Description

~z43z9~7 toR,7R)-7-[(Z)-2-(2-Aminothiazol-4-yl)-2-(2-carboxyprop-2-ox;m;no)acetam;do~-3-(1-pyrid;n;ummethyl)-3-cephem-4-carboxylate (ceftaz;d;m~ ;s a cephalospor;n ant;b;ot;c of the 3rd generat;on wh;ch has pronounced eff;cacy for 6ram-negat;ve pathogens, ;nclud;ng pseudo-monas spec;es. The pentahydrate of th;s compound (cf.
German Offenlegungsschr;ft 3,037,102) has h;therto been the only crystall;ne form wh;ch ;s well su;ted for parenteral use.
It is known that the stab;l;ty of cephalosporins ;s l;mited and that they readily decompose on storage.
The cause of this ;s the h;gh sensitivity to hydrolysis of the ~-lactam ring ~h;ch can even react slowly w;th water bound in the crystal latt;cs when the molecule ;s exposed to heat stress or is sto'red for a prolonged per;od at room temperature. Thus ;t is very important to employ the most stable crystall;ne form poss;ble for med;cal use of a cephalosporin antibiotic.
It has now been found that ceftaz;d;m can be con-verted ;nto a new crystall;ne mod;f;cation which is dis-t;ngu;shed from the pentahydrate by ;ncreased stab;l;ty to heat and ;s part;cularly ~ell su;ted for a parenteral formulat;on.
Thus the ;nvent;on relates to a crystall;ne ceftaz;d;m x 1.5 mol water~ ;ts'pharmaceutical formula-t;ons, and a process for ;ts preparat;on wh;ch compr;ses rehydrat;ng anhydrous crystalline ceftazid;m in mo;st ~24~t297 a;r until the indicated amount of water has been absorbed.
The crystall;ne mod;f;cation accord;ng to the invention has a characteristic Debye-Scherrer diagram ~Table 1) wh;ch proves the presence of a new crystalline form having new phys;cal and chemicaL properties.
The water content of ~he ceftazidim crystall;ne mod;fication according to the invention can vary by 0.2 to 0.4 mol, depend;ng on the atmospheric humidity under which the samples are manipulated and investigated, without any change in the crystalline modification bein observed.
The anhydrous crystalline form ~hich can be employed as start;ng mater;al can be obtained as cla;med 5 in Canadian Patent Application No. 452,043 by dehydrat;on of a crystall;ne ceftazidim hydrate, preferably the pentahydrate, to constant ~e;ght~
The absorption of water can be carried out using a;r under normal amb;en~ condit;ons or hav;ng an increased moisture content, such as, for example, 50 to 80Z relative atmospher;c humidity. The mo;sture content of the a;r can also be art;fic;ally increased in a known manner, for example by prev;ously mix;ng with ~ater vapor.
The desired amount of water in the crystals is followed by weight checks and, after achieving complete conversion of the crystals into a hydrate containing 1.5 mol of water, absorption is terminated.
As a rule, rehydration is carried out at room ~ , , `

L3;;~9~
~, temperature, bu~ it can also take place at elevated tfor example 40C) or reduced temperatures tfor example 1 0 C ) The time for the rehydration depends, in par-S ticular, on the particle size of the starting material, the thickness of the layer of material and the external conditions, such as, for example, the atmospheric humi-dity and the temperature. Thus, for example, it can be bet~een several hours and days.
The crystalline mod;fication according to the invention exhibits a higher stability than ceftazidim pentahydrate on storage of the samples under heat stress, and is thus ~ore suited for medical use.
The compound accord;ng to the invention is a valuable antibiotic ~hich is suited for controlling Gram-positive and, in particular, 6ram-negative ;nfections (cf. German Offenlegungsschrift 2,921,316).
Thus, the invention also relates to pharmaceuti-cal formulations ~hich contain the compound according to the invention, such as, for examp~e, solutions, suspen-sions or emulsions in oily or aqueous vehicles.
The compound according to the invention can be used as such or combined ~ith auxiliaries customarily employed in therapy, such as, for example, formulating agents, solvents, suspending agents and/or dispersants.
It ;s also possible for the active compound, before being used, to be present in the formulation in the form of a powder, for example, for dissoLution in, for ex-ample, sterile and pyrogen-free ~ater. In order to ,`

prepare aqueous solutions, the act;ve compound is advan-tageously dissolved by the addition of a basic aux;liary, such as, for example, sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, potassium carbonate, potassium bicarbonate, lithium car-bonate, calcium carbonate, magnesiurn carbonate, tri-hydroxymethylmethylamine, ethylenediamine, lysine, arginine, glucosamine, N-methylglucosamine, trihydroxy-methylethylamine, d;ethanolam;ne, d;ethylamine, p;perazine or procaine.
The formulat;ons are prepared ;n a manner known per se~ for example by m;x;ng, ;ncorporation by stirring~
d;ssolving etc. ~ith or in the pharmaceutical auxiliaries.
The amount present in a single dose can be, for example, bet~een about 50 and 1,500 mg of active compound, ~hile a daily dose can amount to about 0.5 to ~ 9, preferably 1 to 3 g.

-- ~L2~2~

E~ample 8.2 g of crystall;ne and anhydrous ceftaz;d;m (obta;ned by the method of Canadian Patent Application No. 452,043 are allol~ed to stand in air for t~o days. The relative atmospheric humidity was between 50 and 70% when the experiment was carried out. About 400 mg of water had been absorbed after the indicated period. A colorless crystall;ne ceftazidim contain;ng 1.5 mol of water is quantitatively produced, and this differs very characteristically from the anhydrous form and the pentahydrate of ceftazidim in the Debye-Scherrer diagram (cf. Table 1). Slight fluc-tuations in the ~ater content do not affect the struc-ture or qua~;ty of the crystals.
