BETA-LACTAMASE INHIBITORS AND THEIR PREPARATIONField of the Invention
[0001] This invention relates to novel beta-lactamase inhibitors, their preparation and their use as antibacterial agents in combination with an antibiotic (or plural antibiotics) for the treatment of infections caused by β-lactamase-producing pathogenic bacteria. More particularly, the invention relates to compositions and methods for overcoming bacterial antibiotic resistance.Background of the Invention
[0002] Microbial drug resistance to β-lactam antibiotics, especially in Gram-negative bacterial, is most commonly mediated by β-lactamases. β-lactamases are enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of the β-lactam ring, which inactivate the antibacterial activity of the β-lactam antibiotics and allow the bacterial to become resistant. Inhibition of the β-lactamase with a β-lactamases inhibitor slows or prevents degradation of the β-lactam antibiotic and restores β-lactam antibiotic susceptibility to β-lactamase producing bacteria. Many of these β-lactamases are not effectively inhibited by β-lactamase inhibitors currently on the market rendering the β-lactam antibiotics ineffective in treating bacteria that producing these β-lactamases. There is an urgent need for novel β-lactamase inhibitors that inhibit β-lactamases that are not effectively inhibited by the current clinical β-lactamases (e.g. KPC, class C and class D β-lactamases) and that could be used in combination with β-lactam antibiotics to treat infection caused by β-lactam resistant bacteria.
[0003] Recently, certain diazabicyclic compounds have been disclosed in WO 2009 / 091856. In addition, a number of diazabicyclic heterocycles have been disclosed in the following patents or applications as β-lactamase inhibitors: US 2016 / 0297817 A1, US2016 / 0002235 A1, WO 2017037607 A1, WO 2018053057 A2, WO 2018053215 A1, WO2022 / 047790 A1, WO2022 / 047603 A1, WO2022 / 233181 A1. Among of these β-lactamase inhibitors, the avibactam and relebactam were approved by the FDA.Detailed Description of the Invention

[0027] Another aspect of the present invention is to include all possible isomers of formula (I) . As used herein, the term ‘isomers’ refers to different compounds that have the same molecular formula but differ in arrangement and configuration of the atoms, such as geometrical isomers and optical isomers. For a given compound of the present invention, it is understood that a substituent may be attached at a chiral center of a carbon atom. Therefore, the invention includes enantiomers, diastereomers or racemates of the compound. By definition, ‘enantiomers’ are a pair of stereoisomers that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other, and 1: 1 mixture of a pair of enantiomers is a racemic mixture. By definition, ‘diastereoisomers’ are stereoisomers that have at least two asymmetric carbon atoms, but which are not mirror-images of each other. When a compound of formula (I) is a pure enantiomer the stereochemistry at each chiral carbon may be specified by either R or S.
[0028] Compounds may also exist in several tautomeric forms including the enol form, the keto form, and mixtures of any of the foregoing. Accordingly, the chemical structures depicted herein encompass all possible tautomeric forms of the illustrated compounds.
[0029] A variety of protecting groups conventionally used in the β-lactam field to protect a reactive functional group present in the compound of formula (I) can be used. ‘Protecting group’ refers to a group of atoms that when attached to a reactive functional group in a molecule masks, reduces or prevents reactivity of the functional group. Examples of protecting groups can be found in “Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis” , (Theodora W. Greene and Peter G.M. Wuts, John Wiley &Sons. Inc., 3rd, 1999) . Representative amino protecting groups include, but are not limited to formyl, acetyl, trifluoroacetyl, benzyl, benzyloxycarbonyl (CBZ) , tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) , trimethylsilyl (TMS) , 9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (FMOC) , nitro-veratryoxycarbonyl (NVOC) , and the like.

[0072] It is also an object of this invention to provide a combination of a compound of general formula (I) having antibacterial activity with another existing antibacterial agent, thus causing synergistic effect and the use of the same as drugs for the treatment of bacterial infections.
[0073] It is another object of the invention to provide methods for preparing the compounds of the invention of formula (I) .
