Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to antibiotic compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing same and the use of these compounds and compositions for the treatment of bacterial infections. The present invention further relates to methods of making said compounds of the invention. [Background technology]

[0002] Background of the Invention Antibiotic resistance is rising to dangerously high levels in all regions of the world, threatening people's ability to effectively treat and prevent an ever-increasing variety of infectious diseases. Thus, there is a need for the development of new antibiotic compounds that can be active where existing antibiotics fail.

[0003] Although all types of bacteria (both Gram-negative and Gram-positive) are believed to develop some degree of antibiotic resistance, certain bacterial species, such as Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae), Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii), and Escherichia coli (E. coli), are more associated with antibiotic resistance than others. Thus, there may be a particular need for novel antibiotic compounds active against one or more of these bacterial species.

[0004] A recently developed new class of antibiotic compounds are FabI inhibitors. These compounds inhibit NADH-dependent enoyl reductase (FabI) ​​from the type II bacterial fatty acid biosynthetic pathway (FAS-II), thereby providing an alternative approach for treating bacterial infections when existing antibiotics fail. Advantageously, this FabI mechanism of action is not expected to exhibit cross-resistance to existing antibiotics. However, while known FabI inhibitor compounds can be highly effective against some bacterial species, they may be inactive or have poor activity against other species, such as Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), Escherichia coli (E. coli), A. baumannii (A. baumannii), and Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae), particularly the Gram-negative species E. coli, A. baumannii, and K. pneumoniae. This may be due to difficulties penetrating both the outer and inner membranes of these Gram-negative bacteria, a problem that may be further exacerbated by efflux. Thus, there remains a need for compounds and pharmaceutical compositions containing same that can exhibit antibacterial activity against one or more of Gram-positive and / or Gram-negative bacteria, particularly S. aureus, E. coli, K. pneumoniae, and A. baumannii, most particularly E. coli, K. pneumoniae, and A. baumannii (particularly when existing antibiotics fail). Furthermore, such compounds preferably do not result in cross-resistance to existing antibiotics, and it is desirable that such compounds result in a low / acceptable incidence of side effects. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] It is an object of the present invention to address one or more of these above-mentioned needs. Further objects and objectives underlying the present invention will become apparent from the following description of the invention. [Means for solving the problem]

[0039] definition The following definitions are provided to assist the reader. Unless otherwise specified, all technical terms, notations, and other scientific and medical terms or terminology used herein are intended to have the meanings commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the chemical and medical arts. Terms having commonly understood meanings may be defined herein for the purposes of clarification and / or ease of reference, but the inclusion of such definitions herein should not be construed as representing a substantive departure from the definition of the term as commonly understood in the art.

[0040] In some embodiments, the term "about" refers to a ±10% variation from the stated value. When the term "about" is used herein in reference to a number, it should be understood that yet other embodiments of the invention encompass that number unmodified by the term "about."

[0041] "Administering" a drug or "administration of" (and grammatical equivalents of this phrase) to a patient refers to direct administration, which can be administration or self-administration by a health care professional to the patient, and / or indirect administration, which can be the act of prescribing a drug. For example, a physician who instructs a patient in self-administration of a drug or provides a patient with a prescription for a drug is administering a drug to the patient.

[0042] The terms "dose" and "dosage" refer to a specific amount of an active or therapeutic agent to be administered. Such an amount is contained in a "dosage form." Dosage form refers to physically discrete units suitable as administration units for human subjects and other mammals, each unit containing a predetermined amount of an active agent, together with suitable excipients such as one or more carriers, calculated to produce the desired onset, tolerability, and therapeutic effect.

[0043] The terms "treatment" and "therapy" as used in this patent application refer to a range of hygienic, pharmacological, surgical and / or physical measures used with the aim of improving a health problem, with the intention of curing and / or ameliorating a disease and / or symptoms. Both terms "treatment" and "therapy" are directed to maintaining and / or restoring the health of individuals and animals, and therefore encompass preventative and curative methods. The administration of suitable medicines to improve and / or cure a health problem, regardless of the origin of its symptoms, diseases and disorders, should be considered a form of treatment or therapy in the context of this application.

[0044] The term "unit dosage form" as used herein refers to a physically discrete unit of therapeutic preparation suitable for the subject to be treated. However, it will be understood that the total daily usage amount of the composition of the present invention will be determined by the attending physician within the scope of reasonable medical judgment. The specific effective dose for any particular subject or organism will vary depending on various factors well known in the medical arts, such as the severity of the disorder to be treated and its treatment, the activity of the specific active agent employed; the specific composition employed; the age, weight, general health, sex, and diet of the subject; the administration time and excretion rate of the specific active agent employed; the duration of treatment; drugs and / or additional therapies used in combination with or simultaneously with the specific compound employed.

[0045] As used herein, the articles "a" and "an" refer to one or to more than one (i.e., to at least one) of the grammatical object of the article. By way of example, "an element" means one element or more than one element.

[0046] The word "comprising" is used to mean "including, but not limited to." "Include" and "including, but not limited to" are used interchangeably. The word "comprise" is used synonymously with "comprise." The word "consisting of" is used to indicate that the listed elements are present, but no other unstated elements are present. The word "comprising" is used to encompass the meaning of "consisting of" as a preferred embodiment.

[0047] The term "FabI" is art-recognized and refers to a bacterial enzyme that is believed to function as an enoyl (acyl transfer protein) (ACP) reductase in the final step of the four reactions involved in each cycle of bacterial fatty acid biosynthesis. This enzyme is believed to be widely distributed in bacteria and plants.

[0048] The term "enzyme inhibitor" refers to any compound that prevents an enzyme from effectively performing its respective biochemical role. Thus, a "FabI inhibitor" is any compound that prevents FabI from performing its biochemical role. The amount of enzyme inhibition by any compound of this type will vary, as described herein and elsewhere.

