in the presence of base yields Michael adduct, e.g., (1-nitromethyl-1-cycloalkyl)malonic acid diester. The reductive cyclization of (1-nitromethyl-1-cycloalkyl)malonic acid diester gives pyrrolidonecarboxylic acid ester bearing a spirocyclic ring, e.g., if the spirocyclic ring is 4-membered ring, 7-oxo-6-azaspiro[3.4]octane-8-carboxylic acid ester is obtained. For this reductive cyclization, catalytic reduction is more convenient. However, other chemical reduction methods are also applicable. This pyrrolidonecarboxylic acid ester can be converted to the cyclic amine derivative bearing a spirocyclic ring and a tert-butoxycarbonylamino substituent by the Crutius reaction in tert-butanol of the free carboxylic acid which is obtained by the cleavage of the ester by a known method such as hydrolysis or hydrogenolysis. The reduction of the pyrrolidone bearing a spirocyclic ring and an amino substituent after the removal of the tert-butoxycarbonyl group gives a pyrrolidine derivative having a spirocyclic ring and an amino substituent. The reduction of pyrrolidonecarboxylic acid ester with metal hydrides such as lithium aluminum hydride gives a pyrrolidine derivative bearing a spirocyclic ring and a hydroxymethyl substituent.
Quinolone derivatives to be bound to such a spiro ring-containing cyclic amine include bicyclic compounds such as 1,4-dihydro-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid, and 1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid, and tricyclic compounds such as 2,3-dihydro-7-oxo-7H-pyrido[1,2,3-de][1.4]benzoxazine-6-carboxylic acid, 2,3-dihydro-7-oxo-7H-pyrido[1,2,3-de][1.4]benzothiazine-6-carboxylic acid, 6,7-dihydro-1,7-dioxo-1H,5H-benzo[ij]quinolizine-2-carboxylic acid, and 6,7-dihydrobenzo[ij]quinolizine-2-carboxylic acid, tetracyclic compound such as 9,1-epoxymethano-5-oxo-5H-thiazolo[3,2-a]quinoline-4-carboxylic acid. The partial structures are illustrated below. ##STR6##
Referring to 1,4-dihydro-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid and 1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid compounds, the substituent in the 1-position may, for example, be a lower alkyl group of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, such as ethyl, isopropyl and tert-butyl, a haloalkyl group of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, such as 2-fluoroethyl, a lower alkenyl group of 2 to 6 carbon atoms, such as vinyl and isopropenyl, a cycloalkyl group of 3 to 6 carbon atoms which is or is not substituted, such as cyclopropyl, cis-2-methylcyclopropyl and 2-gemdihalocyclopropyl, an aryl or heteroaryl group which is or is not substituted, such as 4-fluorophenyl, 2,4-difluorophenyl and 2-fluoro-4-pyridyl, an alkoxy group of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, such as methoxy and ethoxy, or an alkylamino group of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, such as methylamino and ethylamino. Among these substituent groups, ethyl, 2-fluoroethyl, vinyl, cyclopropyl, cis-2-methylcyclopropyl, 4-fluorophenyl, 2,4 -difluorophenyl, 2-fluoro-4-pyridyl, methoxy and methylamino are preferred.
The substituent in 2-position is preferably a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, such as methyl, ethyl and propyl.
The preferred substituent group in the 5-position is a hydrogen atom, an amino group, an unsubstituted mono-C.sub.1-6 alkylamino or di-C.sub.1-6 alkylamino group, such as methylamino, ethylamino, isopropylamino, dimethylamino and diethylamino, a hydroxyl group, a halo-C.sub.1-6 alkyl group, a C.sub.1-6 alkoxy group such as methoxy and ethoxy, or a halogen atom.
The 6-position is preferably substituted by a halogen atom, particularly fluorine or chlorine.

Regarding the quinolone structure, it may not only be a bicyclic structure but may be a tricyclic or tetracyclic structure formed between the 1-position and either the 8-position or the 2-position or between the 1-position and each of the 8- and 2-positions of the quinoline ring. The ring formed in such cases is preferably in the range of 4-membered to 7-membered rings and more desirably a 5- or 6-membered ring.