[0074] It is a further object of the invention to provide pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound of formula (I) of this invention as an active ingredient in combination with an antibiotic (e.g., a β-lactam antibiotic or some other non β-lactam antibiotic) and a suitable amount of pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent, so as to provide a form for proper administration to a patient. These compositions can be administered by parenteral, in particular intramascular route, oral, sublingual, rectal, aerosol or by local route in a topical application on the skin and the mucous membranes. Suitable pharmaceutical vehicles include excipients such as starch, glucose, lactose, sucrose, gelatin, gum arabic, malt, rice, flour, chalk, silica gel, sodium stearate, glycerol monostearate, talc, sodium chloride, dried skim milk, glycerol, propylene, glycol, water, ethanol, and the like. Other examples of suitable pharmaceutical vehicles have been described in the art (Remington’s Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 21st Edition, 2006) . Compositions of the present disclosure, if desired, can also contain minor amounts of wetting, dispersing or emulsifying agents, or pH buffering agents, and preservatives. In addition, auxiliary, stabilizing, thickening, lubricating, and coloring agents can be included. Pharmaceutical compositions can be formulated in a conventional manner. Proper formulation is dependent upon the route of administration chosen. The present pharmaceutical compositions can take the form of injectable preparations, suspensions, emulsions, sugar-coated tablets, pellets, gelatin-capsules, capsules containing liquids, powders, granules, sustained-release formulations, suppositories, aerosols, sprays, ointments, creams or any other form suitable for use.

[0076] In another aspect, the present invention also provides for the use, in the manufacture of a medicament, of a compound within formula (I) above as an active ingredient.
[0077] In another aspect, the present invention also provides for the use, in the manufacture of a medicament, of a compound within formula (I) above as an active ingredient, along with one or more β-lactam antibiotics (e.g., a β-lactam antibiotic or some other non β-lactam antibiotic) , in an antibacterial composition in admixture with a carrier.
[0078] In another aspect, the present invention also provides for the use, in the manufacture of a medicament, of a compound within formula (I) above as an active ingredient, along with one or more β-lactam antibiotics (e.g., a β-lactam antibiotic or some other non β-lactam antibiotic) .
[0079] For the parenteral administration which includes intramuscular, intraperitonial, subcutaneous and intravenous use, sterile solutions of the active ingredient are usually prepared, and the pH of the solutions are suitably adjusted and buffered. For intravenous use, the total concentration of solutes should be controlled to render the preparation isotonic. Suitable solvents include saline solution (e.g., 0.9%NaCl solution) and apyrogenic sterile water. Pharmaceutical compositions for oral delivery can be, for example, in the form of tablets, lozenges, aqueous or oily suspensions, granules, powders, emulsions, capsules, syrups, or elixirs. Orally administered compositions can contain one or more optional agents, for example, sweetening agents such as fructose, aspartame, or saccharin, flavoring agents such as peppermint, oil of wintergreen, cherry, coloring agents, and preserving agents to provide a pharmaceutically palatable preparation. Moreover, when in tablet form, the compositions can be coated to delay disintegration and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract, thereby providing a sustained action over an extended period of time. Oral compositions can include standard vehicles such as mannitol, lactose, starch, magnesium stearate, sodium saccharin, cellulose, magnesium carbonate, and the like. For oral liquid preparations, for example, suspensions, elixirs, and solutions, suitable carriers, excipients, or diluents include water, saline, alkyleneglycols (e.g. propylene glycol) , polyalkylene glycols (e.g., polyethylene glycol) , oils, alcohols, slightly acidic buffers ranging from about pH 4 to about pH 6 (e.g., acetate, citrate, ascorbate ranging from about 5 mM to about 50 mM) , and the like. Additionally, flavoring agents, preservatives, coloring agents, bile salts, acylcarnitines, and the like can be added.
[0080] For topical formulations of compounds of the present invention, creams, gels, ointments or viscous lotions can be used as appropriate delivery forms. Topical delivery systems also include transdermal patches containing at least one compound of formula (I) to be administered.