[0049] The term "antibiotic" or "antibacterial agent" is intended to mean any drug useful for treating, preventing, or otherwise reducing the severity of any bacterial disorder or its complications (including any condition, disease, or complication resulting therefrom and / or described herein). Antibiotic agents include, for example, cephalosporins, quinolones and fluoroquinolones, penicillins and beta-lactamase inhibitors, carbapenems, monobactams, macrolides and lincosamides, glycopeptides, rifampin, oxazolidinones, tetracyclines, aminoglycosides, streptogramins, sulfonamides, and other antibacterial agents. Other antibiotic or antibacterial agents are disclosed herein and will be known to those of skill in the art. In certain embodiments, the term "antibiotic agent" does not include agents that are FabI inhibitors; therefore, in certain instances, the combinations of the invention include one agent that is a FabI inhibitor and another agent that is not a FabI inhibitor.

[0050] The term "drug" as used herein refers to any substance that falls within the scope of at least one of the definitions set out in Article 1, paragraphs 2(a), 2(b) or 3a of the November 16, 2012 version of Directive 2001 / 83 / EC of November 6, 2001, or Article 1, paragraphs 2(a) or 2(b) of the August 7, 2009 version of Directive 2001 / 82 / EC of November 6, 2001, and Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No. 726 / 2004 of March 31, 2004.

[0051] As used herein, the term "disease" refers to any illness caused by or associated with infection by an organism.

[0052] As used herein, the term "bacterial illness" refers to any illness caused by or associated with infection with bacteria.

[0053] The term "cis" is art-recognized and refers to the orientation of two atoms or groups in relation to a double bond such that the atoms or groups are on the same side of the double bond. The cis configuration is also often designated as the (Z) configuration.

[0054] The term "trans" is art-recognized and refers to the orientation of two atoms or groups relative to a double bond such that the atoms or groups are on opposite sides of the double bond. The trans configuration is also often designated as the (E) configuration.

[0055] The term "therapeutic effect" is art-recognized and refers to a local or systemic effect in animals, particularly mammals, and more particularly humans, caused by a pharmacologically active substance. Thus, this term refers to any measurable effect in an animal or human related to the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease, or the improvement of a desired physical or mental development and / or condition. The phrase "therapeutically effective amount" refers to an amount of such a substance that produces some desired local or systemic effect at a reasonable risk-benefit ratio appropriate for any treatment. The therapeutically effective amount of such a substance will vary depending on the subject and disease state being treated, the subject's weight and age, the severity of the disease state, the mode of administration, etc., and can be readily determined by one of ordinary skill in the art. For example, certain compositions of the present invention can be administered in an amount sufficient to produce a therapeutic effect at a reasonable risk-benefit ratio appropriate for such treatment.

[0056] The term "chiral" is art-recognized and refers to a molecule that has the property of not being superimposable on its mirror image counterpart, while the term "achiral" refers to a molecule that is superimposable on its mirror image counterpart. A "prochiral molecule" is a molecule that has the potential to be converted into a chiral molecule by a specific process.

[0057] The compounds of the present disclosure may contain one or more asymmetric centers and / or double bonds and therefore may exist as geometric isomers, enantiomers, or diastereomers. Enantiomers and diastereomers may be represented by the symbols "(+)," "(-)," "R," or "S," depending on the placement of substituents relative to the asymmetric carbon atom, although one of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that a structure may implicitly represent one or more asymmetric centers. Mixtures of enantiomers or diastereomers may be represented by "(±)" in nomenclature, although one of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that a structure may implicitly represent a chiral center. Geometric isomers resulting from the placement of substituents relative to a carbon-carbon double bond or relative to a cycloalkyl or heterocyclic ring may also exist in the compounds of the present invention.

[0058] symbol [ka] represents a bond which may be a single bond, double bond or triple bond as described herein.

[0059] Substituents on a carbon-carbon double bond are designated as having the "Z" or "E" configuration, and the terms "Z" and "E" are used in accordance with IUPAC standards. Unless otherwise specified, structures depicting double bonds encompass both the "E" and "Z" isomers. Alternatively, substituents on a carbon-carbon double bond may be designated as "cis" or "trans," where "cis" refers to substituents on the same side of the double bond and "trans" refers to substituents on opposite sides of the double bond. The configuration of substituents on a carbocyclic ring may also be designated as "cis" or "trans," with "cis" referring to substituents on the same side relative to the plane of the ring and "trans" referring to substituents on opposite sides relative to the plane of the ring. Mixtures of both compounds in which the substituents are positioned on the same side and on opposite sides relative to the plane of the ring are designated "cis / trans" or "Z / E."

[0065] The term "microorganism" is art-recognized and refers to a small organism. In certain embodiments, the term microorganism applies to bacteria. In other embodiments, the term refers to pathogenic forms of small organisms.

[0066] The term "alkyl" as used herein refers to a saturated straight-chain or branched hydrocarbon, such as a straight-chain or branched group having 1 to 8 or 1 to 6 carbon atoms, referred to herein as C1-C8 alkyl or C1-C6 alkyl, respectively. The term "lower alkyl" as used herein specifically refers to a saturated straight-chain or branched hydrocarbon, such as a straight-chain or branched group having 1 to 4 or 1 to 3 carbon atoms, referred to herein as C1-C4 alkyl and C1-C3 alkyl, respectively.

