The preparation of representative foregoing compounds I to XXI is discussed below wherein each section is referred to by the formula of the compounds prepared.
3-Azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane (V) 3-Azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane may be prepared by the method of D. A. Wood et al. European Patent Publication 0010799 from 1,2-cyclopropanedicarboxylic acid.
2-R3-Substituted 3-Azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes (VI) 2-Cyano-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane can be prepared by the method of D. A. Wood et al. EP 0010799. Protection of the ring nitrogen, for instance by a benzyl group, then provides 3-benzyl-2-cyano-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane.
Reduction of the nitrile with lithium aluminum hydride gives a compound of the formula VI wherein R3 is CH2NH2 and the 3-N is benzylated. This compound, and all subsequently described amino-substituted azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexyl systems, may be advantageously protected, for instance with an alkoxycarbonyl group such as tert-butoxy-carbonyl, or a carboxylic acid group such as formyl or acetyl, and subsequently debenzylated via hydrogenation to provide the protected 2-aminomethyl-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane. After coupling of this debenzylated diamine to a quinolone or naphthyridine nucleus by reaction with a compound of the formula II, the amino-protecting group such as the tert-butoxy-carbonyl or acetyl group can be removed by exposure to acidic conditions.

Alternatively, the diamine 2-aminomethyl-3-benzyl-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane can be formylated or acetylated by heating to reflux with ethyl formate, according to the procedure of Moffat et al., J. Org. Chem., 27, 4058 (1962), or acetyl chloride. These amides can then be reduced to the corresponding amines with lithium aluminum hydride, to provide a compound of the formula VI wherein R3 is CH2NHCH3 or CH2NHC2H5. This compound may be protected, as in the case of the conversion of the above diamine 2-aminomethyl-3-benzyl-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane to 2-[(N-acetyl)amino-methyl] or 2-[(N-tert-butoxycarbonyl)aminomethyl]-3-benzyl-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane, then debenzylated and appended to the quinolone or naphthyridine nucleus by reaction with a compound of the formula II.
For the case wherein R3 is CH3, the above nitrile 3-benzyl-2-cyano-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane can be hydrolyzed under acidic or basic conditions to the corresponding carboxylic acid, and reduced with lithium aluminum hydride to the alcohol 3-benzyl-2-hydroxy-methyl-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane. Formation of the tosylate followed again by lithium aluminum hydride reduction provides the 2-methyl congener 3-benzyl-2-methyl-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane, which can be debenzylated as above.
l-R6-Substituted-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes (VII) These compounds can be prepared from the nitrile 3-benzyl-1-cyano-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane, whose preparation is reported by Achini and Oppolzer, Tetrahedron Letters, 1975, 369. Alternatively, the nitrile may be synthesized from 3-[(benzyl)(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)amino]-propanenitrile via bismesylation, followed by double ring closure with sodium hexamethyldisilazide. Transformation of the nitrile functionality of 3-benzyl-1-cyano-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane into CH3, CH2NH2, CH2NHCH3 or CH2NHC2H5 can be carried out as in section VI above.
Hydrolysis of 3-benzyl-1-cyano-3-azabicyclo-[3.1.0]hexane to 3-benzyl-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-1-carboxylic acid can be carried out under basic conditions.
Subsequent reaction with diphenylphosphoryl azide in t-butanol, using the procedure reported by Ninomiya et al., Tetrahedron 1974, 30, 2151, provides the protected amine 3-benzyl-1-tert-butoxycarbonylamino-3-azabicyclo-[3.1.0]hexane. Debenzylation as above yields an amine which can be coupled to the quinolone or naphthyridine nucleus by reaction with a compound of the formula II;
acidic removal of the tert-butoxycarbonyl group provides the final product with an amino group as the 1-substituent in the 3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane side chain.
Removal of the tert-butoxycarbonyl group from the protected amine to give 1-amino-3-benzyl-3-azabicyclo-[3.1.0]hexane can be followed by acetylation or formylationand lithium aluminum hydride reduction as above to provide a compound of the formula VII wherein R6 is NHCH3 or NHC2H5. This can be further processed as in Section VI to provide the final product bearing a methylamine or ethyl-amine at C-l of the 3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane side chain.
