They are, however, obtained microbiologically, e.g. gentamicin B and B1 are coproduced with the gentamicin C complex during the fermentation of certain species of the genus Micromonospora, e.g. M. purpurea as described in U.S. Patents No. 3,091,572 and 3,915,955; and kanamycin is produced microbiologically by the fermentation of certain species of the genus Streptomyces, e.g. S. kanamyceticus as described in U.S. Patent No. 2,931,798.
- The process of this invention provides a chemical method for preparing novel 2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino-4,6-di-O-(aminogly- cosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitols having antibacterial activity which cannot be obtained via prior art microbiological methods.
- In addition the process provides a novel method for preparing known compounds, e.g. gentamicin B (which.is obtained in poor yields, i.e. less than about 10 %, when prepared microbiologically) by converting the known Antibiotic JI-20A into 2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino-Antibiotic JI-20A which has the same structure as gentamicin B.

- Of the foregoing substituents for the moiety CH2X, preferred are ethyl, n-propyl and δ-aminobutyl.
- Of the 1-N-substituted derivatives of our invention, preferred are the 1-N-(ω-amino-α-hydroxyalkanoyl)-2'-hydroxy-2'- desamino-4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitols, particularly the 1-N-(γ-amino-α-hydroxybutyryl) and the 1-N-(0-amino-a-hydroxypropionyl) derivatives, particularly valuable compounds being 1-N=(S-γ-amino-a-hydroxybutyryl)-2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin Cla and 1-N-(S-β-amino-α-hydro- xypropionyl)-2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin C1a.
- It is to be noted that the 1-N-(ω-amino-α-hydroxy) substituent.in the foregoing 1-N-(ω-amino-α-hydroxy)-2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino-4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitols may be in the R,S- form or in the R- form or in the S- form. In accordance with this invention, each of the foregoing names includes all three forms. Thus, the name 1-N-(γ-amino-α-hydroxybutyryl)-2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin Cla includes 1-N-(S-γ amino-α-hydroxybutyryl)-2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin C1a, 1-N-(R-γamino-α-hydroxybutyryl)-2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin C1a and 1-N-(R,S-γ-amino-α-hyaroxy- butyryl)-2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin C1a.
- The pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts of this invention may be prepared according to known procedures such as by neutralizing the free base with the appropriate acid, usually to about pH 5. Preferred acids for this purpose are hydrochloric, sulfuric, phosphoric and hydrobromic acid. Generally, the acid addition salts are white solids which are soluble in water and insoluble in most polar and nonpolar organic solvents.
- The process of this invention for the preparation of a 2'- liydroxy-2'-desamino-4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitol having an amino function in position 6' is characterised in that the corresponding 4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitol having an amino function in position 2' wherein all other amino functions are protected by a protecting group, is oxidized by means of hydrogen peroxide in an inert solvent in the presence of tungstate ion at a pH of about 9 to about 11, whereby the molar ratio of hydrogen peroxide to starting compound is at least 2:1, that the so-obtained 2'-oximino-4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitol is subjected to a cleavage of the oxime function; that the so-obtained 2'-oxo-4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitol is reduced at the oxo group; and that the so-obtained compound is subjected to a removal of the protecting groups.
- For the oxidation in the first step of the process it is necessary to use at least two moles of hydrogen peroxide per mole of aminoglycoside to ensure completion of reaction. Preferably, a four to five molar excess is used, and in certain instances even greater molar excesses of hydrogen peroxide are advantageously employed.
- The oxidation is usually carried out at room temperature in aqueous methanol, although other lower alkanols, e.g. ethanol and isopropanol, are conveniently employed. In general, however, any organic solvent which will dissolve the aminoglycoside and which does not react with hydrogen peroxide, e.g. dimethylacetamide, dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran, dioxan and diglyme may be used.
- After addition of the tungstate ion, it is necessary that the pH of the reaction mixture be maintained between 9 and 11 (preferably at pH 10 to pH 10.5), e.g. by addition of a base (sodium hydroxide), in order to minimize side reactions occurring such as glycoside cleavage and protonation of the amine.
