Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to novel lactivicin compounds having a unique bicyclic dipeptide structure, namely 2-[(4S)-4-acetamido-3-oxo-1,2-oxazolidin-2-yl]-5-oxooxolane-2-carboxylicacid, pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, uses, and methods for preparing these compounds. More specifically, novel lactivicin compounds with enhanced antibacterial activity and combinations of these compounds with β-lactamase inhibitors are provided, said combinations being active against a wide range of drug-resistant pathogenic microorganisms. Background Technology

[0002] Public health experts and officials consider the emergence and spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria to be one of the major public health problems of the 21st century. While most resistant strains continue to emerge in hospital settings, physicians and epidemiologists are encountering increasing numbers of resistant bacteria in the community, even among individuals with no prior medical exposure. Infections caused by multidrug-resistant Gram-negative pathogens, including the bacteria that make up ESKAPE organisms, typically involve six pathogens: Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Enterobacter, for which treatments are particularly limited.

[0003] Historically, highly successful and well-tolerated β-lactam antibiotics have been the primary treatments for infections caused by Gram-negative pathogens. However, the vast array of over 1,000 different β-lactamases, generated by bacterial and other bacterial resistance mechanisms, seriously threatens the current medium-term availability of β-lactam antibiotics. Extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) and carbapenemases are particularly important drivers of resistance, inactivation of β-lactam antibiotics, and their ineffectiveness in treating infections. Consequently, morbidity and mortality from bacterial infections continue to rise in hospital and community settings, and bacterial resistance has become a major public health problem.

[0004] There is an urgent need for new agents with anti-destructive properties to fill the gap. Therefore, there is a need to develop new classes of antibiotics that exhibit more effective antibacterial activity and are particularly effective against a variety of β-lactamases that produce Gram-negative bacteria.

[0005] Lactivicin is the first non-β-lactam antibiotic with a bicyclic dipeptide backbone described in the literature. It was isolated from soil samples collected in Japan by the Takeda Group. Lactivicin possesses a unique bicyclic dipeptide structure and exhibits bacterial penicillin-binding protein (PBP) affinity similar to that of β-lactam antibiotics. However, it has low sensitivity to β-lactamases. [Nature, 1987, Vol. 325, pp. 179-180; J. Chem. Soc. Chem. Commun., 1987, (2), pp. 62-63; Tetrahedron Lett.,1986,Vol.27,No.51,pp.6229-6232; Tetrahedron,1988,Vol.44,No.11,pp.3231-3240; Tetrahedron,1988,Vol.44, No.21, pp.6589-6606; J. Antibiot., 1989, Vol. 42, No. 1, pp. 84-93; Chem. Pharm. Bull., 1990, Vol. 38. No. 1, pp. 116-122; US 4,851,422(1989); EP 0191989A1; WO 87 / 00527; EP 0219923 A1].

[0006] As specific examples of lactivicin, US 4,851,422 and EP0219923B1 disclose 2-(3-oxo-2-isoxazolyl)-5-oxo-2-tetrahydrofuran carboxylate of the following formula, which is an exemplary structure of lactivicin:

[0007]

[0008] Where R 5 R 6 R 7 and R 8 Independently hydrogen, C 1-6 Alkyl, phenyl, or benzyl groups, which can be C 1-6 Acylamino or C 1-6 Alkoxy substitution, which can be achieved through bonding with oxygen or sulfur atoms, or R 5 and / or R 6 With R 7 Or R 8 Forming chemical bonds to form double bonds, or R5 Or R 6 With R 7 Or R 8 A benzene ring is formed.

[0009] In search of different classes of antibiotics with novel nuclei, the Takeda Group prepared several derivatives of lactivicin with various amide moieties at the C-4 position [J. Chem. Soc. Chem. Commun., 1987, (2), pp. 62-63]. Compounds with a 2-aminothiazol-4-yl-(Z)-2-methoxyiminoacetyl side chain showed improved and enhanced antibacterial activity compared to natural lactivicin. Furthermore, some compounds showed protective effects in experimentally infected mice [Chem. Pharm. Bull., 1990, Vol. 38, No. 1, pp. 116-122; Tetrahedron, 1988, Vol. 44, No. 21, pp. 6589-6606].

[0010] Attempts to enhance cellular uptake of β-lactams through the use of iron-siderophore uptake systems in microorganisms are a concept explored in the field of monocyclic β-lactams (Basilea (WO2007 / 065288), NAEJA Pharmaceuticals (WO2002 / 022613), and Squibb & Sons (US5290929, EP531976, EP484881)). Furthermore, BMS-180680 is a catechol-containing monocyclic β-lactam that appears to enhance bacterial outer membrane uptake using Cir and Fiu iron-regulated outer membrane receptor proteins and a TonB-dependent iron transport system. Therefore, BMS-180680 exhibits excellent activity against many Gram-negative bacteria [Antimicrob. Agents & Chemother., 1997, Vol. 41, No. 5, pp. 1010-1016]. Furthermore, Shionogi & Co. Ltd. discovered a novel cephalosporin containing catechol [Antimicrob. Agents & Chemother., 2016, Vol. 60, No. 12, pp. 7396-7401] and introduced it clinically as cefidil. Recently, Pfizer re-examined the siderophore receptor-mediated uptake of catechol-containing lactivicin in Gram-negative bacteria [J. Med. Chem. 2014, 57, 3845-3855]. Another group [Antimicrob. Agents & Chemother., 2016, Vol. 60, No. 7, pp. 4170-4175] showed that iron-containing modification of lactivicin significantly increased its potency against clinical isolates of extensively drug-resistant Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. In summary, iron-containing conjugates of lactivicin represent a clearly unexplored class with a novel bicyclic dipeptide core, warranting further investigation through the preparation of additional novel analogs to identify new and effective antimicrobial agents. This invention aims to achieve these and other important objectives. Summary of the Invention

