FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to nitrogen containing compounds, their preparation and their use in preventing or treating infections.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Emergence of bacterial resistance to known antibacterial agents is becoming a major challenge in treating bacterial infections. One way forward to treat bacterial infections, and especially those caused by resistant bacteria, is to develop newer antibacterial agents that can overcome the bacterial resistant. Coates et al. {Br. J. Pharmacol. 2007; 152(8), 1147- 1154.) have reviewed novel approaches to developing new antibiotics. However, the development of new antibacterial agents is a challenging task. For example, Gwynn et al. {Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2010, 1213: 5- 19) have reviewed the challenges in discovery of antibacterial agents. Several antibacterial agents have been described in the prior art (for example, see PCT International Application Nos. PCT/US 2010/060923, PCT/EP2010/067647, PCT/US2010/052109, PCT/US2010/048109, PCT/GB2009/050609, PCT/FR01/02418, PCT/EP2009/056178, PCT/US2009/041200, PCT/IB2012/054290, PCT/IB2013/053092, PCT/IB2012/054296, PCT/IB2012/054706, PCT/JP2013/064971, PCT/IB2012/002675, PCT/US2013/034562 and PCT/US2013/034589). However, there remains a need for development of antibacterial agents for preventing and/or treating bacterial infections, including those caused by bacteria that are resistant to known antibacterial agents.

The inventors have now surprisingly discovered nitrogen containing compounds having antibacterial activity.

The term "halogen" or halo as used herein refers to chlorine, bromine, fluorine or iodine. The term "Boc" as used herein refers to fert-butyloxycarbonyl group

The term "stereoisomers" as used herein refers to compounds that have identical chemical constitution, but differ with regard to the arrangement of their atoms or groups in space. The compounds of Formula (I) may contain asymmetric or chiral centers and, therefore, exist in different stereoisomeric forms. It is intended, unless specified otherwise, that all stereoisomeric forms of the compounds of Formula (I) as well as mixtures thereof, including racemic mixtures, form part of the present invention. In addition, the present invention embraces all geometric and positional isomers (including cis and trans-forms), as well as mixtures thereof, are embraced within the scope of the invention. In general, a reference to a compound is intended to cover its stereoisomers and mixture of various stereoisomers.

The term "optionally substituted" as used herein means that substitution is optional and therefore includes both unsubstituted and substituted atoms and moieties. A "substituted" atom or moiety indicates that any hydrogen on the designated atom or moiety can be replaced with a selection from the indicated substituent group, provided that the normal valency of the designated atom or moiety is not exceeded, and that the substitution results in a stable compound.

The term "pharmaceutically acceptable derivative" as used herein refers to and includes any pharmaceutically acceptable salt, pro-drug, metabolite, ester, ether, hydrate, polymorph, solvate, complex, and adduct of a compound described herein which, upon administration to a subject, is capable of providing (directly or indirectly) the parent compound. For example, the term "antibacterial agent or a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative thereof includes all derivatives of the antibacterial agent (such as salts, pro-drugs, metabolites, esters, ethers, hydrates, polymorphs, solvates, complexes, and adducts) which, upon administration to a subject, are capable of providing (directly or indirectly) the antibacterial agent.

The term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" as used herein refers to one or more salts of a given compound which possesses the desired pharmacological activity of the free compound and which are neither biologically nor otherwise undesirable. In general, the "pharmaceutically acceptable salts" refer to salts that are suitable for use in contact with the tissues of human and animals without undue toxicity, irrigation, allergic response and the like, and are commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are well known in the art. For example, S. M. Berge, et al. (/. Pharmaceutical Sciences, 66; 1-19, 1977), incorporated herein by reference in its entirety, describes various pharmaceutical acceptable salts in details.

In general, the compounds according to the invention contain basic (e.g. nitrogen atoms) as well as acid moieties (e.g. compounds of Formula (I) wherein M is hydrogen). A person of skills in the art would appreciate that such compounds, therefore, can form acidic salts (formed with inorganic and/or organic acids), as well as basic salts (formed with inorganic and/or organic bases). Such salts can be prepared using procedures described in the art. For example, the basic moiety can be converted to its salt by treating a compound with a suitable amount of acid. Typical, non- limiting examples of such suitable acids include hydrochloric acid, trifluoro acetic acid, methanesulfonic acid or the like. Alternatively, the acid moiety may be converted into its salt by treating with a suitable base. Typical non-limiting examples of such bases include sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium ethylhexanoate, potassium carbonate, potassium bicarbonate, potassium ethyl hexanoate or the like. In case of compounds containing more than one functional group capable of being converted into salt, each such functional group may be converted to salt independently. For example, in case of compounds containing two basic nitrogen atoms, one of the basic nitrogen can form salt with one acid while the other basic nitrogen can form salt with another acid. Some compounds according to the invention contain both acidic as well as basic moieties, and thus can form inner salts or corresponding zwitterions. In general, all pharmaceutically acceptable salt forms of compound of Formula (I) according to invention including acid addition salts, base addition salts, zwitterions or the like are contemplated to be within the scope of the present invention and are generically referred to as pharmaceutically acceptable salts.