The ring so formed may include nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur atoms. Moreover, not only single bonds but also double bonds may be contained, and the ring may have aromaticity. Furthermore, such rings are or are not substituted by C.sub.1-6 alkyl or halo-C.sub.1-6 alkyl groups.
Regarding tricyclic quinolone derivatives, taking 2,3-dihydro-7-oxo-7H-pyrido[1,2,3-de][1.4]benzoxazine-6-carboxylic acid as an example, the 3-position may be substituted by an alkyl group of 1 to 6 carbon atoms which is preferably be in the S-configuration. The 9-position is preferably substituted by a halogen atom which is preferably fluorine or chlorine. The above status of substitution may equally apply to other tricyclic quinolone derivatives such as 2,3-dihydro-7-oxo-7H-pyrido[1,2,3-de][1.4]benzothiazine-6-carboxylic acid and 6,7-dihydro-1H,5H-benzo[ij]quinolizine-2-carboxylic acid as well. In the case of 3-alkyl-7-oxo-2,3-dihydro-7H-pyrido[3,2,1-ij]-1,3,4-benzoxadiazine-6-carboxylic acid, the 9-position is preferably substituted by a halogen atom which is preferably fluorine or chlorine.
Preferred quinolone derivatives which are to be attached to said spiro ring-containing cyclic amine are 1,4-dihydro-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid compounds.
The spiro ring-containing cyclic amine can be introduced into such a quinolone derivative by the processes described in European Patent (EP)-A-167,763, EP-A-195,841, EP-A-160,578 and EP-A-206,283.
The processes for production of the present compounds are described below by way of reaction schemes. ##STR7## wherein a, b, c, d, Z, A, R.sup.4, R.sup.5, R.sup.6, Y and X are as defined hereinbefore; X' means a halogen atom, preferably a fluorine atom. Thus, when the spiro ring-containing cyclic amine is reacted with a 7-haloquinolone derivative, the nitrogen atom of the pyrrolidine ring is bound to the 7-position of the quinolone ring to give the desired quinolone derivative.
In the starting material quinolone derivative, for example, 1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-7-halo-1,4-dihydro-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid, the halogen atom in the 7-position may be chlorine or fluorine. These starting compounds can be synthesized by the methods disclosed in EP-A-167,763 and EP-A-195,841. Other quinolone materials can also be synthesized by known processes.
For example, 7-chloro-6-fluoro-1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid, EP-A-27,752; 9,10-difluoro-3-methyl-7-oxo-2,3-dihydro-7H-pyrido[3,2,1-ij]-1,3,4-benzoxadiazine-6-carboxylic acid, Japan Kokai 88-132891; 9,1-epoxymethano-7,8-difluoro-5-oxo-5H-thiazolo[3,2-a]quinoline-4-carboxylic acid, Japan Kokai 89-117888; 7,8-difluoro-5-oxo-5H-thiazolo[3,2-a]quinoline-3-carboxylic acid, U.S. Pat. No. 4,550,104; 7-halogeno-6-fluoro-1-methyl-4-oxo-4H-[1,3]thiazeto[3,2-a]quinoline-3-carboxylic acid, Japan Kokai 88-107990; 9,10-difluoro-3-methyl-2,3-dihydro-7-oxo-7H-pyrido[1,2,3-de][1.4]benzoxazine-6-carboxylic acid, EP-A-47,005.
In the method described in EP-A-195,841, the intermediate compound 3-chloro-2,4,5-trifluorobenzoic acid is synthesized in 10 reaction steps. In contrast, the inventors of the present invention developed a process for synthesizing the above compound in one step starting from 3-amino-2,4,5-trifluorobenzoic acid and found that this process was applicable to other benzoic acid derivatives as well. ##STR8##
Furthermore, as a starting material to be reacted with the spiro ring-containing amine, it is possible to use a quinolone derivative whose carboxyl group in the 3-position (or 3-equivalent position) has been esterified by a substituted boron compound. This ester may, for example, be a compound having the following substituent group in the 3-position (or 3-equivalent position) of the quinolone nucleus, forming a chelate with the carbonyl group in the 4-position (or 4-equivalent position) of the quinolone ring. ##STR9## The above fluorine atom may be a different halogen atom or an acetoxy group.