[0081] Delivery through the skin can be achieved by diffusion or by more active energy sources such as iontophoresis or electrotransport. Formulations of a compound of the present invention, for topical use, such as in creams, ointments, and gels, can include an oleaginous or water-soluble ointment base, for example, topical compositions can include vegetable oils, animal fats, and in certain embodiments, semisolid hydrocarbons obtained from petroleum. Topical compositions can further include white ointment, yellow ointment, cetyl esters wax, oleic acid, olive oil, paraffin, petrolatum, white petrolatum, spermaceti, starch glycerite, white wax, yellow wax, lanolin, and glyceryl monostearate. Various water-soluble ointment bases can also be used, including glycol ethers and derivatives, polyethylene glycols, polyoxyl 40 stearate, and polysorbates.
[0082] In a pharmaceutical composition containing a compound of this invention, the weight ratio of active ingredient to carrier will normally be in the range of 1: 30 to 30: 1, for example, 1: 25 to 25: 1, 1: 20 to 20: 1, 1: 15 to 15: 1, 1: 10 to 10: 1, 1: 5 to 5: 1, 1: 4 to 4: 1, 1: 3 to 3: 1, 1: 2 to 2: 1, or 1: 1. The administered daily dose varies according to the illness treated, and the administration route. However, in most instances, an effective dose (e.g., in some instances, β-lactamase inhibiting dose) of a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof will be a daily dose in the range from about 1 to about 500 mg per kilogram of body weight orally, and from about 1 to about 500 mg per kilogram of body weight parenterally. The weight ratio of the compound of present invention to the antibiotic (if it is being administered with an antibiotic) will normally be in the range from 1: 30 to 30: 1, for example, 1: 25 to 25: 1, 1: 15 to 15: 1, 1: 10 to 10: 1, 1: 9 to 9: 1, 1: 8 to 8: 1, 1: 7 to 7: 1, 1: 6 to 6: 1, 1: 5 to 5: 1, 1: 4 to 4: 1, 1: 3 to 3: 1, 1: 2 to 2: 1, or 1: 1.
[0083] In some aspects of the present invention, an additional object is to provide an improved method for the treatment of bacterial infections caused by β-lactamase producing bacteria in a patient in need of such treatment comprising administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of at least one compound chosen from formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in combination with a known β-lactam antibiotic. In such an aspect of the present invention, the compounds increase the antibacterial effectiveness of β-lactamase susceptible β-lactam antibiotics, that is, they increase the effectiveness of the antibiotic against infections caused by β-lactamase producing microorganisms in mammalian subjects, particularly in humans. In these aspects of the present invention, this makes the compounds of formula (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, valuable for co-administration with β-lactam antibiotics. In the treatment of a bacterial infection in such an aspect of the present invention, said compounds of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically salt thereof can be mixed with the β-lactam antibiotic, and the two agents thereby administered simultaneously. When co-administered with a β-lactam antibiotic in such an aspect of the present invention, the combination of the compound of the invention and the antibiotic can provide a synergistic effect. The term ‘synergystic effect’ refers to the effect produced when two or more agents are co-administered is greater than the effect produced when the agents are administered individually. Alternatively, the compound of formula (I) or a salt thereof can be administered as a separate agent during a course of treatment with the antibiotic.
[0084] ‘Therapeutically effective amount’ refers to the amount of a compound that, when administered to a subject for treating a disease, or at least one of the clinical symptoms of a disease, is sufficient to affect such treatment of the disease, disorder, or symptom. The therapeutically effective amount can vary depending, for example, on the compound, the disease, disorder, and / or symptoms of the disease, severity of the disease, disorder, and / or symptoms of the disease, the age, weight, and / or health of the patient to be treated, and the judgement of the prescribing physician.
[0085] The term ‘β-lactam antibiotic’ refers to a compound with antibiotic property that contains a β-lactam functionality. Examples of β-lactam antibiotics which can be used in combination with the compounds of the present invention represented by formula (I) are commonly marketed penicillins, cephalosporins, penems, carbapenems and monobactams.

