Description: This invention relates to novel penicillins and salts thereof, as well as to methods of preparing these compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing them as activeingredients, and methods of using them as antibiotics.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION AND PRIOR ART

It is known that penicillin antibiotics inhibit the growth of various grampositive and gramnegative bacteria. It is further known that only few penicillins have a good activity against important gramnegative problematic germs, such asPseudomonas and Klebsiella, which occur primarily in hospitals. During the last years the frequency of occurrence of infections which are caused by these germs, particularly by Pseudomonas, has increased steadily. While penicillin derivatives such asCarbenicillin (U.S. Pat. No. 3,142,673), Sulbenicillin (U.S. Pat. No. 3,660,379) as well as Ticarcillin (U.S. Pat. No. 3,282,926) are described as antipseudomonal antibiotics, they show in vivo as well as in vitro only a poor activity. Animportant further development are acylated derivatives of .alpha.-aminobenzylpenicillins, e.g. Ampicillin and Amoxycillin. These kinds of compounds have been intensively studied during the last years, and as a result Azlocillin, i.e.6-{D-.alpha.-[(2-oxoimidazolidine-1-yl)carbonylamino]-4-phenylacetamino}-p encillanic acid sodium salt (e.g. Belgian Pat. No. 767,647), has recently been introduced on the market as a further antipseudomonas penicillin. For a successful treatment,however, this penicillin must be administered at high dosages. Moreover, it has only a moderate activity against Klebsiella and various kinds of E. coli. Therefore, it is still a need to search for new penicillins having an increased effectivenessagainst bacteria such as Pseudomonas resp. Klebsiella and E. coli.

While, as mentioned above, much research work has been and is still being done concerning acyl derivatives of .alpha.-aminobenzylpenicillins, there is little knowledge about derivatives in which a heterocycle is attached over a ureido bridge. ##STR2## to the .alpha.-benzyl carbon atoms of .alpha.-amino-benzylpenicillins. Only in German Offenlegungsschriften Nos. 2,450,668 and 25 35 655 and in U.S. Pat. No. 4,031,230 hydroxypyridylureido-benzyl-penicillins of the formula ##STR3## aredisclosed. These compounds are nearest in their structure to the novel penicillins of the present invention. As shown in table I below, a number of the novel penicillins according to the present invention distinguish themselves by a significantlystronger antibacterial activity, particularly against bacteria such as E. coli, Pseudomonas and Klebsiella.

The compounds of the formula I may be present with regard to the chiral centre C+ in both possible R- and S-configurations, but also as a mixture of both these configurations. Especially preferred compounds are those to which theD=R-configuration applies.

The compounds of the formula I may be prepared by the following methods:

Method A

By reacting a compound of the formula ##STR22## wherein A has the same meanings as in formula I, with a pyrimidine derivative of the formula ##STR23## wherein R has the same meanings as in formula I, and B represents the group --NCO or a reactivederivative of the group NHCOOH, such as for example, the groups --NHCOCl, --NHCOBr or ##STR24## where the group NHCOCl is especially preferred. Also, mixtures of those pyrimidine derivatives of the formula IV can be used, where B has two of theabove-mentioned meanings, for example the groups --NCO and ##STR25##

The starting compounds of the formula III can be used in the form of their inorganic or organic salts, e.g. as the triethylammonium salt or the sodium salt. The reaction can be carried out in any desired mixtures of water and these organicsolvents which can be mixed with water; for instance in ketones, such as acetone; in cyclic ethers, such as tetrahydrofuran or dioxane; in nitriles, such as acetonitrile; in formamides, such as dimethylformamide; in dimethylsulfoxide; or in alcohols,such as isopropanol or in hexametapol. The pH-value of the reaction mixture is kept by addition of bases or by use of buffer solutions, within a pH-range of about 2.0 to 9.0, preferably between a pH-value 6.5 and 8.0. But it is also possible to carryout the reaction in anhydrous organic solvents, such as halogenated hydrocarbons like chloroform or methylene chloride, in the presence of a base, preferably triethylamine, diethylamine or N-ethyl-piperidine. The reaction can also be carried out in amixture consisting of water and a solvent immiscible with water, like ethers such as diethylether; halogenated hydrocarbons such as chloroform or methylene chloride; carbon disulfide; ketones such as isobutyl methyl ketone; esters such as ethyl acetate;or aromatic solvents such as benzene; under these conditions it is advantageous to stir vigorously and to keep the pH-value, by addition of bases or by using of buffer solutions, in a range of about pH 2.0 to 9.0, preferably between 6.5 and 8.0. Thereaction can also be carried out in water alone in the presence of an organic or inorganic base or by adding of buffering agents.