It should be understood that the term "alkyl" encompasses unsubstituted as well as "substituted alkyls," i.e., optionally having one or more substituents at one or more positions. That is, it also refers to alkyl moieties having one or more (e.g., two, three, four, five, six, etc.) substituents each replacing a hydrogen on a carbon of the hydrocarbon backbone. Such substituents may include, for example, hydroxyl, carbonyl groups (where the carbonyl group has a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, or other group as defined in this paragraph, e.g., to form a carboxyl, alkoxycarbonyl, formyl, or acyl group), thiocarbonyl-containing groups (where the carbonyl group has a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, or other group as defined in this paragraph, e.g., to form a thioester, thioacetate, or thioformate), alkoxyl, phosphoryl, phosphonate, phosphinate, phosphate, amino, amido, amidine, imine, cyano, nitro, azido, sulfhydryl, alkylthio, sulfate, sulfonate, sulfamoyl, sulfonamido, sulfonyl, heterocyclyl, aralkyl, cycloalkyl, heterocyclic, or aromatic or heteroaromatic moiety.

For example, substituents of substituted alkyl can include amino, azido, imino, amido, phosphoryl (including phosphonate, phosphinate, and phosphate), sulfonyl (including sulfate, sulfonamide, sulfamoyl, and sulfonate), and silyl groups, as well as substituted and unsubstituted forms of ether, alkylthio, carbonyl (including ketone, aldehyde, carboxylate, and ester), nitrile, and isonitrile. For the avoidance of doubt, alkyl groups bearing other alkyl groups should be considered as single branched alkyl groups, not as alkyl groups bearing other alkyl groups.

Except for this difference, the definitions and characteristics of alkyl groups described above apply equally to alkenyl groups.

[0070] The term "alkynyl" is art-recognized and refers to groups equivalent to alkyl groups, as defined above, except that they contain one or more carbon-carbon triple bonds. Of course, the total number of triple bonds is limited by the number of carbon atoms in the alkynyl group, and to allow for at least one triple bond, the alkynyl group must have at least two carbon atoms.

Those aryl groups having heteroatoms in the ring structure may also be referred to as "heteroaryls" or "heteroaromatics." An aromatic ring can be unsubstituted or substituted at one or more positions on the ring with a substituent as described above, for example, halogen, azide, alkyl, aralkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl, hydroxyl, alkoxyl, amino, nitro, sulfhydryl, imino, amido, phosphonate, phosphinate, phosphate, carbonyl, carboxyl, silyl, ether, alkylthio, sulfonyl, sulfonamide, ketone, aldehyde, ester, heterocyclyl, aromatic or heteroaromatic moiety, -CF3, -CN, etc. The term "aryl" also encompasses polycyclic ring systems having two or more rings, where two adjacent rings (the rings are "fused rings") share two or more carbons, and where at least one ring is aromatic as defined above, but without particular restriction as to the additional fused ring(s), which may be, for example, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, cycloalkynyl, aryl, and / or heterocyclyl.

[0085] The term "prodrug" refers to a derivative of an active compound (drug) that is converted under conditions of use, such as within the body, to release the active drug. Prodrugs are often, but not necessarily, pharmacologically inactive until converted to the active drug.

[0086] It will be understood that "substituted" or "substituted with" includes the implicit proviso that such substitution is in accordance with the valences allowed for the substituted atom and substituent, and that the substitution results in a stable compound, e.g., a compound that does not spontaneously undergo transformation such as rearrangement, cyclization, elimination, or other reaction.

[0087] The term "substituted" is also intended to include all permissible substituents of organic compounds. In a broad aspect, permissible substituents include acyclic and cyclic, branched and unbranched, carbocyclic and heterocyclic, aromatic and nonaromatic substituents of organic compounds.

For purposes of this disclosure, heteroatoms such as nitrogen can have hydrogen substituents and / or any permissible substituent of organic compounds described herein that satisfies the valence of the heteroatom. In this context, the term "permissible substituents" refers to any substituent that can be attached to a core molecule without violating general principles of chemical bond formation, e.g., the maximum number of valence electrons of the atom in question, and without causing the compound to be so toxic that it is unacceptable to patients, even at the minimum dose required to achieve a therapeutic effect.

[0088] For purposes of this invention, chemical elements are identified according to the Periodic Table of the Elements in CAS format, found on the inside cover of the Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, 67th Ed., 1986-87.

If administration occurs before the onset of clinical signs of an unwanted condition (e.g., a disease or other unwanted condition in the host animal), the treatment is prophylactic, i.e., protects the host from developing the unwanted condition. Conversely, if administration occurs after the onset of an unwanted condition, the treatment is therapeutic (i.e., aimed at reducing, ameliorating, or maintaining an already occurring unwanted condition or its associated side effects).

[0092] A "patient," "subject," or "host" to be treated by a subject method can refer to either a human or a non-human animal. Non-human animals include companion animals (e.g., cats, dogs) and animals raised for consumption (e.g., food animals), such as cows, pigs, and chickens. Non-human animals are preferably mammals.

[0096] As used herein, the term "solvent" refers to a liquid chemical capable of dissolving a significant amount of a substance of interest (a "solute") other than itself, thereby producing a clear and homogeneous solution. The term "significant amount" refers to an amount of dissolved solute that is dependent on the intended use of the solution, such that the amount of dissolved solute is sufficient to permit its intended use. For example, if a compound of the present invention is intended to be administered in solution form by injection, the solvent must be capable of dissolving an amount of the compound that will allow for the administration of a therapeutic dose.

[0097] The terms "acid" and "base" are used to have their conventional meaning as proton donor and proton acceptor (i.e., Bronsted acid and base), respectively. A "strong base" is meant to be any base that has the basicity of t-BuOK in THF or stronger. A "weak acid" is meant to be any acid that has the acidity of 1 M H2SO4 or weaker.

[0098] Unless otherwise specified, all reactions described herein are carried out at a reaction temperature that yields the desired target compound and that provides a reasonable compromise between reaction rate and selectivity. Typical reaction temperatures for Pd-based coupling reactions and Fe-based cyclization reactions are 80°C to 90°C, while removal of protecting groups is usually accomplished at temperatures between 0°C and room temperature (25°C).