Alternatively, 3-benzyl-1-tert-butoxycarbonylamino-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane can be N-alkylated by treatment with sodium hydride and methyl or ethyl iodide. The resulting diprotected N-alkyl compound can be debenzylated and processed as in Section VI.
6-R7-Substituted-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes (VIII) Addition of ethyl diazoacetate to N-benzylmaleimide generates a pyrazoline which upon thermolysis provides 3-benzyl-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-2,4-dione-6-carboxylic acid ethyl ester. Reduction with lithium aluminum hydride gives 3-benzyl-6-hydroxymethyl-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane;
Swern oxidation followed by oxime formation and lithium aluminum hydride reduction then produces the primary amine, which can be protected or treated as above to give a compound of formula VIII wherein R7 is CH2NHCH3 or CH2NHCH2CH3 .
Alternatively, 3-benzyl-6-hydroxymethyl-3-azabicyclo-[3.1.0]hexane can be treated as in Section VI to provide 2 02 3 2~7 the 6-methyl derivative. To prepare compounds with a 6-amino group, hydrogenolytic removal of the benzyl group from 3-benzyl-6-hydroxymethyl-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane is followed by introduction of a benzyloxycarbonyl group;
Jones oxidation at this point provides 3-benzyloxy-carbonyl-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-6-carboxylic acid.
Curtius rearrangement as in Section VII, using diphenyl-phosphoryl azide, yields 3-benzyloxycarbonyl-6-tert-butoxy-carbonylamino-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane, which can be taken on to the analogue bearing a primary amine, or which can be deprotected and further manipulated as in Section VII to provide the compounds of formula VIII wherein R7 is NHCH3 or NHC2H5.
Another route to these compounds involves treatment of N-benzyloxycarbonyl-3-pyrroline with ethyl diazoacetate under rhodium acetate catalysis, to provide the ethyl ester of 3-benzyloxycarbonyl-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-6-carboxylic acid. Basic hydrolysis, for instance withsodium hydroxide in methanol, then gives the corresponding carboxylic acid, which can be processed as described above.
Alternatively, the benzyloxycarbonyl group can be removed by hydrogenolysis, and the nitrogen functionality protected as a benzyl derivative, by treatment with benzyl bromide.
Subsequent lithium aluminum hydride reduction then gives 3-benzyl-6-hydroxymethyl-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane, which can be further functionalized as described above.
1,2-R6,R3-Disubstituted-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes (IX) Modification of the Oppolzer procedure mentioned in Section VII provides this substitution pattern. For the 2-methyl substituted compounds, 3-benzylaminobutanenitrile is used as the starting material. For all other 2-substituents, 3-(benzylamino)-4-[(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)oxy]-butanenitrile, available from beta-cyanoalanine via carboxylic acid reduction, alcohol protection and N-benzylation, can be reacted with glycidol to provide 3-[(benzyl)(2,3-dihydroxy-propyl)amino]-4-[(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)oxy]butanenitrile. Tosylation of the primary alcohol is followed by base-induced ring closure to 3-[(benzyl)(2,3-epoxypropyl)amino]-4-[(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2yl)oxy]-butanenitrile; sodium hexamethyldisilazide treatment provides l-benzyl-4-hydroxymethyl-2-[(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)oxy]methyl-3-pyrrolidine-carbonitrile. A second tosylation can be followed again by base-induced ring closure to the 3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane 1~ of the formula IX wherein the 2-substituent is tetrahydro-pyranyloxymethyl, the l-substituent is cyano, and the 3-aza nitrogen is benzylated. The nitrile functionality of the latter can be transformed into all of the substituents R6 as in Section VII.
For the elaboration of the C-2 substituent R3, final C-l substituents R6 bearing amino groups can be protected as the corresponding acetamides. Subsequent acid-induced removal of the tetrahydropyran (THP) protecting group gives a primary alcohol which can be subjected to a Swern oxidation; reductive amination of the derived aldehyde with ammonium acetate, methylamine or ethylamine then provides the corresponding amines of the formula IX wherein R6 is CH3 or amino-protected CH2NH2, CH2NHCH3, CH2NHC2H5, NH2, NHCH3, or NHC2H5, and R is CH2NH2, CH2NHCH3, or CH2NHC2H5.
