2,445,341, ~r. 2,412,598, ~r. 2,432,415 and ~r. 2,455,884 and British Patent No. 1,412,886.
An object of this invention is to provide novel cephalosporin derivatives having excellent antibiotic activity against gram posi-tive and negative bacteria.
It has now been found that the aforesaid object of this inven-tion can be attained by the provision of 7a-methoxy-7~-heterocyclic thioacetamido-3-heterocyclic thiomethyl-~ -cephem-4-carboxylic acid shown by aforesaid general formula I and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.
The compounds of this invention are suggested as very broad and vague concepts such as 5-membered or 6-membered heterocyclic ring-substituted cephalosporin derivatives in the known art but have neither been prepared nor been investigated about the pharma-ceutical activities prior to the inventors' discovery.
Now, in the compounds of this invention represented by formula I, examples of the lower alkyl group include straight chain or hranched chain hydrocarbon groups having 1-4 carbon atoms, such as, methyl group, ethyl group, propyl group, isopropyl group, n-butyl group, sec-butyl group, tert-butyl group, etc. Also, as the phar-maceutically acceptable salts of the aforesaid compounds of this invention, there are the alkali metal salts such as sodium salts, potassium salts, etc.; the alkaline earth metal salts such as cal-cium salts, magnesium salts, etc.; the organic amine salts such as 4i3 trimethylamine salts, ethanolamine salts, diethanolamine salts,lysine salts, alginine salts, ornithine salts, etc.
In cases where the substituents mean hydroxy group, mercapto group or amino group, it is possible for the substituents to exist in more than one tautomeric form, i.e. the hydroxy or oxo, mercapto or thioxo and substituted or unsubstituted amine or substituted or unsubstituted imino group. The compounds may exist exclusively as one tautomer or may be in equilibrium mixture between other forms.
The aimed compounds of this invention may be produced by several modes of reaction which vary with the selection of the starting materials, the availability of reaction reagents, the separation procedure of by-products at the reaction, the applica-bility of reaction condition, etc. The typical reaction modes of producing the aimed compounds of this invention will be illustrated below but not to limit it in any way.
In the first reaction mode, 7a-methoxy-3-heterocyclic thio-methyl-7-substituted or unsubstituted amino-~ -cephem-4-carboxylic acid represented by the general formula OCH

wherein R represents n ~herein R and R , which may be the same or different, each repre-sents a hydrogen atom, a hydroxy group, an amino group, or a lower-alkyl group; n represents 0 or 1; R represents a hydroxy group, an amino group, a mercapto group, a lower alkylamino group, a lower alkanoylamino group, a lower alkoxycarbonylamino group, a carboxy lower alkylthio group, or a 3-lower alkylureido group;and X repre-sents -CH- or =N- ) and B represents a hydroyen atom or R -S- when Z is Y-CH2-CO- group or represents -CH2COOH or the reactive deri-vative of the carboxy group thereof when Z is a hydrogen atom.
The reaction of the first mode is explained below in more detail.
In one type of the first mode of reaction, 7~-haloacetamido-7a-methoxy-3-heterocyclic thiomethyl-~ -cephem-4-carboxylic acid represented by the general formula Y-CH2CONH ~ S ~ 2 II
O N ~ CH -S-R

COOH

wherein Y and R have the same meaning as above, is caused to react with the compound shown by R -S-A III
(wherein A represents a hydrogen atom or R -S- ) in the presence of a base.
That is, the reaction of compound of formula II and the 34i3 compound of formula III is usually performed in an organic solvent which does not affect the reaction, water, or a mixture thereof under cooling or at room temperature. As the base used in this reaction, there are aliphatic nitrogen bases, aromatic nitrogen bases, heterocyclic nitrogen bases, alkali metal carbonates, alkali metal hydrogencarbonates, etc. Suitable examples of these bases are triethylamine, N,~-dimethylaniline, N-ethylmorpholine, pyridine, collidine, 2,6-lutidine, potassium carbonate, sodium carbonate, potassium hydrogencarbonate, and sodium hydrogencarbonate.
As the halogen atom shown by Y in the above-described formula II, there are chlorine atom, bromine atom, fluorine atom, etc. The amount of the compound of formula III used in this reaction is equimolar amount or excessive molar amount to that of compound of formula II, preferably 1-2 mole times.
Typical examples of the organic solvent which is used without influence on the reaction are methanol, chloroform, methylene chloride, ethylene chloride, acetone, tetrahydrofuran, dimethyl-formamide, etc.