[0099] Unless otherwise specified, all statements in dependent claims in which variables are identical to those defined for compounds of formula I and specific embodiments thereof of formulae Ia and Ib should be understood to mean that the more specific meanings stated for these variables in other dependent claims are also possible and more preferred. The same applies to the explanation of the meanings of variables in the general description. It is particularly preferred to rely on a combination of meanings for different variables, with two, three or more, and ideally all, of these meanings being individually stated as preferred.

[0100] Unless otherwise specified, the term "protecting group" used herein refers to a group attached to a functional group to prevent the functional group from participating in a planned chemical reaction. The protecting group must be inert under the planned reaction conditions, but the protecting group must also be removable from the compound to prevent further transformations at other sites in the molecule. Suitable protecting groups for each functional group are described in "Greene's Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis," Peter GM Wuts, Theodora W. Greene, John Wiley & Sons, 20 December 2012.

[0101] Overview It has surprisingly been found that antibacterial activity against Gram-positive and / or Gram-negative bacteria, more particularly S. aureus, E. coli, K. pneumoniae, and / or A. baumannii, can be achieved using compounds of formula (I) described herein. It has surprisingly been found that compounds of the present invention can have low MICs with respect to Gram-positive and / or Gram-negative bacteria, more particularly S. aureus, E. coli, K. pneumoniae, and / or A. baumannii, indicating that compounds of formula (I) can not only be effective against these types of bacteria, but can also be effective at low doses, thereby minimizing side effects. Without wishing to be bound by theory, the inventors believe that the compounds of the present invention may overcome the mechanism of FabI inhibition associated with previous generation FabI inhibitor compounds and may be more potent and / or able to better penetrate the cytoplasm of such bacteria, or less likely to be effluxed from the bacteria, and / or more potent against Gram-negative bacteria such as A. baumannii, E. coli, and K. pneumoniae.

[0102] Compounds of the Invention The compounds of the present invention have the following general formula I [ka] where LHS represents the left side moiety, which is represented by LHSa and LHSb as shown below: [ka] wherein the asterisk ( * ) indicates the point of attachment of the molecule and is used in formulas Ia and Ib: [ka] The following two families of compounds are intended to be encompassed: 13 The meaning of is defined herein, for example, in the claims and in the Summary of the Invention. The compounds of the present invention may also be pharmaceutically acceptable prodrugs, salts and / or solvates of these compounds of formula (I).

[0103] Unless expressly specified otherwise, the present disclosure contemplates all such compounds, including cis- and trans-isomers, R- and S-enantiomers, diastereomers, (d)-isomers, (l)-isomers, racemic mixtures thereof, and mixtures thereof, within the scope of the present invention, provided that the carbon-carbon double bond between the pyridine ring and the amide group at the center of the molecule must be in the trans configuration as shown in the formula above. Additional asymmetric carbon atoms may be present in substituents such as alkyl groups. All such isomers, as well as mixtures thereof, are intended to be encompassed by the present invention.

[0104] For example, if a specific enantiomer of a compound disclosed herein is desired, it can be prepared by asymmetric synthesis or by derivatization with an asymmetric auxiliary, the resulting diastereomeric mixture separated, and the auxiliary cleaved to yield the pure desired enantiomer. Alternatively, if the molecule contains a basic functional group such as amino or an acidic functional group such as carboxyl, diastereomeric salts can be formed with an appropriate optically active acid or base, followed by resolution of the diastereomers so formed by fractional crystallization or chromatographic means known in the art, followed by recovery of the pure enantiomers.

[0105] Additionally, individual enantiomers and diastereomers of the compounds of the present invention can be prepared synthetically from commercially available starting materials containing an asymmetric or stereogenic center, or by preparing a racemic mixture followed by resolution methods well known to those skilled in the art. Examples of such resolution methods include (1) coupling the mixture of enantiomers to a chiral auxiliary, separating the resulting mixture of diastereomers by recrystallization or chromatography, and liberating the optically pure product from the auxiliary; (2) forming a salt with an optically active resolving agent; (3) directly separating the mixture of optical antipodes on a chiral liquid chromatography column; or (4) kinetic resolution using a stereoselective chemical or enzymatic reagent. Racemic mixtures can also be resolved into their constituent enantiomers by well-known methods, such as chiral-phase gas chromatography or crystallizing the compound in a chiral solvent. Stereoselective synthesis, chemical reactions, or enzymatic reactions in which a single reactant produces an unequal mixture of stereoisomers by generating new stereocenters or by transferring existing stereocenters, are well known in the art. Stereoselective synthesis encompasses both enantio- and diastereoselective transformations. See, for example, Carreira and Kvaerno, Classics in Stereoselective Synthesis, Wiley-VCH: Weinheim, 2009.

[0106] The present invention also encompasses isotopically labeled compounds of the present invention recited herein, which differ only in that one or more atoms have been replaced with an atom having an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number normally found in nature. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into the compounds of the present invention include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, fluorine, and chlorine, such as isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, fluorine, and chlorine, respectively. 2 H, 3 H, 13 C. 14 C. 15 N, 18 O. 17 O. 31 P, 32 P, 35 S, 18 F and 36 For example, the compounds of the present invention may have one or more H atoms replaced with deuterium.

[0107] Certain isotopically labeled compounds of the present disclosure (e.g., those labeled with 3H and 14C) are useful in compound and / or substrate tissue distribution studies. Tritiated (i.e., 3H) and carbon-14 (i.e., 14 C) isotopes are particularly preferred for their ease of preparation and detectability. 2 Substitution with higher mass isotopes, such as H, can confer certain therapeutic advantages due to their increased metabolic stability (e.g., longer in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements) and may therefore be preferred in some circumstances. Isotopically labeled compounds of the invention can generally be prepared by substituting isotopically labeled reagents for non-isotopically labeled reagents, for example, following procedures similar to those disclosed in the Examples herein.