If silyl derivatives of the compounds of the formula III (for instance mono- or di-trimethylsilyl derivatives) are used as starting compounds for this method and they are reacted with compounds of the formula IV, it is advantageous to work inanhydrous solvents free from hydroxyl groups, for example in halogenated hydrocarbons, such as methylene chloride or chloroform, benzene, tetrahydrofuran, acetone or dimethylformamide, etc. The addition of bases is not necessary, but can be of advantagein individual cases to improve the yield and the purity of the products. As optionally added bases tertiary aliphatic or aromatic amines, such as pyridine or triethylamine, or due to steric hindrance difficulty acylatable secondary amines, such asdicyclohexylamine are used.

Instead of silyl esters all other carboxyl derivatives of .alpha.-aminobenzyl penicillins which are known in the field of preparation of semi-synthetized penicillins can also be used. Typical examples are the trityl esters, the p-nitrobenzylesters or the phenacyl esters. Subsequent to the reactions, these derivatives can be converted into the penicillins of the present invention by known methods. The amount of bases used is fixed, for example, by the desired adherence to a certainpH-value.

Where a pH-measurement and adjustment is not carried out or is not possible or purposeful because of the lack of sufficient water in the diluting agent, preferably 1.0 to 2.0 mol equivalents of bases are used if the starting compound is anon-silylated compound of the formula II. If a silylated compound is used, preferably up to one mol equivalent of base is supplied.

In principle, all bases are used which are usually used in organic chemistry as organic or inorganic bases, such as alkali metal hydroxides and alkaline earth metal hydroxides, alkaline earth metal oxides, alkali metal carbonates and alkalineearth metal carbonates and bicarbonates, ammonia, primary, secondary and tertiary aliphatic and aromatic amines, as well as heterocyclic bases. Examples are sodium, potassium or calcium hydroxide, calcium oxide, sodium or potassium carbonate, sodium orpotassium bicarbonate, ethylamine, methylethylamine, triethylamine, hydroxy ethylamine, aniline, pyridine and piperidine. When using silylated starting materials, however, the above-mentioned restrictions concerning the kind of bases should be noted.

As buffer systems all usual buffer mixtures can be used, such as phosphate buffer, citrate buffer and tris(hydroxy-methyl)-amino methane buffer.

The reaction temperature can be varied within a wide range. In general, it is between about -20.degree. and about +50.degree. C., preferably between 0.degree. and +20.degree. C.

The reaction partners of the formula II and III can be reacted with each other in equimolar amounts. However, in individual cases it can be of advantage to use one of the two reaction partners in excess, in order to facilitate the purificationof the end product or to increase the yield.

Method B

By reacting a ureido-carboxylic acid of the formula ##STR26## wherein A and R have the same meanings as in formula I, or a salt or reactive derivative thereof, with 6-aminopenicillanic acid of the formula ##STR27## or with an inorganic or organicsalt or derivative thereof which is easily convertible into 6-aminopenicillanic acid. The reaction product obtained is optionally subsequently hydrolyzed or catalytically hydrogenated into a penicillin or the formula I.

Suitable reactive derivatives of the ureido-carboxylic acids of the formula V are, for example, acid anhydrides, such as those which derive from chloroformates, for instance ethyl chloroformate or isobutyl chloroformate, or their reactive esterssuch as the p-nitrophenyl ester or the N-hydroxysuccinimid ester, or their reactive amides such as the N-carbonylimidazole, or also their acid halides such as the corresponding acid chloride, or their acid azides. In principle, however, all reactionmethods can be used which are known from the .beta.-lactam chemistry.