- The reaction is continued until almost all the amino function is consumed as determined by thin layer chromatographic techniques, then the resulting 2'-oximino-N-protected-4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitol intermediate is isolated as a mixture of syn and anti isomers utilizing known techniques (e.g. extraction and chromatographic techniques).
- In the second step of the process, the 2'-oximino-N-protected -4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitol prepared as described above is cleaved to the corresponding 2'-oxo derivative utilizing known techniques for cleaving oximes. Pre-(ferably, the cleaving of the 2'-oximino function is achieved by an acidic hydrolytic medium in the presence of acetaldehyde (e.g. by treating a solution of the 2'-oximino derivative in acetonitrile with 1N hydrochloric acid containing acetaldehyde) or by reaction of the oximino intermediate with sodium bisulfite followed by mild acid hydrolysis. The latter procedure is preferred since greater yields of purer product are usually obtained thereby. When carrying out this procedure, the 2'-oximino-N-protected aminoglycoside intermediate in aqueous ethanol (or other aqueous lower alkanol) is usually reacted with about three to four molar equivalents of sodium bisulfite at reflux temperature until the oximino function is consumed as determined by thin layer chromatographic techniques. There is then added a weak acid (e.g. acetic acid or oxalic or tartaric acid) to produce a mild acid hydrolytic medium; the reaction mixture is then heated at reflux temperature until the reaction is complete as evidenced by thin layer chromatographic techniques.
- Reduction of the 2'-oxo-N-protected aminoglycoside intermediate in the third step is preferentially carried out by reaction with an alkali metal borohydride (usually sodium borohydride) according to known procedures for reducing a keto group to a hydroxyl function, and there is obtained an excellent yield of N-protected-2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino-aminoglycoside in which the 2'-hydroxyl function is in the equatorial position, i.e. the same stereoconfiguration as the starting 2'-amino function. After removal of the N-protecting functions according to known techniques, the resulting 2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino-4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitol is isolated and purified utilizing conventional techniques.
- When carrying out the process, all the functions desired in the final 2'-hydroxy-2'-desanino derivative may be present in the 4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitol precursor. Thus, for example, when preparing 1-N-ethyl-2'-hydroxy= 2'-desaminosisomicin, or 5-deoxy-2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminosisomicin, the corresponding 1-N-ethylsisomicin or 5-deoxysisomicin may be used as starting compounds. Alternatively, the 2'-amino function in a 4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitol can be replaced by a hydroxyl group via the process of this invention, then other functions may be introduced into the 2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino-aminoglycoside by methods known in the art. This alternate method is the method of choice when preparing the preferred 1-N-(ω-amino-α-hydroxyalkanoyl)-2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino derivatives of this invention. Thus, for example, when preparing 1-N-(S-β-amino-α-hydroxy-propionyl)-2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin C1a and 1-N-(γ-amino-a-hydroxybutyryl)-2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin Cla, a preferred method involves first converting gentamicin C1a to 2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin C1a via the process of this invention, and thence converting 2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin C1a to the 1-N-(S-β-amino-α-hydroxypropionyl)- or the 1-N-(S-γ-amino-α-hydroxybutyryl)-2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin Cla utilizing techniques known in the art and as described in the examples.
- Typical starting compounds are the 4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitol antibacterial agents described by formula I in combination with Table I above. Particularly useful starting antibiotic precursors are sisomicin and gentamicin C1a which lead to preferred 2'-hydroxy-2'-amino derivatives of this invention, and Antibiotic JI-20A which leads to gentamicin B.
- Other useful starting antibiotic precursors include 5-epi-4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitol antibacterials described in U.S. Patent No. 4,000,261; 5-epi-azido-5-deoxy-4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitol antibacterials described in U.S. Patent No. 4,000,262; l-N-alkyl-4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitol antibacterials described in U.S. Patent No. 4,002,742; 5-deoxy-4,6-di-O-(amino- glycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitol antibacterials described in U.S. Patent No. 4,053,591; and 5-epi-fluoro-5-deoxy-4,6-di-0-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitol antibacterials described in South African Patent No. 78/0385.