The term "infection" or "bacterial infection" as used herein includes presence of bacteria, in or on a subject, which, if its growth were inhibited, would result in a benefit to the subject. As such, the term "infection" in addition to referring to the presence of bacteria also refers to presence of other floras, which are not desirable. The term "infection" includes infection caused by bacteria.

The term "treat", "treating" or "treatment" as used herein refers to administration of a medicament, including a pharmaceutical composition, or one or more pharmaceutically active ingredients, for prophylactic and/or therapeutic purposes. The term "prophylactic treatment" refers to treating a subject who is not yet infected, but who is susceptible to, or otherwise at a risk of infection (preventing the bacterial infection). The term "therapeutic treatment" refers to administering treatment to a subject already suffering from infection. The terms "treat", "treating" or "treatment" as used herein also refer to administering compositions, or one or more of pharmaceutically active ingredients discussed herein, with or without additional pharmaceutically active or inert ingredients, in order to: (i) reduce or eliminate either a bacterial infection, or one or more symptoms of a bacterial infection, or (ii) retard progression of a bacterial infection, or one or more symptoms of a bacterial infection, or (iii) reduce severity of a bacterial infection, or one or more symptoms of a bacterial infection, or (iv) suppress clinical manifestation of a bacterial infection, or (v) suppress manifestation of adverse symptoms of a bacterial infection. The terms "pharmaceutically effective amount" or "therapeutically effective amount" or "effective amount" as used herein refer to an amount, which has a therapeutic effect or is the amount required to produce a therapeutic effect in a subject. For example, a "therapeutically effective amount" or "pharmaceutically effective amount" or "effective amount" of an antibacterial agent or a pharmaceutical composition is the amount of the antibacterial agent or the pharmaceutical composition required to produce a desired therapeutic effect as may be judged by clinical trial results, model animal infection studies, and/or in vitro studies (e.g. in agar or broth media). Such effective amount depends on several factors, including but not limited to, the microorganism (e.g. bacteria) involved, characteristics of the subject (for example height, weight, sex, age and medical history), severity of infection and particular type of the antibacterial agent used. For prophylactic treatments, a prophylactically effective amount is that amount which would be effective in preventing the bacterial infection.

The term "administration" or "administering" refers to and includes delivery of a composition, or one or more pharmaceutically active ingredients to a subject, including for example, by any appropriate method, which serves to deliver the composition or its active ingredients or other pharmaceutically active ingredients to the site of infection. The method of administration may vary depending on various factors, such as for example, the components of the pharmaceutical composition or type/nature of the pharmaceutically active or inert ingredients, site of the potential or actual infection, the microorganism involved, severity of the infection, age and physical condition of the subject and a like. Some non-limiting examples of ways to administer a composition or a pharmaceutically active ingredient to a subject according to this invention include oral, intravenous, topical, intrarespiratory, intraperitoneal, intramuscular, parenteral, sublingual, transdermal, intranasal, aerosol, intraocular, intratracheal, intrarectal, vaginal, gene gun, dermal patch, eye drop and mouthwash. In case of a pharmaceutical composition comprising more than one ingredients (active or inert), one of the ways of administering such composition is by admixing the ingredients (e.g. in the form of a suitable unit dosage form such as tablet, capsule, solution, powder or a like) and then administering the dosage form. Alternatively, the ingredients may also be administered separately (simultaneously or one after the other) as long as these ingredients reach beneficial therapeutic levels such that the composition as a whole provides a synergistic and/or desired effect.

The term "growth" as used herein refers to a growth of one or more microorganisms and includes reproduction or population expansion of the microorganism (e.g. bacteria). The term "growth" also includes maintenance of on-going metabolic processes of the microorganism, including the processes that keep the microorganism alive.

The term, "effectiveness" as used herein refers to ability of a treatment, or a composition, or one or more pharmaceutically active ingredients to produce a desired biological effect in a subject. For example, the term "antibacterial effectiveness" of a composition or of an antibacterial agent refers to the ability of the composition or the antibacterial agent to prevent or treat bacterial infection in a subject.

The term "synergistic" or "synergy" as used herein refers to the interaction of two or more agents so that their combined effect is greater than their individual effects.

