in which R has the significance given above and R1 signifies a hydrogenolytically cleavable group, or a salt of such a compound, and, if desired, subjecting an ester of formula I obtained to an ester cleavage, if desired, treating a carboxylic acid of formula I obtained with an agent yielding the ester group R and, if desired, converting a compound of formula I obtained into a pharmaceutically compatible salt thereof.

Description

~L~7JL~Ot7 The present invention is concerned with a novel - process for the manufacture of 6-aminopenicillanic acid derivatives of the general formula CN CH=N X ~OOR

in which R represents hydrogen or - a~readily hydrolysable ester groupj ; : as well as of pharmaceutically compatible salts of these compounds, which process comprises catalytically hydro-genating a compound of the general formula .

, H H
CN I ~C H II
O COOR

in which R has the significance given above and Rl signifies a hydrogenolytically cleavable group, such as benzhydryl or especially benzyl, or a salt of such a compound, and, if desired, subjecting an ester-of formula I obtained to an ester cleavage, if desired, treating a carboxylic acid of formula I obtained with an agent yielding the ester group R and, if desired, : converting a compound of formula I obtained into a pharma-ceutically compatible salt thereof.

It has been found that the catalytic hydrogenation o. the starting materials o formula II in accordance with the invention brings about not only the cleavage of the group Rl but also a decarboxylation, so that the end effect is the replacement of the group -COORl by a ~:
hydrogen atom.

The catalytic hydrogenation in accordance with the invention is preferably carried out in the presence of a noble metal catalyst such as Raney-nickel, Raney-cobalt, platinum dioxide or preferably palladium/carbon. The S catalytic hydrogenation is preferably carried out at atmospheric pressure in a polar solvent (e.g. in a lower alkanol such as methanol, ethanol or isopropanol) and in a temperature range of about 0 to 80C, preferahly at room temperature.

The compounds of formula I as well as their pharma-ceutically compatible salts have strong antibacterial activity, especially against gram-negative bacteria, and exhibit an especially low toxicity. They are accordingly especially suitable for the treatment and prophylaxis of infectious diseases.
, Examples of readily hydrolysable ester groups denoted by R are lower alkanoyloxyalkyl (e.gO acetoxymethyl, pivaloyloxymethyl, l-acetoxyethyl and l-pivaloyloxyethyl), lower alkoxycarbonyloxyalkyl (e.g. methoxycarbonyloxy-~0 methyl, l-ethoxycarbonyloxyethyl and l-isopropoxycarbonyl-oxyethyl), lactonyl groups (e.g. phthalidyl and thio-phthalidyl), lower alkoxymethyl (e.g. methoxymethyl) and lower alkanoylaminomethyl (e.g. acetamidomethyl).
:

7~ 7 The novel starting materials of formula II can be obtained by reacting hexamethyleneimine [(CH2)6NH] with an oxalic acid monobenzyl ester halide [Hal-C0-COOC~2C6H5], preferably the chloride, treating the resulting oxalic, acid monoben~yl ester hexamethyleneimide [(CH2)6N-C0--COOCH2C6H5] with phosphorus pentasulphide and reacting the resulting hexamethyleneimino-thioxo-acetic acid benzyl ester [(CH2)6N-CS-COOCH2C6H5] with 6-aminopenicillanic acid or a readily hydrolysable ester thereof in the presence of an alkylating agent such as, for example, triethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate, preferably in the presence of an acid-binding agent such as triethylamine or diisopropylethylamine and in an inert organic solvent such as methylene chloride and at a temperature in the range of about -10C and +30C.
If desired, a thus-obtained base of formula II can be converted into the corresponding acid addition salt by the addition of acid (e.g. hydrochloric acid or p-toluene-sulphonic acid) or a thus-obtained carboxylic acid of formula II can be converted into the corresponding salt by the addition of base (e.g. sodium carbonate or potassium hydroxide).

The methylene-(2S,5R,6R)-6-[~(benzyloxy)carbonyl]--(hexahydro-lH-azepin-l-~l)methylenelamlno]-7-oxo-4-=hia-' -l-azabicyclo[3.2~0]heptane-2-carboxylate pivalate p--toluenesulphonate used as the starting material can be prepared as follows:

A solution of 19.9 g (0.1 M) of oxalic acid mono-~enzyl ester chloride in 70 ml of chloroform is addeddropwise while stirring within 45 minutes to a solution, cooled to 0, of 19.~ g (0.2 M) of hexamethvleneimine in 70 ml of chloroform and the mixture ,is subsequently stirred for 1 hour at 20. The solution is washed in each case twice with 3N a~ueous hydrochloric acid, water, 5~ aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and water, dried over magnesium sulphate and evaporated in vacuo. The oil remaining behind is distilled. There is obtained oxalic acid monobenzyl ester hexamethyleneimide of boiling point 165-170 (0.3 lS mm Torr); nD = 1.5328.

The IR spectrum of the hexamethyleneimino-thioxo-acetic acid benzyl ester obtained agrees with the structure. The unreacted starting material can be regenerated and reacted again with phosphorus pentasulphide.

13.9 g (0.05 M) of hexamethyleneimino-thioxo-acetic acid benzyl ester are dissolved in 300 ml of absolute methylene chloride, treated with 9.5 g (0.05 M) of tri-ethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate and the mixture left to stand under a slight nitrogen stream overnight under a calcium chloride closure. To this solution, previously cooled to 0, is added dropwise within 10 minutes a solution, cooled to 0, of 16.5 g (0.05 M) of 6-amino--penicillanic acid pivaloyloxymethyl ester and 8.6 ml (0.05 M) of diisopropylethylamine and the mixture is subsequently stirred for a further 5 hours at 20 while gassing with nitrogen. The solution is evaporated in vacuo at 25~, the oil is taken up in ethyl acetate, the solution is washed with aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and aqueous 5~ sodium chloride solution, dried over magnesium sulphate and evaporated in vacuo at 25.