- A 2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino-4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitol of this invention may be converted to a corresponding 1-N-alkyl derivative or to a corresponding 5-deoxy-, or a 5-epi- or 5-epi-azido-5-deoxy derivative, via procedures analogous to those described in the above-mentioned patents.
- Thus, for example, a 2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino-4,6-di-O-(amino- glycosyl)-2-deoxystreptamine of this invention (e.g. 2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminosisomicin) is converted to the corresponding 5-deoxy derivative (e.g. 2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino-5-deoxysisomicin) by first converting said 2'-hydroxy-2'- desamino-4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-2-deoxystreptamine to the corresponding N- and 0-protected (except for the 5-hydroxyl group) intermediate (e.g. 1,3,6'-tri-N-benzyloxycarbonyl-2',2"-di-O-benzoyl-3",4"-N,O-carbonyl-2'-hydrbxy-2'-desaminosisomicin) utilizing known techniques, then converting the 5-hydroxyl group to the 5-0-thioformate ester by reaction with the Vilsmaier salt produced from phosgene and N,N-dimethylformamide in dichloromethane, followed by reaction of the imidinium chloride salt thereby produced (e.g. 1,3,6'-tri-N-benzyloxycarbonyl-2',2"-di-O-benzoyl-3",4"-N,O-carbonyl-2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminosisomicin-5-O(N,N-dimethylformimidi- nium)chloride) with hydrogen sulfide in pyridine, thence reaction of the requisite 5-0-thioformyl ester thereby formed (e.g. 1,3,6'-tri-N-benzyloxycarbonyl-5-O-thioformyl-2',2"- di-O-benzoyl-3",4"-N,O-carbonyl-2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminosisomicin) with tri-n-butylstannane in toluene and, finally, removal of the N- and 0-protecting groups in the resulting 5-deoxy derivative via known procedures to obtain a 5-deoxy-2'-desamino-2'-hydroxy compound of this invention (e.g. 2'-hydrQxy-2'-desamino-5-deoxysisomicin).
- Similarly, a 2'-hydroxy-2'-dQSamino-4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-2-deoxystreptamine of this invention is converted to the corresponding 5-epi-fluoro-5-deoxy derivative according to procedures analogous to those described in South African Patent No. 78/0385, whereby an N- and O-protected-2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino-4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-2-deoxystreptamine having a free 5-hydroxyl group (e.g. 1,3,6'-tri-N-benzyloxycarbonyl-2',2"-di-Obenzoyl-3",4"-N,0-carbonyl-2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminosisomicin) is reacted with a dialkylaminosulfur trifluoride, preferably diethylaminosulfur trifluoride in methylene chloride, followed by treatment with sodium bicarbonate and then removal of the N- and 0-protecting groups to obtain a 5-epi-fluoro-2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino-4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-2,5-dideoxystreptamine of this invention (e.g. 5-epi-fluoro-2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino-5-deoxysisomicin).
- The N-protected starting compounds of our process, wherein all amino functions except the 2'-amino group in a 4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitol are protected by groups susceptible to reductive cleavage or basic hydrolysis, are conveniently prepared by combining procedures known in the art, together with a selective blocking procedure described in Belgian Patent No. 855704. By the selective blocking procedure, a transition metal salt complex between available neighboring amino and hydroxyl functions in said 4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diamtnocyclitol and cupric acetate or nickel (II) acetate is first prepared followed by introduction of acyl functions on non-complexed and/or weakly complexed amino functions, and thence removal of said transition metal salt complex by means of hydrogen sulfide or ammonium hydroxide.
