Description
PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF CONDENSED CARBAPENEME DERIVATIVES
The present invention relates to an improved process for the synthesis of an antibacterial agent.
European Patent Application publication No. 0416953A2 describes a novel class of tricyclic antibacterial agents and processes for their preparation. A particular preferred compound described therein is the methoxy derivative (I)
and salts thereof. EPA 0416953A2 also teaches that the compound of formula
(I) may be prepared by the process as outlined below:-
(I) (C)
wherein R-| a is a hydroxyl protecting group; R2a is a carboxyl protecting group and
Y is oxygen or a phosphine group.
More specifically the specification teaches the preparation of compound (I) using intermediates wherein R-| a is t-butyldimethylsilyl group, Y is oxygen and R2a is allyl or R-| a is t-butyldimethylsilyl, Y is PPh3 and R2a is benzyl.
It has unexpectedly been found that the conversion of the lactam (A), wherein Y is a phosphine group into the required tricyclic antibacterial agent (I) can be significantly improved if the hydroxyl protecting group R-| a is removed prior to the cyclisation step in the synthesis.
Thus the present invention provides a process for the preparation of the compound of formula (I)
and salts thereof which comprises the thermal cyclisation of the lactam (II)
(ID wherein R is a carboxyl protecting group followed by removal of the carboxyl protecting to give either the free carboxylic acid or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof. Suitable carboxyl protecting groups R include allyl or arylmethyl such as benzyl, t-butylbenzyl, diphenylmethyl or p-biphenylmethyl.
The thermal cyclisation process is preferably carried out by heating the compound of formula (II) in a solvent at a temperature within the range 40-
200°-. Examples of suitable solvents include hydrocarbons such as toluene or xylene, ethers such as tetrahydrofuran or 1 ,4-dioxan or an alkanol e.g. propanol or isopropanol, or esters such as ethyl acetate or mixtures of two or more such solvents.
The carboxyl protecting group R may be removed by standard processes such as those described in Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry, pages 192-210, Edited by J F W McOmie (Plenum Press 1983). For example when R represents an arylmethyl group this may be removed by conventional procedures using hydrogen and a metal catalyst e.g. palladium in a suitable solvent such as an alkanol e.g. propanol and preferably in the presence of a tertiary amine such as a trialkylamine e.g. triethylamine.
When the group R represents an allyl group then this is preferably removed by treatment with an allyl acceptor in the presence of tetrakis(triphenylphospine) palladium and optionally in the presence of triphenylphospine. Suitable allyl acceptors include sterically hindered amines such as t-butylamine, cyclic secondary amines such as morpholine or thiomorpholine, tertiary amines such as triethylamine, aliphatic or cycloaliphatic β-dicarbonyl compounds such as acetylacetone, ethyl acetoacetate or dimedone, or alkanoic acids or alkali metal salts thereof such as acetic acid, propionic acid or 2-ethyl hexanoic acid or the potassium or sodium salt thereof. The reaction is preferably carried out in an inert solvent such as an ether e.g. diethyl ether or tetrahydrofuran, an alkanol e.g. ethanol, or propanol, an ester e.g. ethyl acetate or a halohydrocarbon e.g. methylene chloride, or mixtures thereof. The reaction is conveniently carried out in the temperature range 0-40° more particularly at room temperature.
In a preferred aspect of the invention the thermal cyclisation is carried out using a compound of formula (III) wherein R is an arylmethyl group such as benzyl or p-t-butylbenzyl and at a temperature within the range 40-120° and in a solvent such as a hydrocarbon e.g. toluene, an ether e.g. 1 ,4-dioxan or an alkanol e.g. propanol or isopropanol or an ester e.g. ethylacetate or a mixture thereof with an alkanol.
The arylmethyl carboxyl protecting group R is preferably removed by hydrogenolysis using hydrogen and a metal catalyst such as palladium and in a solvent such as an alkanol e.g. ethanol, isopropanol, esters e.g. ethyl acetate or ketone e.g. acetone and in the presence of a base. Suitable bases for use in the reaction include tertiary organic bases such as trialkylamines e.g. triethylamine. The carboxylic acid (I) or a salt thereof may conveniently be converted into a physiologically acceptable salt thereof without isolation of the product of the hydrogenolysis. Thus for example the sodium salt thereof may be obtained by the addition of acetone and sodium ethylhexanoate to the reaction solution, followed by addition of a non solvent such as an ether e.g. diisopropyl ether. In this process it may be advantageous to add seed crystals of the required sodium salt.
Salts of the compound of formula (I) include physiologically acceptable salts thereof and non physiologically acceptable salts thereof.
Suitable physiologically acceptable salts of compound of formula (I) include salts formed with alkali metals e.g. sodium or potassium, alkaline earth metals e.g. calcium, amino acids (e.g. lysine and arginine) and organic bases (e.g. procaine, phenylbenzylamine, ethanolamine, diethanolamine and N-methyl glucosamine). Non physiologically acceptable salts of the compound of formula (I) may be useful as intermediates for the preparation and/or isolation of the compound of formula (I) or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof.
The hydroxy compounds of formula (II) which are novel and represent another aspect of the invention may be prepared from the corrresponding ether (III)
C02R
(III)
wherein H-\ is a trialkylsilyl group and R is as defined in formula (II) by conventional procedures. Thus if R-| is a t-butyldimethysilyl group this may be removed by treatment with tetrabutyiammonium fluoride and acetic acid in a solvent such as tetrahydrofuran or by hydrolysis with a mineral acid such as hydrochloric acid in a suitable organic solvent, for example acetonitrile and acetic acid.
The silylethers of formula (III) are either known compounds or may be prepared by the procedures described in EPA No. 0416953A2 and or the examples given below.
In order that the invention may be more fully understood the following examples are given by way of illustration only.
In the intermediates and examples all temperatures refer to OC; solutions were dreid refers to solutions dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate.
