ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE

7-amino- .DELTA. 3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid esters of the general formula I

Description

1V ~4 The preser.t in~ention relates to 7-amino-~ 3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid esters and a process for their manufacture.
The esters of this invention have the advantage that tkey are readlly soluble in organic solvents, in contradistinction to the free acids, and thus are important as valuable intermediates for further reactions in anhydrous medium. They can be used for the acylation with mois+vure-sensi~ive carboxylic acid derivatives to yield new 7-acylaminocephem-carboxylic acid esters which can be split with the ester component suitably chosen without diffi-culty into the 7-acylaminocephem-carboxylic acids which are v~luable anti~iotics. Some of the acylated 7-amino-~3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid esters are important therapeutic agents which can be split after oral administration and resorption by un-specific ester a~es.
Therefore, it was desirable to provide a process giving good access to the esters of the 7-amino.D3-cephem-4-carboxylic acids readily soluble in organic ~olvents.
It is known (according to Belgian Patent No. 717 741 and 719 712) that th corre~ponding amino acid esters having a free amino group can be obtained by treating 7-acylamino-~3-cephem-4-carboxylic acld e8ters with pho8phorou~ pentachloride, a base, an alcohol and following hydrolysi~. However, thls known reaction is not sati~factory, e~pecially with ~espec~ to the yleld.
The Patent Specifications mentioned also do not describe any examples of cephe~ compounds the CH2-group of which is linked to cyclic compounds ~n 3-po~itlon oY4~ sulfur.
When these processes which are descrlbed as being op~imum 29 are used ~or those cephem compounds the end products desired are _ 2 - ~

Now, it was found, that cephem compounds of the general formula II bind one mol PC15 in complex form so that the amide group is not attacked.

; -The 7-acylamir.o-f~-cephem-4-carboxylic acids of the I general formula II used as starting materials can easily be - prepared from the corresponding acid~ disclosed in literature (cf. Patent Specifications Nos. 3,516,997 and 3,530,123 and the Netherland Specification No. 7,005,519) by esterification.
As esterification methods, there may be mentioned:
a) Reaction of the carboxylic acids with aliphatic diazo com-pounds, for example diazomethane and diphenyl-diazomethane.
I b) Reaction of the carboxylic acids with alcohols R2-OH in the presence of condensation agents, for example dicycl-ohexyl-carbodiimide.
c) Activation of the carboxylic acids by formation o~ mixed anhydrides and following reaction with alcohols ~2-OH.
d) Reaction of salts of the carboxylic ~cids with alkyl halides for example methyl iodide, benzyl bromide, p-methoxybenzyl chloride, pivalic acid chloromethyl ester, acetic acid chloro-methyl ester, 3-bromophthalide and chloromethyl-methyl ether.
In the 7-acylamino-~ cephem-4-carboxylic acid ester~
of the general formula II used as starting materials functional - 20 groups capable of disturbing the followlng reaction steps, must be protected expediently.
Therefore, it is recommended to block hydroxy, amino and carboxy groups according to generally known methods.
An ester of the general formula II is reacted, in accordance with the invention, in an inert solvent with a silylating reactant in the presence of a base.
Suitable inert solvents are, for example, halogenated hydrocarbons, ethers, ketones and esters.
29 Suitable silylating agents are preferably strong silylating -: 15 ~' ~r 1~7429~ -.
reactants, for example, trimethyl chlorosilane, dime~hyldi-chlorosilane, methyltrichlorosilane, triethylchiorosilane, trimethylbromosilane, phenyltrichlorosilane, methoxytrich'oro-silane, N,0-bistrimethyl-silyl-acetamide and trimethylsi~yltri-fluoro-acetamide. Trimethyl-chlorosilane and dimethyldichloro-silane are preferably used.
Especially high yields may be obtained when molar amounts of the reactants are used, especially with a molar excess of -the silylating agent, for example, an excess of from 1.5 to 2 moles. However, less than molar amounts may also suffice to increase the yield.
The bases used in accordance with the invention are pre-ferably organic bases, especially tertiary amines which may carry one or more than one substituent, these substituents being the same or different, for example, triethylamir.e, N,N-dimethyl aniline, N,N-diethyl aniline, N-methyl piperidine and N-ethyl morpholine, and amines, whose nitrogen &tom is part of ~n aromatic ring, for example, pyridine and its substitution products with inert substituents, for example, picolines, and quinoline and derivatives thereof having inert substituents.
N,N--dimethyl aniline i8 especially suitable for the process of the invention.
The base i5 used in at least an equimolar amoun~, cal-culated on the silylating agent. The reaction may be carried out at temperatures within the range of from about 0 to about 100C, preferably from 10 to 60C. When carrying out the reaction at room temperature, which is the preferred temperature, it is 800n completed.