- When preparing N-protected starting compounds of saturated aminoglycosides having a primary carbinamine at C-5', e.g. 1,3,6',3"-tetra-N-protected gentamicin C1a, it is usually preferred to block the amino functions by hydrocarbonyloxy- carbonyl groups which are susceptible to reductive cleavage (e.g. with sodium in ammonia) or to alkaline hydrolysis, e.g. by utilizing blocking groups such as benzyloxycarbonyl, ethoxycarbonyl, and methoxycarbonyl groups, Such an N-protected intermediate, e.g. 1,3,6',3"-tetra-N-benzyloxycarbonylgentamicin Cla, is conveniently prepared by first reacting the unblocked aminoglycoside, e.g. gentamicin Cla, with about two equivalents of N-(trichloroethoxycarbonyloxy)succinimide in methanol in the presence of excess nickel acetate according to the selective blocking procedure whereby, after decomposition of the nickel acetate complex by means of ammonium hydroxide, there is produced 2',6'-di-N-trichloro- ethoxycarbonylgentamicin C1a; secondly, preparing the N-benzyloxycarbonyl derivatives of the remaining amino functions at the 1, 3 and 3"-positions via the well known procedure utilizing benzylchloroformate and calcium hydroxide; thirdly, treating the resulting 1,3,3"-tri-N-benzyloxycarbonyl-2',6'-di-N-(trichloroethoxycarbonyl)-gentamicin C1a with zinc in acetic acid whereby are removed the trichloro- ethoxycarbdnyl groups to produce 1,3,3"-tri-N-benzyloxy- carbonylgentamiciw C1a; then, finally, blocking the more reactive 5'-primary carbinamine group by reaction of the 1,3,3"-tri-N-blocked derivative with about one equivalent of N-(benzyloxycarbonyloxy)phthalimide in the presence of excess triethylamine to produce the desired 1,3,6',3"-tetra-N-benzyloxycarbonylgentamicin C1a, a requisite intermediate of the process of this invention.
- When preparing N-blocked aminoglycoside staring compounds from saturated 4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocycli- tols having a secondary amino function at the 6'-position (such as in gentamicin Cl), the requisite 1,3,6',3"-tetra-N-blocked intermediate (e.g. 1,3,6',3"-tetra-N-ethoxycarbonylgentamicin C1) is preferably prepared by first reacting gentamicin C1 with about one equivalent of N-benzyloxy- carbonyloxysuccinimide in the presence of about three equivalents of cupric acetate according to the selective blok- king procedure whereby, after decomposition of the copper complex with ammonium hydroxide, there is obtained 2'-N-benzyloxycarbonylgentamicin C1. Reaction of the foregoing derivative with over four equivalents of ethoxycarbonyl chloride and sodium carbonate, followed by removal of the 2'-benzyloxycarbonyl group via reductive cleavage by means of hydrogen in the presence of palladium-on-charcoal catalyst yields 1,3,6',3"-tetra-N-ethoxycarbonyl-gentamicin Cl.
- When preparing 2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino-4,6-di-O-(aminoglyco- syl)-1,3-diaminocyclitols having double bonds, such as in sisomicin, the N-blocking groups in the unsaturated amino- cyclitol are preferably N-benzoyl blocking groups since such derivatives are less susceptible to glycoside cleavage under the acidic reaction conditions necessary for the deoximation step of this process. Thus, a preferred N-blocked sisomicin starting intermediate is 1,3,6'-tri-N-benzoyl-3"-N-acetyl- sisomicin, which is conveniently prepared by first treating sisomicin with excess N-benzoyl imidazole followed by treatment of the resulting 6'-N-benzoylsisomicin with one equivalent of N-(trichloroethoxycarbonyloxy)succinimide in metha- ; nol in the presence of nickel (II) acetate according to the selective blocking procedure whereby (after decomposition of the nickel acetate complex by means of ammonium hydroxide) is produced mainly 2'-trichloroethoxycarbonyl-6'-N-benzoylsisomicin. Treatment of the foregoing with excess benzoic anhydride in methanol yields 1,3,6'-tri-N-benzoyl-2'-(tri- chloroethoxycarbonyloxy)sisomicin which, upon reaction with excess acetic anhydride followed by treatment with zinc in acetic acid in methanol yields 1,3,6'-tri-N-benzoyl-3"-N-acetylsisomicin.