[0137] Manufacturing method

[0138] The present invention also relates to a method for preparing compounds of formula (I). The following scheme 1 illustrates a general method for preparation, which is not intended to be limited to any particular compound described herein.

[0139] Option 1

[0140]

[0141] In formulas (II), (III), and (IV), Pg′ and Pg″ represent carboxyl protecting groups that are frequently used in β-lactam chemistry to protect the carboxyl group.

[0142] The carboxyl protecting groups Pg′ and Pg″ may be residues that form aliphatic or aryl alcohols in ester formation.

[0143] Examples of carboxyl protecting groups include isopropyl, tert-butyl, methoxymethyl, ethoxymethyl, isobutoxymethyl, acetoxymethyl, propionyloxymethyl, butyryloxymethyl, valeratemethyl, 1-methoxycarbonyloxyethyl, 1-ethoxycarbonyloxyethyl, p-methoxybenzyl, benzyl, o-nitrophenyl, p-nitrophenyl, 2,4-dinitrophenylmethyl, diphenylmethyl, phthaloyl, and allyl.

[0144] In any intermediate of formula (I), when an amino group is present in the molecule, it should be understood that it must be protected by a suitable amino protecting group as is commonly used in β-lactam chemistry.

[0145] Examples of amino protecting groups include triphenylmethyl, p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl (PNZ), and tert-butyloxycarbonyl.

[0146] Similarly, it can be understood that the hydroxyl groups of the catechols or hydroxypyridinones present in formulas (III) and (IV) must be protected with appropriate hydroxyl protecting groups.

[0147] Examples of suitable hydroxyl protecting groups include, but are not limited to, benzyl ethers, diphenylmethyl ethers, and diphenylmethylene ketals.

[0148] The protecting group can be removed by any convenient method suitable for removing the protecting group, as described in the literature or known to a professional chemist, such as the method chosen so that the removal of the protecting group causes minimal interference to other groups in the molecule.

[0149] The removal of the carboxyl, amino, and hydroxyl protecting groups from the catechol or hydroxypyridinone in intermediate (IV) can be carried out through conventional procedures, such as treatment with acids or reducing agents. Examples of acids include trifluoroacetic acid, formic acid, acetic acid, and hydrochloric acid. Examples of Lewis acids used are boron trifluoride ether, zinc chloride, tin tetrachloride, aluminum chloride, titanium tetrachloride, or boron trichloride.

[0150] When removal is carried out by catalytic hydrogenolysis, any procedure using palladium or platinum catalysts can be employed.

[0151] The removal of carboxyl protecting groups, hydroxyl protecting groups of catechol and hydroxypyridinone moieties, and amino protecting groups can preferably be carried out simultaneously or through a stepwise method.

[0152] The present invention also includes methods for preparing specific fragments, such as compounds (IIIa′) and (IIIa″) of formula (III) in Scheme 1, which are described in Schemes 2 and 3 below, respectively, illustrating only general methods of preparation and not intended to be limited to any specific compound described herein.

[0153]

[0154]

[0155] The compounds of the present invention can be prepared by removing the protecting group from the compound of formula (IV) under acidic conditions and catalytic hydrogenolysis.

[0156] Acidic conditions may involve treating compound (IV) with boron trichloride, formic acid, acetic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, or hydrochloric acid for 10 minutes to 16 hours in a temperature range of -78°C to 100°C. Boron trichloride is preferably used for 1 to 3 hours in a temperature range of -78°C to -20°C.

[0157] Compounds of formula (II) may be synthesized according to the following references, all of which are incorporated herein by reference: Chem. Pharm. Bull., 1990, Vol. 38, No. 11, pp. 116-122; J. Chem. Soc., Chem. Commun., 1987, (2), pp. 62-63; J. Med. Chem., 2014, Vol. 57, pp. 3845-3855, or by means of adaptation known to those skilled in the art.

[0158] The substituted 2-ketoglutarate of formula (III) can be synthesized according to the following reference: J. Med. Chem., 2014, Vol. 57, pp. 3845-3855, or by adapting the reference procedure in a manner known to those skilled in the art. The preparation of specific fragments such as (IIIa′) and (IIIa″) are shown in Schemes 2 and 3, respectively.