This dihalogenated boron compound can be easily prepared from a free carboxylic acid derivative and an appropriate trihalogenated boron compound such as a boron trifluoride-ether complex.
Thus, the carboxylic acid derivative is suspended or dissolved in an ether, such as diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, tetrahydrofuran or dioxane, and an excess of boron trifluoride-diethyl ether complex is added. The mixture is stirred at room temperature. The reaction may be conducted at room temperature but, if necessary, under heating up to about 100.degree. C. The reaction is complete in 30 minutes to 24 hours. Since the reaction product generally precipitates out, the precipitate is collected, washed with an inert solvent such as ether and dried under reduced pressure (EP-A-206,283).
The derivatives in which the carboxyl moiety in the 3-position (or 3-equivalent position) has been esterified are useful as synthetic intermediates or prodrugs. For example, esters such as an alkyl ester, benzyl ester, alkoxyalkyl ester, phenylalkyl ester or phenyl ester are useful as synthetic intermediates.
The reaction for introduction of the spiro ring-containing cyclic amine is generally carried out in the presence of an acid acceptor. While the acid acceptor may be an organic base or an inorganic base, it is generally preferable to use an organic base.
Preferred organic bases include tertiary amines inclusive of trialkylamines such as triethylamine, tripropylamine, N,N-diisopropylethylamine and tributylamine, aniline compounds such as N,N-dimethylaniline and N,N-diethylaniline, and heterocyclic compounds such as N-methylmorpholine, pyridine and N,N-dimethylaminopyridine.
Examples of inorganic bases include hydroxides, carbonates and hydrogencarbonates of alkali metals such as lithium, sodium and potassium. To be specific, lithium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium hydrogencarbonate and potassium hydrogencarbonate can be mentioned.
It is also possible to use a stoichiometric excess of the starting material spiro ring-containing cyclic amino so that it may serve both as the reactant and the acid acceptor.
The reaction solvent may be any kind of solvent that is inert to the reaction. Suitable solvents include acetonitrile, amides such as N,N-dimethylformamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone and N,N-dimethylacetamide, aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene and xylene, aprotic polar solvents such as dimethyl sulfoxide and sulfolane, lower alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol, amyl alcohol, isoamyl alcohol, cyclohexyl alcohol and 3-methoxybutanol, and ethers such as dioxane, dimethyl cellosolve, diethyl cellosolve and diglyme. When the solvent is water-soluble, it may be used in an admixture with water. In this case, said acid acceptor is preferably an organic base.
The reaction may be conducted in the temperature range of from about 50.degree. to about 180.degree. C., preferably of from about 80.degree. to about 130.degree. C.
The reaction time is 10 minutes to 48 hours and it is generally sufficient to carry out the reaction for 30 minutes to 30 hours.
When the spiro ring-containing cyclic amine is used in the reaction after protection of its nuclear substituent group, subsequent removal of the protective group from the reaction product can be accomplished by a known method suited to the particular protective group, e.g., hydrolysis or hydrogenolysis.
When the carboxyl moiety in the 3-position (or 3-equivalent position) is not a free carboxyl group, the derivative can be converted to a free carboxylic acid by a known technique suited to each case. For example, when it is an ester, the conventional hydrolysis reaction using alkali hydroxide in an aqueous medium can be employed. In the case of a boron compound, the method using a protonic substance such as an alcohol can be utilized. In this case an acid acceptor may be present in the reaction system. For example, the treatment with ethanol in the presence of triethylamine may be mentioned.
The product spiro compound I can be purified by any or a suitable combination of recrystallization, reprecipitation, treatment with activated carbon, chromatography and other known procedures.