- When preparing N-protected starting compounds from aminoglycosides having amino groups at the 2' and 6'-positions and hydroxyl groups at the 3' and 4'-positions (e.g. a 1,3,6'3"-tetra-N-protected-Antibiotic JI-20A), it is preferred to first protect the 6'-position by reacting the aminoglycoside with about one equivalent of N-benzyloxycar- bonyloxyphthalimide in the presence of about one equivalent of cupric chloride according to the selective blocking procedure whereby, after decomposition of the copper complex with ammonium hydroxide there is obtained the 6'-N-benzyloxycarbonyl derivative (e.g. 6'-N-benzyloxycarbonyl-Antibiotic JI-20A). The 2'-position is then protected by reaction of the foregoing 6'-N-substituted derivative with about a mole of either N-tert.-butoxycarbonyloxyphthalimide or N-(2,2,2-tri- chloroethoxy)carbonyloxyphthalimide in the presence of about an equivalent of nickel acetate according to the selective blocking method whereby, after decomposition of the nickel complex with ammonium hydroxide, the corresponding 2'-N-tert.-butoxycarbonyl or 2'-N-(2,2,2-trichloroethoxycarbonyl) derivative is formed (e.g. 2'-N-tert.-butoxycarbonyl- or 2'-N-(2,2,2-trichloroethoxycarbonyl)-6'-N-benzyloxycarboyl-Antibiotic JI-20A).. Reaction of the foregoing 2',6'-di-N-protected-aminoglycoside with over three equivalents of benzyloxy- carbonylchloride according to standard blocking procedures, followed by removal fo the 2'-N-tert.-butoxycarbonyl-protecting group with trifluoroacetic acid or removal of the 2'-N-(2,2,2-trichloroethoxy)-protecting group by treatment with trifluoroacetic acid or zinc and acetic acid in methanol respectively yields a 1,3,6',3"-tetra-N-protected-Aminoglycoside starting compound of this invention, e.g. l,3,6',3"-tetra-N-benzyloxy-Antibiotic JI-20A.
- It will be obvious to one skilled in the art that other requisite 1,3,6',3"-tetra-N-acyl aminoglycoside starting compounds of this process can be prepared by other combinations of acylating procedures known in the art together with the selective blocking procedures disclosed in Belgian Patent No. 855704.

- Dissolve 5.0 g of 2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin C1a in 25 ml water and adjust the pH of the solution to 4.5 with 1 N sulfuric acid. Pour into about 300 ml of methanol with vigorous agitation, continue the agitation for about 10 - 20 minutes and filter. Wash the precipitate with methanol and dry at about 60°C in vacuo to obtain 2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin C1a sulfate.
- In like manner, the sulfate salt of the compounds of Examples 2 to 8 are prepared.
- Dissolve 5.0 g of 2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin C1a in 2'5 ml of water. Acidify with 2 N hydrochloric acid to pH 5. Lyophilize to obtain 2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin C1a hydrochloride.
- In like manner, the hydrochloride salt of the compounds of Examples 2 to 8 are prepared.
- The 21-hydroxy-2'-desamino-4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitols of this invention (particularly those wherein the 6-0-aminoglycosyl is 6-O-garosaminyl and wherein the 1,3-diaminocyclitol is 2-deoxystreptamine) and their non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts, in general, exhibit broad spectrum antibacterial activity and possess an improved antibacterial spectrum compared to that of the parent antibiotics. This improved spectrum consists of enhanced potency of the claimed compounds against organisms resistant to the parent compound. Thus, for example, compounds of this invention, e.g. 2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino-4-O-aminogly- cosyl-6-0-garosaminyl-2-deoxystreptamines, are more active against organisms which inactivate the parent antibiotics by acetylation of the 2'-amino group. In addition to the foregoing, the 2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino-4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitols and their non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts are, in general, less acutely toxic than their precursor 2'-amino parent antibiotics.