The term "antibacterial agent" as used herein refers to any substance, compound, a combination of substances, or a combination of compounds capable of: (i) inhibiting, reducing or preventing growth of bacteria; (ii) inhibiting or reducing ability of a bacteria to produce infection in a subject; or (iii) inhibiting or reducing ability of bacteria to multiply or remain infective in the environment. The term "antibacterial agent" also refers to compounds capable of decreasing infectivity or virulence of bacteria. The term "beta- lactamase" or "beta-lactamase enzyme" as used herein refers to any enzyme or protein or any other substance that breaks down a beta-lactam ring. The term "beta-lactamase" includes enzymes that are produced by bacteria and have the ability to hydrolyze the beta-lactam ring in a beta-lactam compound, either partially or completely.

The term "beta-lactamase inhibitor" as used herein refers to a compound capable of inhibiting activity of one or more beta-lactamase enzymes, either partially or completely.

The term "pharmaceutically inert ingredient" or "carrier" or "excipient" refers to and includes compounds or materials used to facilitate administration of a compound, for example, to increase the solubility of the compound. Typical, non-limiting examples of solid carriers include starch, lactose, dicalcium phosphate, sucrose, and kaolin. Typical, non-limiting examples of liquid carriers include sterile water, saline, buffers, non-ionic surfactants, and edible oils. In addition, various adjuvants commonly used in the art may also be included. These and other such compounds are described in literature, e.g., in the Merck Index (Merck & Company, Rahway, N.J.). Considerations for inclusion of various components in pharmaceutical compositions are described, e.g., in Gilman et al. (Goodman and Gilman's: The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, 8th Ed., Pergamon Press., 1990), which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

The term "subject" as used herein refers to vertebrate or invertebrate, including a mammal. The term "subject" includes human, animal, a bird, a fish, or an amphibian.

To the aqueous layer was added tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulphate (1.16 g, 03 mmol) and the mixture was stirred for 3 hour at room temperature. The reaction mixture was extracted with dichloromethane (2x30 ml). The organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated under reduced pressure to obtain oily residue. This was purified by column chromatography over silica gel (60-120 mesh size). The column was eluted with a mixture of dichloromethane and methanol (5:95) as an eluent. The combined solvent fractions were evaporated to obtain 1.4 g of the titled product as a white solid in 56% yield.

Step 9: Synthesis of (25,5 f)-N-[(3-aminobenzyl)oxy]-7-oxo-6-(sulfooxy)-l,6-diazabicyclo

[3.2.1] octane-2-carboxamide: To a solution of tetrabutylammonium salt obtained in Step-8 (1.4 g, 19 mmol) in dichloromethane (7 ml) was slowly added trifluoro acetic acid (3.5 ml) under stirring and argon atmosphere at 0°C. The progress of reaction was monitored by taking mass spectra after regular intervals. After 1 hour, complete consumption of starting material was observed. The reaction mixture was evaporated and the residue triturated with diethyl ether (15 ml) for 10 minutes. The separated solid was filtered under suction. The solid was further suspended in acetonitrile (15 ml) under stirring, filtered and washed with acetonitrile. The solid was dried under reduced pressure to obtain 540 mg of the titled product in 79% yield.

BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY DATA

The biological activity of representative compounds according to the invention against various bacterial strains was investigated. In a typical study, overnight grown bacterial cultures were diluted appropriately and inoculated on the agar media containing doubling dilutions of the test compounds. Observations for growth or no growth was performed after 16-20 hours of incubation at 35 ± 2°C in the ambient air. The overall procedure was performed as per Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) recommendations, (Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI), Performance Standards for Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing, 20th Informational Supplement, M07-A9, Volume 32, No. 2, 2012). Molten Mueller Hinton Agar (BD, USA) containing serial dilutions of each antibacterial agent were poured on to the plates and allowed to solidify. Appropriate suspensions from the freshly grown cultures were prepared in normal saline so that about 10⁴ CFU/spot of the organism was delivered on to the drug containing agar plates using automated multipoint inoculator (Mast, UK). The plates were incubated in Biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) incubator at 37°C for 18 hours and then examined for growth.

Method for the determination of Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC): The antibacterial activity of compounds according to present invention was investigated in combination with Ceftazidime. Typically, the plates were poured with MHA containing doubling concentration range of Ceftazidime in combination with constant concentration (4 mcg/ml) of representative compounds of Formula (I). The plates were inoculated and were incubated at 37°C for 18 hour. MICs were read as the lowest concentration of drug that completely inhibited bacterial growth.Table 2 shows the MIC values of Ceftazidime in presence of representative compound of Formula (I) (at 4 mcg/ml). As shown in Table 2, the MIC value of Ceftazidime was significantly lowered in presence of the compound according to the invention. The obtained results suggest that the compounds according to invention increase antibacterial effectiveness of an antibacterial agent when said antibacterial agent is co-administered with a compound of Formula (I) or a stereoisomer or a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative thereof.