[0108] Prodrug The prodrugs of the present invention contain at least one prodrug moiety, i.e., a moiety that is cleaved under physiological conditions to release an active species. Such prodrug moieties can be attached to the compounds of the present invention at any position exhibiting sufficient reactivity, e.g., R 13 may be a prodrug moiety, or when Y is N, there may be a prodrug moiety attached to Y.

[0109] Salts, solvates, polymorphs The compounds of the present invention can be used in free form or alternatively in the form of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt. Acid addition salts are particularly suitable.

To increase solubility and / or bioavailability, the compounds can be advantageously administered in the form of prodrugs or salts. Additional administration modes are also contemplated, for example, by implantation (e.g., as part of an implantable medical device) or inhalation.

[0200] Dosage The dosage of any disclosed compound or composition will vary depending on the condition, age, and weight of the patient, the nature and severity of the disorder to be treated or prevented, the route of administration, and the form of the subject composition. Any of the subject compositions can be administered in a single dose or in divided doses. The dosage of the present compositions can be easily determined by techniques known to those skilled in the art or following the teachings herein.

[0201] In certain embodiments, the dosage of the subject compound will generally be in the range of about 0.01 ng to about 10 g / kg body weight, particularly in the range of about 1 ng to about 0.1 g / kg body weight, and more particularly in the range of about 1 mg to about 0.1 g / kg body weight.

[0202] For any particular composition of the present disclosure, it may be necessary to determine any possible effects on the effective dose or amount of the composition and the timing of administration of the composition. This can be accomplished by conducting routine experiments on one or more groups of animals (preferably at least 2-5 animals per group), or, where appropriate, human trials. The effectiveness of any subject composition and therapeutic or prophylactic method can be evaluated by administering the composition, measuring one or more appropriate indicators, and comparing the values ​​of these indicators after treatment with the values ​​of the same indicators before treatment to assess the effect of administration.

[0203] The exact time and amount of administration of any particular subject composition that will provide the most effective treatment for a given patient will depend on the activity, pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of the subject composition, the physiological condition of the patient (age, sex, type and stage of disease, general physical condition, responsiveness to a given dosage and type of medication, etc.), the route of administration, etc. The guidance provided herein can be used to optimize treatment, and will require no more than routine experimentation consisting of subject monitoring and adjusting dosage and / or timing to determine, for example, the most appropriate time and / or amount for administration.

[0204] During treatment of a subject, the patient's health can be monitored by measuring one or more relevant indicators at predetermined times during the treatment period. Treatment (including composition, amount, time of administration, and formulation) can be optimized according to the results of such monitoring. Periodic reassessment can be performed by measuring the same parameters to determine the patient's improvement. Based on this reassessment, the amount of a subject composition administered and, optionally, the time of administration can also be adjusted.

[0205] Treatment may be initiated with smaller dosages which are less than the optimum dose of the compound, and the dosage may be increased by small increments until the optimum therapeutic effect is attained.

[0206] The use of the subject drug combinations can reduce the required dosage of any individual agent included in the composition because the onset and duration of effect of the different agents are complementary.

[0207] Toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of a subject composition can be determined using standard pharmaceutical procedures, for example, using cell cultures or experimental animals.

[0208] Data obtained from cell culture tests and animal experiments can be used to formulate a range of dosages for use in humans. The dosage of any subject composition is preferably in a range that produces blood concentrations that statistically significantly reduce infection in at least 50% of individuals, e.g., at least 60, 70, 80, 90, 95%, or 100%, while exhibiting little or no toxicity. Dosages can vary within this range depending on the dosage form employed and the route of administration utilized. For compositions of the present disclosure, a therapeutically effective dose can be initially estimated from cell culture tests.

[0209] Dosage frequency The compounds and compositions disclosed herein can be administered at any suitable frequency. The frequency can depend on the subject being treated and the severity and type of infection. Administration can be, for example, once or multiple times a day. The number of administrations can also depend on the form of the composition and the subject and condition being treated, such as bacterial infection.

[0210] Treatment duration The compounds and compositions disclosed herein can be administered indefinitely. Advantageously, they are administered until the bacterial infection is completely eradicated, or at least until the patient's immune system is able to deal with any remaining pathological bacteria. A typical administration period can be 3 days to 7 weeks, e.g., 1 to 5 weeks, e.g., 7 days to 2 weeks. However, longer treatment periods may be required for some infections, such as bone infections.

[0211] Treatment method The compounds and compositions disclosed herein can be used in methods of treatment. In particular, the compounds and compositions disclosed herein can be used in a method of treating a bacterial infection, comprising administering to a patient in need thereof a disclosed compound of the present invention or a pharmaceutical composition containing a disclosed compound of the present invention. The bacterial infection can be an infection caused by Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), Escherichia coli (E. coli), Klebsiella pneumoniae, and / or A. baumannii.

[0212] The compounds of the invention may also be used in the manufacture of a pharmaceutical composition for use in the treatment, particularly the treatment of bacterial infections in a patient in need thereof, wherein said bacterial infection may be caused by S. aureus, E. coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and / or A. baumannii.

[0213] Further embodiments relate to methods of treating a bacterial infection, such as a S. aureus, E. coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and / or A. baumannii bacterial infection, in a patient in need thereof, comprising administering a compound or composition of the present invention.

[0214] Preparation of the Compounds of the Invention The compounds of the present invention can be prepared using existing organic chemistry synthesis methods and procedures and / or information as described hereinafter. The starting materials can be purchased (where commercially available) or synthesized using existing organic chemistry synthesis methods and procedures and / or information as described hereinafter.