The 6-amino-penicillanic acid is advantageously used in the form of one of its derivatives. Suitable derivatives thereof are, for example the trimethylsilyl ester, the trityl ester, the p-nitrobenzylester, the phenacyl ester and theO,N-bis-trimethylsilyl derivative. These derivatives are reacted preferably in an aprotic solvent like methylene chloride or tetrahydrofuran. But the 6-amino-penicillanic acid can also be used in the form of its salts, for example its triethylammoniumsalt; in that case methylene chloride or a protic solvent or an aqueous medium or an aqueous-organic solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran-water mixtures, are used.

The ureido-carboxylic acid, its salts or its reactive derivatives are reacted with the 6-amino-penicillanic acid or its derivatives in a solvent at temperatures between -40.degree. and +40.degree. C., optionally in the presence of a base. If,for example, an anhydride of the ureido-carboxylic acid such as the anhydride with ethylchloroformate, is reacted with a derivative of the 6-aminopenicillanic acid, the reaction is carried out while cooling, for example at temperatures between-10.degree. and +10.degree. C., in the presence of a tertiary amine such as triethylamine or N,N-dimethylaniline, in a solvent such as acetone, tetrahydrofuran, dimethylformamide, chloroform, dichloromethane, hexametapol or a mixture of these solvents. If, for example, an N-hydroxy-succinimid ester of the ureido-carboxylic acid is reacted with 6-amino-penicillanic acid, the reaction is preferably carried out at temperatures between 0.degree. and 20.degree. C. in the presence of a base such astriethylamine, in a solvent like dimethylformamide, dichloromethane, dioxane or a mixture of such solvents.

The reaction of a ureido-carboxylic acid of the formula IV itself or a salt thereof with 6-amino-penicillanic acid or its salts is carried out advantageously in the presence of a condensation agent such as N,N'-dicyclohexlcarbodiimide.

If a derivative of 6-amino-penicillanic acid is used, for example one of the above-mentioned esters, a reaction product can be obtained which, for example, still contains the ester function, depending on the reaction conditions. Such a reactionproduct is easily convertible into a penicillin of the formula I. If, for example, the carboxylic group of the 6-amino-penicillanic acid is present in the form of a silyl ester, this group can also be present after the reaction in the obtained penicillinof the formula I in the form of the silyl ester. In this case, subsequent to the actual reaction, this silyl ester group is hydrolyzed off, whereby the corresponding compound of the formula I results. In other cases, for example if a p-nitrobenzylester is present, this p-nitrobenzyl ester group is split off by hydrogenation after the actual reaction, whereby the corresponding penicillin of the formula I is obtained.

Further processing of the reaction mixtures resulting from methods A and B is carried out according to methodswhich are conventional for .beta.-lactam-antibiotics; the same is the case for the isolation and purification of the end products, forexample for liberating the acid from its salts and converting the free acid in other salts with inorganic or organic bases. For the preparation of the potassium or sodium salts, particularly the precipitation of these salts from an alcoholic-etherealsolution of the free acid by adding of potassium- or sodium-2-ethylhexanoate is suitable.

The starting compounds of the formula III are known from the literature; see, for example, E. H. Flynn, Cephalosporin and Penicillins, Academic Press, New York and London (1972).