From the carbapenem class of β-lactam antibiotics such as imipenem, meropenem, panipenem, biapenem, doripenem, ertapenem and the like could be used. From monobactam class of β-lactam antibiotics such as aztreonam, carumonam, tigemonam, and the like could be used as the combination partner of antibiotic.
[0087] Examples of antibiotics (which are not β-lactam antibiotics) which can be used in combination with the compounds of the present invention (i.e., compounds of formula (I) above, salts, thereof, solvates of such compounds and salts, and deuterated compounds of any such compounds) include aminoglycosides, quinolones, tetracyclines, glycylcyclines, glycopeptides, lipopeptides, macrolides, ketoliddes, lincosamides, streptogramin, oxazolidinones, polymyxins, and other compounds known to have antibacterial properties.
[0088] ‘Pharmaceutically acceptable solvate’ refers to a molecular complex of a compound with one or more solvent molecules in a stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric amount. Such solvent molecules are those commonly used in the pharmaceutical art, which are known to be innocuous to recipient, e.g., water, ethanol, and the like. A molecular complex of a compound or moiety of a compound and a solvent can be stabilized by non-covalent intra-molecular forces such as, for example, electrostatic forces, Van der Waals forces or hydrogen bonds. The term hydrate refers to a complex where one or more solvent molecules are water.
[0089] The present invention also relates to methods for the preparation of compounds of formula (I) including formula (Ia) and formula (Ib) .
[0090] The compounds of the present invention of formula (Ia) can be readily prepared by the following reaction Scheme 1 and examples using readily available starting materials, reagents and conventional synthesis procedures known to those of ordinary skill in this art.
[0091] Scheme 1
[0092] The bicyclic intermediate amide (IIa) may be prepared following the literature (Org. Process Res. Dev. 2016, 20, 1799-1805) .
[0093] Compounds of the general of formula (Ia) can be prepared by converting bicyclic amide (IIa) to the nitrile (IIIa) in presence of a suitable reagents. The suitable reagents used for carrying out this step include, but are not limited to, trifluoroacetic anhydride (TFAA) and triethylamine (TEA) or diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA) , phosphoryl chloride (POCl3) and TEA, and the like. The organic solvents useful in the reaction are not particularly limited and include any of those which do not adversely affect the reaction. Typical solvents include dichlomethane, chloroform, tetrahydrofuran and the like. The reaction is normally carried out at a temperature of from about 0 ℃ to 40 ℃, and preferably at room temperature under nitrogen. After completion of the reaction the desired product can be easily separated by conventional methods such as column chromatography, crystallization or similar methods.
[0094] The intermediate amine (IVa) can be prepared by substituting an ammonium (NH3, or an appropriately ammonium salt form) to the nitrile (IIIa) in presence of a suitable reagent. An appropriately ammonium salt such as ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) , ammonium bromide (NH4Br) , ammonium sulfate (NH4SO4) may be included. The suitable reagents useful for carrying out this step include, but are not limited to, trimethylaluminum, or triethylaluminum, or trifluoromethanesulfonate, or Lanthanum and the like. The organic solvents useful in the reaction are not particularly limited and include any of those which do not adversely affect the reaction. Typical solvents include dichloromethane, chloroform, toluene, dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran, dimethylsulfoxide, and the like. The reaction is normally carried out at a temperature of from about 0 ℃ to about 100 ℃. After completion of the reaction, the desired product can be easily separated by conventional methods such as column chromatography, crystallization or similar methods.