preferably in the same inert solvent whereupon a complex-like compound is formed. Spectrographic data and model reactions show that the complex is formed at the heterocyclic group in 3-position.
For example, the NMR-spectrum shows that the signal for the proton in the thiadiazole is shifted from 538 Hz towards 565 Hz against TMS (measured in CDC13). The stabillty of the complexes depends above all on the reaction temperature. At low temperatures (-30 to -70C) and the complexes are stable, at room temperature decomposition can be observed. Therefore, it is advantageous not to isolate the complexes formed but to continue their reaction, as that of the acylamino group activated by the silylation of the invention with halogenating agents in the presence of bases to form the iminohalide at low temperatures. For this purpose, acid halides can be used, for example phosphorus oxychloride, phos-phorus pentachloride, phosphorus trichloride, thionyl chloride, phosgene or oxalkyl chloride. Especially suitable is phosphorus pentachloride.
The halogenation reaction succeeds with at least equi-molar amounts of halogenating agents, calculated on the cephem compound. To obtain expecially high yields it is good to operate _ with an excess amount, for example from 1.5 times to 3 times the amount.
The conversion into the iminohalide group is also carried out in an inert solvent. In order to simplify the experi-mental conditions it is advantageous to use the same solvents as those used for the silylation reaction and to introduce the agent forming the iminohalide in substance or in solution.
For this reaction too, the presence of a base is re-quired. Suitable bases are the organic bases already mentionedes-1074~9 _ 73/F 363 -- . .
pecially tertiary amines. They are advàntageously the same as those used for the silylation. The base can be added in two portions, i. 2 . ~ when silylating the amido group and when converting it into the iminohalide. It is, however, more advantageous to add the total ameur,t of base required for both steps before silylation.
The formation of iminohalide may be carried out in a wide témperature range, for example, from -100 to + 100C.
High yields, however, are obtained when a temperature within the range of from 0 to -80C, preferably from -30 to -50C, i~ uQed.
The iminohalide is con~.~erted into an imino ether in known manner by adding an alcohol to the reaction mixture.
For thi~ purpose, an exce~s of from 5 to 40 moles of alcohol per mole of imino halide i~ ad~antageou~ly used. Suitable alcohols are especially the inexpensive low molecular weight aliphatic alcohols, for example, methanol, ethanol, isopro-panol or n-butanol. To avoid undesired ~ide reactionsthe alcohol used should be as anhydrous as possible and the temperature as low as from ~30 to -80C, especially from -30 to -50C.
The hydrolysis of the imino ether may be carried out in known manner, especially by pouring the deep frozen reaction mixture into 2 to 3 t1me~ the amount of water, ~tirring for some time and isolatin6 the resulting ester of the general formula I.
The isolation may be carried out according to various methods. The ester may, for example, be separated by filtration 29 in the form of a scarcely soluble ~alt formed during the -. ~, --.-. . .

reaction, for example, the hydrochloride, cr the ester may be freed from such a s lt by adding an inorganic base, in which case it may be separated with the organic phase and isolated directly or in the form of salts. Suitable salts for this purpose are, for example, the sulphonates, for example ~-toluene sulphonates or B-~Qp~hth ~ ino sulphonates or salts of organic acids, for example, acetates.
The salts of the 7-amino-~-cephem-4-carboxylic acid esters of the general formula I are especially suitable for purifying the products of the invention, for example by re-crystallisation. Moreover, their storage capacity is better in this form than that of the compounds of the invention. There may be used, for example salts with inorganic acids, for example hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid or with organic acids, for example acetic acid and arylsulfonic acids, for example p--toluene-sulfonic acid, ~-naphthalenesulfonic acid and alkylsulfonic acid, for example methanesulfonic acid.
The preparation can be effected in usual maImer, by associating equimolar amounts of base and acid component in a suitable solvent.
In addition to the 7-amino-~ 3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid esters described in the following experimental examples there may also be obtained, in accordance with the invention, the compounds of the general formula I