The starting compounds of the formula IV can be obtained, for example, by reaction of the corresponding 5-amino-pyrimidines of the formula ##STR28## wherein R has the same meanings as in formula I, with phosgene. This reaction is preferablycarried out in a solvent not containing hydroxyl groups, such as tetrahydrofuran, methylene chloride, chloroform, dimethoxyethane or hexametapol, at temperatures between -40.degree. and +60.degree. C., preferably between -10.degree. and +20.degree. C., where it is advisable to bind the resulting hydrogen chloride by equimolar amounts of an inert organic base like triethylamine or pyridine. An excess of pyridine can also be used as the solvent. If the corresponding aminopyrimidines of the formulaVII are difficultly soluble in one of the mentioned solvents, the phosgenation can also be carried out in a heterogeneous phase. Furthermore, the aminopyrimidines of the formula VII can, by treatment with a silylating agent like hexamethyldisilazane ortrimethyl-chlorosilane/triethylamine, be converted into a mono- or, depending upon the number of exchangeable hydrogen atoms, multi-silylated aminopyrimidine which is easily soluble in the abovementioned solvents. The thus obtained aminopyrimidine isreacted with phosgene into the corresponding compound of the formula IV. Depending on the kind of the solvent, the height of the temperature, the amount and the kind of the base used, either mainly the corresponding isocyanate or carbamic acid halide ora mixture of these two compounds is obtained. Depending on the reaction conditions, the compound of the formula IV can also be present, slightly or partly as an isocyanate isomer, that is, as a tetrahydro-oxazolo-pyrimidine of the formula ##STR29##

The starting compounds of the formula IV or their mixtures obtained by phosgenation are, in general, readily soluble in the above-mentioned solvents, and after removal of the excess phosgene, they can be reacted directly without furtherpurification with the corresponding penicillin derivatives of the formula III.

2-Substituted 5-amino-4-hydroxy-pyrimidines of the formula VII are sparsely described in the literature; for example, for

For the preparation of pyrimidines of the formula VII therefore, several processes were developed, of which the most important ones are indicated below, where, depending upon the meaning of R, the most favorable method should be used for thesynthesis of compound VII.

(b) Reaction of ethyl ethoxymethylene-nitroacetate of the formula X with compounds of the formula IX and subsequent reduction of the nitro group according to known methods pursuant to the reaction sequence. ##STR31##

(d) Acylation of 2-amino-4-hydroxy-5-nitropyrimidines of the formula XII and subsequent reduction ##STR33## By this method compounds of the formula VII are obtained where R represents the group--NHCOR.sub.11.

(e) Reaction of 2-methylmercapto-4-hydroxy-5-nitropyrimidines of the formula XIIIa [literature reference: Vorbruggen and Strehlke, Chem. Ber. 106, p. 3039 (1973)] or of 5-benzoylamino-4-hydroxy-2-methylmercapto-pyrimidines of the formula XIIIb(or its derivatives oxidized at the sulfur atom) with substituted amines, and subsequent reduction or hydrolysis: ##STR34##

By this method compounds of the formula VII are obtained, where R represents the group --NR.sub.4 R.sub.5.

EXAMPLE 53

D-.alpha.-[3-(2-m-chlorobenzyl-4-hydroxy-5-pyrimidyl)-ureido]-benzyl-penici llin sodium

A suspension of 2.16 gm (0.01 mol) of 6-aminopenicillanic acid and 3 ml of N,O-bis-(trimethylsilyl)acetamide in dry dimethyl formamide (30 ml) is stirred for 2 hours at room temperature. This solution is dropped at -10.degree. C. into asolution prepared at -15.degree. C. of 4.25 gm (0.01 mol) of D-.alpha.-[3-(2-m-chlorobenzyl-4-hydroxy-5-pyrimidyl)-ureido]-phenylglycin e, 1.0 gm of N-methylmorpholine and 1.0 gm of ethyl chloroformate in absolute tetrahydrofurane. The mixture isstirred for 1 hour at 0.degree. C. and for 1 hour at room temperature, tetrahydrofurane and a part of the dimethyl formamide are removed in vacuo and the product is then mixed with 250 ml of ice water. The aqueous solution is adjusted to pH 7.0 andextraced twice with ethyl acetate. It is then cooled, covered with a layer of 200 ml of ethyl acetate and adjusted to pH 2 with dilute hydrochloric acid. The aqueous phase is extracted once again with ethyl acetate, the ethyl acetate phases are unitedand dried and the solvent is removed in vacuo. The sodium salt is prepared in a conventional way from the penicillin acid.

Yield: 2.92 gm of sodium salt (46%).