[0095] The intermediate amide (Va) may be prepared by coupling the amine (IVa) with an appropriate acid (R1-CO2H) in presence of a suitable reagent. The suitable coupling reagents useful for carrying out this step include, but are not limited to, N, N-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) , 1- [bis (dimethylamino) methylene] -1H-1, 2, 3-triazolo [4, 5-b] pyridinium 3-oxo hexafluorophosphate (HATU) and base such as trimethylamine, triethylamine, N-methyl morpholine, or 2-chloro-4, 6-dimethoxy-1, 3, 5-triazine (CDMT) and base such as N-methyl morpholine and the like. The organic solvents useful in the reaction are not particularly limited and include any of those which do not adversely affect the reaction. Typical solvents include dichloromethane, chloroform, dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran, dimethylsulfoxide, and the like. The reaction is normally carried out at a temperature of from about 0 ℃ to about 100 ℃. After completion of the reaction the desired product can be easily separated by conventional methods such as column chromatography, crystallization or similar methods.
[0096] In the following step, the intermediate amide (Va) could be converted to the hydroxy compound (VIa) under an atmosphere of hydrogen or hydrogen mixed with an inert diluent such as nitrogen or argon in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst. The catalysts used in this hydrogenation reaction are the type of agents known in the art for this kind of deprotection and typical examples are the noble metals, such as nickel, palladium, platinum and rhodium. Examples of the catalysts are platinum, platinum oxide, palladium, palladium oxide and the like. The catalyst is usually present in the amount from about 1 to about 50 weight percent and preferably from about 5 to about 15 weight percent based on the compound (Va) . It is often convenient to suspend the catalyst on an inert support. A particularly convenient catalyst is palladium suspended on an inert support such as carbon, e.g., 5%or 10 %by weight palladium on carbon. This reaction may be conveniently affected at ambient temperature from 1.03 x 105 Pa to 4.14 x 105 Pa (15 psi to 60 psi) until reaction is complete (2 to 72 hours) . Suitable solvents for this reaction are those which substantially dissolve the starting material of the formula (Va) after reaction, are sufficiently volatile to be removed by evaporation, and do not themselves suffer hydrogenation.

[0383] Pharmacological Methods
[0384] Antibacterial activity and synergistic activity:
[0385] Compounds of the present invention alone, avibactam (AVI) alone, relebactam (REL) alone, meropenem (MER) alone, imipenem (IMI) alone, and as a combination of compounds of the present invention, or avibactam or relebactam with test antibiotic (meropenem or imipenem) were tested for antimicrobial activity by determing minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC, mg / L) using the broth microdilution method according to the guidelines of the Clinical Laboratories and Stansards Insitute ( “Methods for Dilution Antimicrobial Suscetibility Tests for Bacterial that Grow Aerobiclly” , Approved standard, 7th ed., Clinical and Laboratories Stanards Institute (CLSI) Document M7-A8, Wayne, Pa., USA, 2009) . Meropenem or imipenem as a test antibiotic compound was dissolved in DMSO, and then diluted in microbial growth medium (Mueller-Hinton Broth II, cation adjusted) resulting in a final concention range of 0.031-64 mg / L in serial two-fold dilution. In all cases the filnal DMSO concentraion was less than 0.5%. Bacteria were added to 96-well microtitre plates containing the serial two-fold dilutions of the compoumds; the final cell density was appoximately 5x105 colony forming units / mL (CFU / mL) . Plates were incubated at 37 ℃ for 18-24 hours and read visually. The MIC, i.e. the lowest concentration of the test compound that inhibited visible growth of the bacteria, was recorded. The same assay conditions were used when the compounds of present invention alone, avibactam or relebactam alone (as a control) , and as a combination of the present invention each compound, or avibactam or relebactam with test meropenem or imipenem antibiotic compound were tested for minmum inhibitory concentration (MIC, mg / L) . While test meropenem or imipenem was serially diluted as described above, a constant concentration of avibactam, or relebactam or the present invention each compound of 4 mg / L was used.
[0386] The antimicrobial activity by determing minmum inhibitory concentration (MIC, mg / L) against bacteria listed in table 3, table 4 and table 5.