[0215] The compounds disclosed herein have the formula M1 or M1′ [ka] (wherein X represents a leaving group, R 13 is R 13 Ga-PO3R e2 or -CH2-OPO3R e2 as defined herein except where e is a Pg group such as TMSCH2CH2 or CNCH2CH2, and Pg in M1′ represents a protecting group such as a BOC group, where R 11 and R 12 is R 11 and R 12 or preferably such a defined group, which also includes a protecting group selected from the group consisting of Boc, PMB and DMB. optionally with a precursor compound of formula M2a or M2b: [ka] (In the formula, R0~R 12 , R 14, Y and Q1 have the same meanings as defined for formula I The leaving group X can be a hydroxyl group, tosylate group, triflate group, mesylate group, iodide, bromide, chloride, methoxy, ethoxy, etc.

[0216] The coupling reaction is preferably carried out in a solvent in the presence of a coupling agent and a base. The solvent is preferably selected from DMF, 2-Me-THF, DCM, EtOAc, DMC, and CPME (preferably, when the leaving group is a hydroxyl group, the solvent is DMF). The coupling agent is preferably selected from HATU, HBTU, HCTU, TBTU, COMU, TOMBU, COMBU, PyBOP, T3P, DIC-HOBt, DCC, CDI, EDC, and EDC-HOBt (preferably, when the leaving group is a hydroxyl group, the coupling agent is HATU or T3P). The reaction is usually carried out in the presence of a base. The base is preferably selected from DIPEA, TEA, pyridine, or DMAP (preferably, when T3P is used as the coupling agent, TEA is used as the base). The protecting group of M1' can preferably be removed immediately after the coupling reaction. Meanwhile, R 13 and / or R 11 and / or R 12 Any protecting groups in are preferably removed as a final step.

[0217] An example of the reaction sequence is shown in the following Scheme 1. A similar reaction scheme is applied for the protected precursor M1', which of course requires the addition of a previous protection reaction and a subsequent deprotection reaction.

[0218] [ka] A similar reaction scheme applies for the synthesis of compounds of formula Ib, where precursor compound M2a is simply replaced by precursor compound M2b.

[0219] Preparation of the precursor for the right side The precursor compound of formula M1' may be a compound of formula M3 or M3' [ka] (wherein Pg in M1′ is a suitable protecting group such as Boc, and R 13 is R 13 Ga-PO3R e2 or -CH2-OPO3R e2 as defined herein except where e is a Pg group such as TMSCH2CH2 or CNCH2CH2, and R 11 and / or R 12 In addition to being as defined herein, may also contain a protecting group, which is preferably selected from a Boc group, a PMB group, and a DMB group. The compound C of acrylic acid 1~4 The acrylic acid can be prepared by reacting it with a carboxyl-protected acrylic acid, such as an alkyl ester (preferably tert-butyl, ethyl, or methyl ester). This coupling reaction is carried out under Heck coupling conditions, preferably in the presence of a Pd(II) salt, such as Pd(OAc)2, and a phosphine ligand, such as xantphos, XPhos, or tri-(o-tolyl)phosphine or 1,1-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (dppf). The highly efficient palladium catalyst Pd-162 in the presence of Cy2NMe2 and NBu4Cl has also been applied. The reaction is usually carried out in the presence of a solvent such as DMF, propionitrile, a combination thereof, or 1,4-dioxane, and also in the presence of a base such as DIPEA. This reaction sequence is shown in Scheme 2 below.

[0220] [ka] The coupling reaction is followed by deprotection of the carboxyl group and the introduction of an optional leaving group other than hydroxyl. The leaving group X can be hydroxyl, tosylate, triflate, mesylate, iodide, bromide, chloride, etc. Pg represents a suitable protecting group for the carboxyl function to be protected, for example, an alkyl group (Me, Et, t-Bu) for the protection of the carboxyl group. The nitrogen atom in the amide group can optionally be protected by a suitable protecting group (Pg'), for example, a BOC group or an alternatively protected prodrug group, where the Pg'' group is a group such as TMSCH2CH2 or CNCH2CH2, where R 11 and R 12 is R 11 and R 12 or preferably such a defined group, which also includes a protecting group selected from the group consisting of a Boc group, a PMB group and a DMB group.

[0221] The precursor compound M3 can be synthesized as shown in Schemes 3 and 4 described below.

[0222] [ka] In Scheme 3, the reaction of a suitable acid (where R 11 and / or R 12 is as defined herein and may also preferably contain a protecting group selected from a Boc group, a PMB group, and a DMB group, and Rz=H), such as ((S)-3-amino-2-((tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)propanoic acid or ester (wherein Rz is C 1~4Condensation of 5-bromo-3-fluoro-2-nitropyridine with an alkyl, preferably methyl, such as methyl 3-amino-2-((2S,6R)-2,6-dimethylmorpholino)propanoate or (2S,3R)-methyl 3-amino-2-((tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)butanoate, affords the 3-(substituted amino)propanoate or butanoate in good yield. Reduction of the nitro group at the 2-position is carried out in the presence of a reducing agent such as Fe in acetic acid or a mixture of water, ethanol, and ammonium chloride at 80°C. Cyclization is achieved using sodium hydride in DMF (Path A). This reaction sequence is shown in Scheme 3. The protecting group Rz is removed by basic hydrolysis using lithium hydroxide in a mixture of water and THF. Cyclization (Route B) using an agent such as HATU in the presence of a base such as DIPEA and in a solvent such as DMF leads to the formation of the 3-amino-8-bromo-1,2,3,5-tetrahydro-4H-pyrido[2,3-b][1,4]diazepin-4-one derivative, as shown in Scheme 3.

[0223] Precursor compounds of formula M3 may also be prepared by reaction of compounds of formula M4. [ka] Compounds of formula M4 can be synthesized as described in AFFINIUM PHARMACEUTICALS, INC., WO 2007 / 67416, 2007, A2, which is incorporated herein by reference.