[0159] In the presence of a coupling agent, the coupling reaction between intermediate (II) and intermediate (III) typically occurs in an inert solvent, where, where applicable, a base is added for 1-24 hours at a temperature range of -20°C to 80°C, preferably overnight at 20-30°C. Inert solvents are, for example, dichloromethane (DCM), toluene, tetrahydrofuran (THF), 1,4-dioxane, N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA), N-methylpyrrolidone-2-one (NMP), and acetonitrile, as well as mixtures of the above solvents. Tetrahydrofuran is the preferred solvent.

[0160] Suitable coupling agents are, for example, carbodiimides, such as N,N'-diethyl-, N,N'-dipropyl-, N,N'-diisopropyl-, N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, N-ethyl-N'-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC), carbonyl diimidazole (CDI), and O-(benzotriazol-1-yl)-N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylurea hexafluorophosphate (HBTU). Or O-(7-azabenzotriazol-1-yl)-N,N,N′,N'-tetramethylurea hexafluorophosphate (HATU) or 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBT) or (benzotriazol-1-yloxy)tris(dimethylamino)hexafluorophosphate (BOP), or (benzotriazol-1-yloxy)tripyrrolidine hexafluorophosphate (PyBOP), or N-hydroxysuccinimide, or mixtures thereof, with or without a base. Suitable bases are, for example, carbonates and bicarbonates, triethylamine, diisopropylethylamine, N-methylmorpholine, N-methylpiperidine, or 4-dimethylaminopyridine.

[0161] The reaction typically occurs in a single solvent or a mixture of solvents, and is carried out over a temperature range of 0°C to 100°C for 1–24 hours. Suitable protic solvents include, for example, methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, tert-butanol, and water. Solvents suitable for forming mixtures include, for example, dichloromethane, trichloromethane, tetrahydrofuran, 1,4-dioxane, acetonitrile, and N,N-dimethylformamide.

The reaction mixture was stirred at 0–10 °C for 2 hours, and then hexane (30 mL) and brine (75 mL) were added. The resulting suspension was stirred at 15–25 °C for 30 minutes. The precipitated solid was removed by filtration and washed with hexane containing 10% ethyl acetate. The organic phase of the filtrate was separated, and the aqueous layer was further extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic extracts were washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was treated with hexane and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to provide 1-(aminooxy)cyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester 2 (5.02 g, 94%) as a yellow oil.

[0854] Bacterial isolates

[0855] Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacterial strains used during in vitro minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) assays were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) or clinical specimens, respectively. All strains were genotyped, and individual antibiotic resistance markers were identified for each strain. Table 2 below shows the strains used and their respective resistance markers.

[0856] Table 2. Bacterial strains used for in vitro MIC detection

[0857]

[0858]

[0859] MIC detection

[0860] The isolates were subcultured on appropriate media and stored in skim milk at -80°C. Following the two subcultures in frozen storage, in vitro antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) broth microdilution method. In short, fresh cultures were resuspended in media to provide 5 x 10⁻⁶ broth per mL. 7 The final stock inoculum was prepared at a concentration of 128 μg / mL. The test compound was prepared at a stock solution concentration equal to 128 μg / mL and then diluted to a final initial working concentration of 32 μg / mL. 100 μl of stock solution was added to the first well of a 96-well plate, followed by a 2-fold dilution to provide a range of 32–0.025 μg / mL. Then, 100 μl of bacterial suspension was added to the 96-well plate to provide 5 x 10⁻⁶ cells / well. 5The final working inoculum amount was CFU / mL. Final compound concentrations ranged from 16 to 0.0125 μg / mL. All compounds were tested in iron-free, cation-regulated Mueller-Hinton broth, and the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was read as the first well showing a significant decrease in growth compared to the growth control (inhibition zone <1 mm or insufficient turbidity). The MIC of the comparator reagents was determined using a custom-designed, in-house prepared 96-well broth microdilution plate.

[0861] Synergistic activity assay

[0862] The same method used to test the activity of the compound is used to determine its synergistic activity when bound to a β-lactamase inhibitor, but a fixed concentration or ratio of the β-lactamase inhibitor is added to the 96-well plate before the addition of bacterial culture. Synergistic activity is defined as the reduction in the MIC of a given compound when tested with a β-lactamase inhibitor compared to when the compound is tested in the absence of a β-lactamase inhibitor.

[0863] Test Results

[0864] As shown in Tables 3-6, the indicator compounds exhibited activity against Gram-negative bacteria, including resistant strains. The MICs of the indicator compounds against wild-type strains of *Acinetobacter baumannii*, *Citrobacter*, *Escherichia coli*, and *Pseudomonas aeruginosa* ranged from 0.03 to >16 μg / mL. These compounds also showed activity against resistant strains of *Citrobacter freundii*, *Enterobacter cloacae*, *Escherichia coli*, *Klebsiella pneumoniae*, *Klebsiella pneumoniae*, *Klebsiella pneumoniae*, and *Pseudomonas aeruginosa*. The MICs of these strains ranged from <0.015 to >16.0 μg / mL (Tables 3-6). The MICs of the selected compounds were enhanced using avibactam. Avibactam resulted in a 3-4 fold reduction in MICs in mice due to its inhibition of β-lactamases (Tables 7 and 8).