[0387] Bacterial strains that were used to evaluate the antimicrobial activity using the MIC determination included but were not limited to E. coli clinical isolate (strain 1, TEM-1) , E. coli 8740 (strain 2, CTX-M15) , K. pneumoniae clinical isolate (strain 3, SHV-1) , K. pneumoniae 700625 (strain 4, KPC-3, TEM-1) , E. cloacae clinical isolate (strain 5, P99) , E. cloacae 700388 (strain 6, AmpC) , A. baumannii clinical isolate (strain 7, OXA-23, OXA-40) , A. baumannii 19616 (strain 8, OXA-24) , P. aeruginosa clinical isolate (strain 9, KPC-2) , P. aeruginosa 9127 (strain 10, AmpC) .

[0398] Table 5-continued: Synergy of the inhibitor example 53 to 76 (4 mg / L) in combination with imipenem (Ex. 71 to Ex. 76, MIC, mg / L)
[0399] All MIC from example 1 to example 76 alone, avibactam alone and relebactam alone against on ten test strains were more than 64 mg / L, which indicate present invention examples themselves showing almost no antimicrobial activity, which is very good sign for the present invention, because a desired inhibitor alone should show no antimicrobial activity. A desired inhibitor in combination with a antibiotic should show good synegenic antimicrobial activity, which was shown in table 3, table 4 and table 5 above.
[0400] Test for lactamase Inhibitory activity:
[0401] The inhibitory activities of present compounds against various enzymes are measured by spectrophotometric assay using 490 nM and using nitrocefin as a substrate [J. Antimicrob. Chemother., 28, pp 775-776 (1991) ] . The concentration of inhibitor (IC50) which inhibits by 50%the reaction of hydrolysis of nitrocefin by the enzyme is determined.
[0402] In light of the data described herein, persons of skill in the art would expect that all of the compounds within the scope of formula (I) , salts of such compounds, solvates of such compounds, and salts thereof, and deuterated compounds of all such compounds, salts and solvates (i.e., compounds of formula (I) modified in that they have been deuterated, salts of compounds of formula (I) modified in that they have been deuterated, and solvates of compounds of formula (I) modified in that they have been deuterated) would be effective on their own as antibacterial compounds, and in combination with β-lactam antibiotics.
[0403] Efficacy of the β-lactamase inhibitors can be evaluated in combination with ceftazidime aztreonam, meropenem, imipenem and other class of carbapenems and cephalosporins in murine infection models such as septicemia, pneumonia and thigh infection models (Ref: Andrea Endimiani et. al.Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, January 2011, page 82-85) . For murine acute lethal septicemia model, mice were infected by the intraperitoneal injection of the clinical strains resulting in death of the untreated controls within 24-48 hours. In particular, a fresh predetermined bacterial inoculum of approximately 3.3x105 to 3.6x105 CFU / mL in 5%hog gastric mucin grown overnight. Thirty minutes post infection, a single subcutaneous dose of imipenem with and without β-lactamase inhibitor was initiated and the survival ratio monitored for 7 days twice daily. For each strain tested, the dosing regimen used are imipenem alone (doses of 512, 1024 &2048 mg / kg of body weight) and imipenem plus β-lactamase inhibitor at ratio of 2: 1, 4: 1, 8: 1, 16: 1 &32: 1 (imipenem doses were 4, 8, 16, 32 &64 mg / kg for each ratio) . The median effective dose for 50%protective dose (ED50) of animals was determined by a computerized program of Probit analysis. Survival rates stratified for different dosing regimens were also obtained. For the experimental pneumoniae model, immunocompromised mice were used and intratracheally infected with Klebsiella pneumoniae strains. Mice in this model developed bacteraemia pneumoniae and fatal disease within 2 to 4 days with lung bacterial burden at 16-18 hours post infection of 1011 to 1013 CFU / g lung. Treatment with imipenem and inhibitor at a ratio of 2 / 1 &4 / 1 demonstrated efficacy with significant 3 to 6 log reduction in lung counts compared to imipenem alone and was relevant to the clinical situation. Human testing of the β-lactamase inhibitor can be conducted in combination with partner antibiotic at a set ratio utilizing standard clinical development practice.