[0224] [ka] Direct iodination of 3-bromo-5,6,7,9-tetrahydro-8H-pyrido[2,3-b]azepin-8-one in the presence of TMEDA, TMSI, and I2 in DCM resulted in the formation of the expected iodide in good yield. The iodide was then oxidized with various amines (HNR2, HNR3, HNR4) in acetonitrile at 50–80 °C in the presence of K2CO3 as a base. 12 R11 (where R 12 and R 11 can be readily converted to the corresponding amines (primary, secondary, tertiary, and heterocyclic compounds) by their treatment with (as defined above for Formula I) (e.g., azetidin-3-ol, morpholine, pyrrolidine and its derivatives, cyclopropanoamine, piperazine and its derivatives, 7-oxa-2-azaspiro[3.5]nonane, thiomorpholine 1,1-dioxide, etc.). Alternatively, reaction of the iodide with sodium azide in DMF and its subsequent reduction provides the corresponding primary amines.

[0225] Preparation of the precursor for the left part The left-hand moiety precursors M2a and M2b can be prepared by the reaction sequence shown in the following Scheme 5 for M2a and the analogous reaction scheme for M2b. Reduction of the protected carboxyl group to a hydroxymethyl group can be achieved using diisobutylaluminum hydride (DIBAL-H) ​​in THF. Subsequent oxidation to the aldehyde can be carried out using Dess-Martin periodinane in DCM. The final reaction in this sequence can be carried out by first reacting with methylamine in ethanol / THF, followed by reduction with sodium borohydride in ethanol / THF. If it is desired to obtain the protected form of precursor M2a or M2b, the resulting product, i.e., the compound shown below except with a hydrogen atom at the Pg position, can be subjected to a final step of protection of the amino group with a suitable protecting group, e.g., a carboxybenzyl (Cbz) group, by reaction with carboxybenzyl chloride in DCM in the presence of triethylamine. This optional final protection step is also shown in Scheme 5 below. [ka]

[0226] Alternatively, the left-hand moiety precursors M2a or M2b can be prepared by the reaction sequence shown in Scheme 5', where a carboxylic acid (or its alkyl ester) is converted to its corresponding amide by amidation (e.g., MeNH2.HCl, DIPEA, EDCl-HOBt, DMF or MeNH2 / EtOH, by reflux), followed by amide reduction (e.g., with BMS in THF or trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride / NaBH4 in DCM) to give the corresponding amine. [ka]

[0227] Likewise, a similar reaction scheme applies to the preparation of precursor M2b. [ka]

[0228] Further alternatively (when Q1 is O), the left-hand moiety precursor M2a can be prepared by one of the reaction sequences shown in Scheme 5″, where: In Route A, base-catalyzed (e.g., using t-BuOK / THF) condensation of o-hydroxyphenone (i.e., the compound on the left side of Scheme 5″ where Q1 represents —OH) with 1,1-dichloroethylene in the presence of a strong base (e.g., in the presence of t-BuOK and THF), followed by further conversion under weakly acidic conditions (e.g., using 1 M H2SO4), gives intermediate carbaldehyde compounds, as shown in Scheme 5″, Route A below. These carbaldehydes can be easily converted to their corresponding amines, i.e., precursors M2a. This conversion can rely on standard methods, usually using reductive amination conditions (e.g., using 1. MeNH2 / THF; AcOH; 2. NaBH4); In Route B, compound X—CH—Y is reacted with the compound X—CH—Y in the presence of a base (e.g., KCO / DMF). 1 (wherein X is a leaving group as described above, and Y 1 is C 1~4Condensation of a substituted o-hydroxyphenone with a protected carboxyl or nitrile group, such as an alkyl ester (e.g., a carboxyl group precursor such as chloroacetonitrile), can result in the formation of a nitrile intermediate, e.g., a 2-nitrile benzofuran, followed by basic hydrolysis to yield the corresponding carboxylic acid, as shown in the center of Scheme 5″, Pathway B. The carboxylic acid can be converted to the corresponding amine. For example, using the same procedure, amines can also be prepared from o-hydroxyphenones and alkyl 2-bromoacetates (e.g., in the presence of K2CO3 and acetone in the first step, followed by cyclization and basic hydrolysis with NaOEt / EtOH). [ka]

[0229] Further alternatively (when Q is O), the left-hand moiety precursor M can be prepared by one of the reaction sequences shown in Scheme 5''', where the carboxyphenol is displaced with ethyl 2-bromopropanoate in the presence of a base such as KCO or NaOH in a solvent such as ACN or THF, followed by decarboxylative cyclization mediated by a base such as sodium acetate in acetic anhydride to give the benzofuran bicyclic ring, where the carbonyl moiety is introduced at the 3-position using dichloro(methoxy)methane in the presence of a Lewis acid catalyst such as tin(IV) chloride. [ka]

[0230] In Schemes 5, 5', 5" and 5'", Pg represents a protecting group such as a carboxybenzyl group (BOC group, PMB group, DMB group). Q1 has the same meaning as Q1 in Formula I (except for the restrictions on Q1 described for Scheme 5" above). R 1 ~R 4 (R 3a , R 3b and R 3c) may also have the same meaning as in Formula I. Alternatively, one or more of these groups may be precursor groups that are subsequently converted to the desired substituent according to Formula I. For example, a Br substituent may be used as such a precursor.