These quinolone derivatives having a spiro ring-containing cyclic amine moiety are more lipophilic than the corresponding quinolone derivatives having no spiro ring and, as such, are expected to be better absorbed after oral administration and exhibit antibacterial activity.
The pyridonecarboxylic acid derivatives according to the present invention can be used as free compounds, acid addition salts or salts of the carboxyl groups thereof. Examples of such acid addition salts include inorganic acid salts such as the hydrochloride, sulfate, nitrate, hydrobromide, hydroiodide, and phosphate, and organic acid salts such as the acetate, methanesulfonate, benzenesulfonate, toluenesulfonate, citrate, maleate, fumarate, and lactate.
Examples of said salts of carboxyl groups include inorganic and organic salts, for example, alkali metal salts such as the lithium salt, sodium salt, and potassium salt, alkaline earth metal salts such as the magnesium salt and calcium salt, ammonium salt, triethylamine salt, N-methylglucamate and tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane salt.
These free compounds, acid addition salts and salts of carboxyl groups of pyridonecarboxylic acid derivatives may exist as hydrates.
On the other hand, quinolone derivatives whose carboxyl moieties are esters are useful as prodrugs or synthetic intermediates.
The esters to be used as prodrugs are esters which are readily cleaved in the body to give free carboxylic acids. Thus, for example, the acetoxymethyl ester, pivaloyloxymethyl ester, ethoxycarbonyloxy ester, choline ester, dimethylaminoethyl ester, 5-indanyl ester, phthalidinyl ester, 5-substituted-2-oxo-1,3-dioxo-4-yl-methyl ester and various oxoalkyl ester such as 3-acetoxy-2-oxobutyl ester are suitable.
The compounds of the present invention have excellent antibacterial activity and thus can be used as human and veterinary medicines, fish medicines, agricultural chemicals and food preservatives.
The dose of the compound of the present invention as the active ingredient of a medicine for human use is in the range of 50 mg to 1 g per adult per day, and preferably of 100 to 300 mg per adult per day. The dose for medicine for use with animals is in the range of from 1 to 200 mg per kg of body weight per day, and preferably of 5 to 100 mg per kg of body weight per day. The daily dose should be adjusted in accordance with such factors as intended use (such as therapeutic or preventive), kind, size or age of the human or the animal to be cured, the kind of pathogenic organisms to be treated and symptoms exhibited, etc.
The daily dose described above may be divided into 1 to 4 times per day. It may be necessary to deviate from the amount described hereinbefore according to causative organisms or the severity of the symptoms exhibited.

Synthesis of 7-acetoxy-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane (compound 69)
A suspension of 1.5 g of compound 12 and 500 mg of lithium aluminum hydride in 30 ml of tetrahydrofuran was refluxed for 16 hours. 0.5 ml of water, 0.5 ml of 15% aqueous sodium hydroxide and 1.5 ml of water were added to the mixture in the mentioned order, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. The insoluble material was removed by filtration and the filtrate was concentrated to dryness to yield 1.4 g of 7-hydroxy-5-[1-(R)-phenylethyl]-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane as a pale yellow oil. 5 ml of acetic anhydride and 5 ml of pyridine were added to 1.4 g of 7-hydroxy-5-[1-(R)-phenylethyl]-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane which was cooled on an ice-bath. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. Ethyl acetate was added thereto and the solution was washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate and water, then, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to yield 1.6 g of 7-acetoxy-5-[1-(R)-phenylethyl]-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane as a yellow oil. A mixture of 1.6 g of 7-acetoxy-5-[1-(R)-phenylethyl]-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane and 1.2 g of palladium-on-carbon (50% water wet) in 20 ml of ethanol was shaken under 3.8 atm of pressured hydrogen atmosphere for 5 hours. During the reduction reaction, the reaction vessel was warmed by a tungsten lamp. The catalyst was removed by filtration and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure to give 880 mg of title compound 69 as an oil.