- Particularly valuable are 2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino-gentamicin C1 and 2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin C1a, which derivatives are broad spectrum antibacterial agents, being active against gram positive bacteria (e.g. Staphylococcus aureus) and gram negative bacteria (e.g. Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) as determined by standard dilution tests, including,bacteria resistant to the parent compound.
- Most valuable compounds of this invention are the 1-N-(ω-amino-a-hydroxy) derivatives of 2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin Cla' particularly 1-N-(S-γ-amino-α-hydroxybutyryl)-2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin C1a and 1-N-(S-β-amino-α-hydroxypropionyl)-2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin C1a which exhibit broader spectra of antibacterial activity than the precursor 1-N-unsubstituted-2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin Cla or the corresponding 1-N-(S-ω-amino-α-hydroxyalkanoyl) gentamicin Cla. These preferred compounds possess improved potency versus bacteria resistant to the aforementioned precursor compounds, being active against 2"-adenylating and 3-acetylating strains of bacteria. Additionally, the foregoing 1-N-(ω-amino-α-hydroxy) derivatives of 2'-hydroxy-2'- desaminogentamicin C1a are advantageously less acutely toxic than the corresponding 1-N-(ω-amino-α-hydroxy)gentamicin C1a.
- The 2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino compounds of this invention can be used alone or in combination with other antibiotic agents to prevent the growth or reduce the number of bacteria in various environments. They may be used, for example, to disinfect laboratory glassware, dental and medical equipment contaminated with Staphylococcus aureus or other bacteria inhibited by the 2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino derivatives of this invention.
- The activity of the 2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino-4,6-di-O-(amino- glycosyl)-l,3-diaminocyclitols against gram negative bacteria renders them useful for combatting infections caused by gram negative organisms, e.g. species of Proteus and Pseudomonas. The 2'-hydroxy-21-desamino-4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitols, e.g. 1-N-(S-γ-amino-α-hydroxybutyryl)-2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin C1a and 1-N-(S-β-amino-α-hydroxypropionyl)-2'-hydroxy-2'-desaminogentamicin C1a, have veterinary applications, particularly in the treatment of mastitis in cattle and Salmonella-induced diarrhea in domestic animals such as the dog and the cat.
- The dosage administered of the 2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino-4,6-di-0-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitols will be dependent upon the age and wieght of the animal species being treated, the mode of administration, and the type and severity of bacterial infection being prevented or reduced. In general, the dosage employed to combat a given bacterial infection will be similar to the' dosage requirements of the corresponding 4,6-di-O-(aminoglycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitol.
- The compounds of this invention may be administered orally. They may also be applied topically in the form of ointments, both hydrophilic and hydrophobic, in the form of lotions which may be aqueous, non-aqueous or of the emulsion type or in the form of creams. Pharmaceutical carriers useful in the preparation of such formulations will include, for example, such substances as water, oils, greases, polyesters, polyols and the like.
- For oral administration, the compounds of this invention may be compounded in the form of tablets, capsules, elixirs or the like or may even be admixed with animal feed. It is in these dosage forms that the antibacterials are most effective for treating bacterial infections of the gastrointestinal tract, which infections cause diarrhea.
- In general, the topical preparations will contain from about 0.1 to about 3.0 g of a 2'-hydroxy-2'-desamino-4,6-di-O-(amino- glycosyl)-1,3-diaminocyclitol derivative per 100 g of ointment, creams or lotion. The topical preparations are usually applied gently to lesions from about 2 to about 5 times a day.
- The antibacterials of this invention may be dtilized in liquid form such as solutions, suspensions and the like for otic and optic use and may also be administered parenterally via intramuscular injection. The injectable solution or suspension will usually be administered at from about 1 mg to about 10 mg of antibacterial per kilogram of body weight per day divided into about 2 to about 4 doses. The precise dose depends on the stage and severity of the infection, the susceptibility of the infecting organism to the antibacterial and the individual characteristics of the animal species being treated.
- The following formulations are to exemplify some of the dosage forms in which the antibacterial agents of this invention and their derivatives may be employed.
-