[0231] R 14 If different from CH3 (R 14 LHS a or LHS b Together with R0, R 14 is attached to form a heterocycle having 5 to 8 ring members, preferably the only heteroatom in the ring is R 14 is the N to which is attached), precursor M2a can be prepared by the reaction sequence shown in Scheme 5″″, where the lactam precursor is dihalogenated, converted to a piperidylene amine, then reacted with 1,4-benzoquinone and deaminated to give a tricyclic benzofuran intermediate, which can be further modified at the R2 position by conventional chemistry. [ka]

[0232] R 14 If different from CH3 (R 14 LHS a or LHS b Together with R0, R 14 is attached to form a heterocycle having 5 to 8 ring members, preferably the only heteroatom in the ring is R 14 is the N to which is attached), precursor M2b can be prepared by the reaction sequence shown in Scheme 5′′″, in which an amino(thio)phenol precursor is condensed with a cyclic 1,3-dione, converted to an oxime, and then subjected to a Beckmann rearrangement to reduce the amide to an amine. [ka]

[0233] Alternative Routes for the Preparation of Compounds of the Invention As an alternative to the above synthetic approach, compounds of the invention can be prepared from compounds of formula M6 or their protected form M6' [ka] to the formula M7a or M7b: [ka] (wherein Y and Q1 have the same meaning as defined for formula (I), and all R groups (R0 to R 14 ) has the same meaning as defined for formula I or can be a precursor thereof, e.g., Br as a precursor for other groups, e.g., CN, OH, esters, etc., or R 11 and / or R 12 is as defined herein and may also include a protecting group, preferably selected from a Boc group, a PMB group, and a DMB group. The compound of formula Ia can also be prepared by coupling with a compound of formula Ib, which can be carried out under Heck coupling conditions. Typically, this is carried out in the presence of a Pd(II) complex such as Pd-162 (i.e., [P(tBu)3]Pd(crotyl)Cl), tetrabutylammonium chloride, N-cyclohexyl-N-methylcyclohexanamine (DIPEA), and dioxane. It is also possible to use a Pd(II) salt such as Pd(OAc)2 in combination with a phosphine ligand, e.g., tri-o-tolylphosphine, a base such as DIPEA, and a solvent such as a mixture of DMF and propionitrile or 1,4-dioxane. The reaction is illustrated for a compound of formula Ia by the following reaction scheme: [ka]

[0234] Likewise, a similar reaction scheme applies to the preparation of compounds of formula Ib. [ka]

[0235] It is advantageous to use a protected precursor M6' in this reaction sequence, in which case the reaction sequence shown in the scheme above is followed by a deprotection step to give the reaction product shown above.

[0236] Y and Q1 have the same meaning as defined for Formula I, and R0 to R 12 has the same meaning as defined for formula (I) or can be a precursor thereof, e.g. Br as a precursor for other groups, e.g. CN, OH, esters, etc., or R 11 and / or R 12 is as defined herein and may also include a protecting group, preferably selected from a Boc group, a PMB group, and a DMB group, while R 13 is hydrogen.

The prodrug moiety is preferably a methylene phosphate moiety or a phosphoramidate moiety. Suitable reaction conditions for preparing such prodrug moieties and methylene phosphate prodrugs are described in WO 2013 / 190384 A1 (methylene phosphate) and J. Med. Chem. 2000, 43, 1234-1241 (phosphoramidates).

[0240] Example The following examples are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention in any way, but are provided solely for the purpose of illustrating the compounds of the present invention and their preparation.

[0241] General Procedure All starting materials and solvents were obtained from commercial sources or prepared according to the literature. All reactions were stirred unless otherwise specified. Organic solutions were routinely dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate or sodium sulfate.

[0242] Column chromatography was performed on prepacked silica (230-400 mesh, 40-63 μm) cartridges using the indicated eluents. SCX was purchased from Silicycle and treated with 1 M hydrochloric acid before use. Unless otherwise specified, the reaction mixture to be purified was first diluted with MeOH and acidified with a few drops of AcOH. This solution was directly loaded onto the SCX and washed with MeOH. The desired material was then eluted by washing with 0.7 M NH3 in MeOH.

[0243] Analysis method LCMS analysis was carried out using either the acidic or basic method as follows.

[0244] Method 1a: A Waters X-Select CSH C18, 2.5 μm, 4.6 × 30 mm column was used for gradient elution with MeCN (containing 0.1% formic acid) in water (containing 0.1% formic acid). The gradient conditions were 5% to 95% MeCN (containing 0.1% formic acid) over 0.00–3.00 min at a flow rate of 2.5 mL / min, followed by a 4.5 mL / min flush from 3.01–3.5 min. The column was re-equilibrated with 5% MeCN at 2.5 mL / min from 3.60–4.00 min. UV spectra of the eluted peaks were measured at 254 nm using an Agilent 1260 Infinity or Agilent 1200 VWD. Mass spectra were measured using an Agilent 6120 or Agilent 1956 MSD operated in positive / negative switching, or an Agilent 6100 MSD operated in either positive or negative ion mode.

The gradient conditions were 5% to 95% MeCN over 0.00–3.00 min at a flow rate of 2.5 mL / min, followed by a 4.5 mL / min flush from 3.01–3.5 min. The column was re-equilibrated with 5% MeCN at 2.5 mL / min from 3.60–4.00 min. UV spectra of the eluted peaks were measured at 254 nm using an Agilent 1260 Infinity or Agilent 1200 VWD. Mass spectra were measured using an Agilent 6120 or Agilent 1956 MSD, operating in positive / negative mode, or an Agilent 6100 MSD, operating in either positive or negative ion mode.

[0246] UPLC / MS analysis Alternatively, UPLC / MS analysis was performed using either the acidic or basic method as follows.

[0247] Method 2a: A Waters Acquity CSH C18, 1.7 μm, 2.1 x 30 mm column was used with a gradient elution of MeCN (containing 0.1% formic acid) in water (containing 0.1% formic acid). The gradient consisted of a starting point of 5% MeCN with a hold time of 0.0-0.11 min. The gradient conditions were 5-95% over 0.11-2.15 min, followed by a flush from 2.15-2.56 min. The column was re-equilibrated with 5% MeCN over 2.56-2.83 min. UV spectra of the eluting peaks were recorded using an Acquity PDA, and mass spectra were recorded using an Acquity QDa detector with ESI positive / negative ionization.