COOH
wherein R has the same meaning as above, is allowed to react with an e~uimolar or excessive molar amount, preferably 1-2 mole times of the heterocyclic thioacetic acid shown by 34~3 wherein R has the same meaning as above, or the reactive derivative of the carboxy group thereof in an organic solvent which does not effect the reaction.
When the carboxy group of the compound of formula V is not protected, the reaction is carried out in the presence of a con-densing agent such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, carbonyldiimida-zole, etc. Also, when the reactive derivative of the carboxy group is an acid halide such as acid chloride, etc., the reaction is performed in the presence of an almost equimolar amount of a base such as triethylamine, pyridine, etc. Furthermore, as the reactive derivative of the carboxy group, active esters such as p-nitro-phenyl ester, etc., may be employed.
In the second reaction mode of producing the aimed compounds of this invention, 7a-methoxy-7~-heterocylic-thioacetamido-3-acetoxymethyl-~ -cephem-4-carboxylic acid represented by the general formula R SCH2CONH I ~ ~
~ --N~ CH20COCH3 VI
COOH

wherein R has the same meaning as above, is caused to react with the compound shown by R -SM VII
wherein R has the same meaning as above and M represents a hydrogen atom or an alkali metal atom.
It is preferred to conduct the reaction at nearly neutral condition and the compound of formula VI is made to react with an equimolar amount or excessive molar amount of the compound of formula VII. As the alkali metal salt of the compound of formula 34~3 VII, there are the sodium salt, potassium salt, etc. When the com-pound of formula VII wherein M is hydrogen atom is used, it is pre-ferred to perform the reaction in the presence of a base such as an alkali hydroxide, an alkali metal carbonate, an alkali metal hydro~
gencarbonate~ a trialkylamine (e.g. triethylamine), pyridine, di-methylaniline, etc. The reaction is usually performed in an organic solvent, which does not affect the reaction, such as acetone, dimethylformamide, methanol, ethanol, etc., water, or a mixture thereof, or further a phosphate buffer solution at room temperature or under heating.
The carboxy group of at 3~position of the cephem ring of the starting material may also be protected by the known protecting group such as diphenyl methyl group, triphenyl methyl group, methyl group or ethyl group during the reaction steps and can be split in the final stage by a procedure known in the art.
The compounds of this invention thus produced can be converted into the nontoxic pharmaceutically acceptable or useful salts thereof. These salts may be formed according to an ordinary manner.
For example, the alkali metal salt of the aimed compound of formula I can be obtained by adding to the compound a n-butanol solution of an alkali metal 2-ethylhexanoate and then adding an organic solvent having low solubility of the formed salt, such as ether, ethyl acetate, etc. Also, by adding to the compound an equimolar or a slightly excessive amount of an organic base such as triethylamine, diethanolamine, alginine, lysine, etc., the salt of the organic base can be formed. Or, further, by adding to the compound aqueous ammonia or an organic solvent solution of ammonia, the ammonium salt of the compound can also be formed. These salts are inter-changeable with each other by an ordinary manner, if desired.
The compound of the formula I or the salt thereof of this 34~3 invention is isolated and purified by ordinary manners.
The compounds of this invention produced by the aforesaid methods are antibiotics showing excellent antimicrobial activity against various gram positive and negative bacteria and are useful for treatment and prophylaxis of various diseases caused by these bacteria, for preservatives of foods and chemical industrial pro-ducts, and as additives for feed. The minimum inhibiting concen-trations (MIC) (mcg/ml) thereof by in vitro test are shown in the following tables in detail.
