Description

PYRAZOLOTETRACYCLINES
The present invention concers novel tetracycline derivatives, more particularly novel pyrazolotetracyclines, a process for their preparation and pharmaceutical compositions containing them.
Tetracyclines are among the most studied antibiotics since their discovery, at the end of years forty. Many books have been dedicated to the chemistry, to the activity of these products and, more particularly, to the relationship between their chemical structure and their antibiotic activity.
Deep structure/activity studies on tetracyclines have led to conclude that the basic structure of the natural tetracycline of formula A
which is a naphthacenecarboxamide derivative called, according to the Chemical Abstracts nomenclature (CAS Registry Number 60-54-8),
[4S, (4α,4aα,5aα,6β,12aα) ]-4-(dimethylamino)-1,4,4a,5,5a,6, 11, 12a-octa hydro-3,6,10,12,12a-pentahydroxy-6-methyl-l,ll-dioxo-2-naphthacenecar boxamide, may be irreversibly, but in an appropriate manner, modified in the positions from 4a to 9 in order to obtain compounds still endowed with antibiotic activity, whilst any irreversible modification in the positions 1, 2, 3, 4 and from 10 to 12a involves a loss of the antibiotic activity. Therefore, these positions are considered as "inviolate" (Medical Research Series, Vol. 9, Lester A. Mitscher, The Chemistry of the Tetracycline Antibiotics, Marcel Dekker, Inc., 1978).
Infact, Valcavi et al., Gazz. Chi . Ital., 1963, 93, 916-928, described certain pyrazolotetracyclines, i.e. compounds obtained by modification of the structure of tetracycline and chlorotetracycline on the positions 11 and 12 by the action of hydrazine and concluded that these compounds had lost their activity or were less active than the starting tetracyclines. it has now been found that pyrazolotetracyclines bearing an optionally substituted amino group in the 7-position of the tetracycline moiety are at least as active as the parent tetracyclines, and even more active. More particularly, it has been found that, notwithstanding the modification of the tetracycline structure on the positions 11 and 12, the novel compounds are endowed with the same properties of the parent tetracycline and are even more active on certain micro-organisms.
Thus, it is an object of the present invention to provide novel pyrazolotetracyclines of formula (I)
in which R is hydrogen, a substituted or unsubstituted (C.-C8)alkyl, (C2-C,)alkenyl or (C2-Cg)alkynyl group, a substituted or unsubstitu ted aryl or heteroaryl group, a substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl or cycloalkadienyl group and R' represents a basic group, preferably an amino, dimethylamino, (C.-C-j)alkylamino or formyleunino group, and their acid addition salts, their solvates and their complexes.
Among the salts, the solvates and the complexes, those which are pharmaceutically acceptable or which allow an easy separation of the pyrazolotetracycline involved are particularly preferred. The preferred salts are the hydrochloride, the hydrogenosulfate, the sulfate. The solvates can be those of the free base or of the salts, the hydrates being preferred. The complexes are generally those which allow an easy isolation of the pyrazolotetracycline, the complex with calcium chloride dihydrate being particularly preferred. A subclass of compounds according to the present invention includes pyrazolotetracyclines of formula I above, wherein R' is as defined above and R is hydrogen or a substituted or unsubstituted (C,-Cg)alkyl, (C2-Cg)alkenyl or (C2-Cg)alkynyl group; a cycloalkyl group of from 3 to 8 carbon atoms; a cycloalkenyl group of from 4 to 8 carbon atoms, such as cyclohexenyl, more particularly 1-cyclo hexenyl; a phenyl group which may be unsubstituted or substituted with one or more substituents selected from the group consisting of halogens, particularly fluoro, chloro and iodo substituents, (c ι~ C3)alkyl, (C.-C,)alkoxy, trifluoromethyl, pentafluoroethyl, amino, nitro, cyano, carboxy, methoxy- or ethoxycarbonyl, phenyl, chloro phenyl, bromophenyl, fluorophenyl, (C1~C3)alkoxyphenyl; a naphthyl group which may be unsubstituted or substituted with one or two methoxy groups; a mono-, bi- or tricyclic heteroaryl group, preferably selected from the group consisting of lH-pyrrolyl, 1-(C1~ C,)alkylpyrrolyl, furyl, thienyl, pyridyl, oxazolyl, lH-imidazolyl, 1-(C.-C-. ) alkylimidazolyl, thiazolyl, isothiazolyl, pyrimidyl, pyrazinyl, 1,3,4-thiadiazolyl, 1,2,4-thiadiazolyl, furazanyl, 1,3,5- triazinyl, 2-, 3-, 4-, 5-, 6- and 7-benzofuranyl or benzothienyl, 1H- and l-(C1-C3)alkyl-2-, 3-, 4-, 5-, 6- and 7-indolyl, 2-, 3-, 4-, 5-, 6-, 7- and 8-quinolyl, 1-, 3-, 4-, 5-, 6-, 7- and 8-isoquinolyl, 2- benzothiazolyl, quinoxalinyl, phthalazinyl, carbazolyl, as well as their salts, solvates and complexes, those which are pharmaceutically acceptable or allow an easy isolation of the pyrazolotetracycline being particularly preferred. Another advantageous subclass of compounds according to the present invention includes those of formula I wherein R is hydrogen or a group as defined above and R* is selected from the group consisting of formylamino, methylamino, isopropylamino and dimethyl amino, as well as their salts, solvates and complexes which are pharmaceutically acceptable or which allow an easy separation of the pyrazolotetracycline involved.
Among these last compounds, that of formula I in which R is hydrogen and R' is dimethylamino (configuration of the 7-dimethylami no-6-demethyl-6-deoxytetracycline or minocycline) hereinbelow designated "pyrazolominocycline" as well as its salts, solvates and complexes which are pharmaceutically acceptable or which allow an easy isolation of the pyrazolotetracycline, for example the complex with calcium chloride dihydrate, are particularly preferred.
Even in the case of the compounds of the present invention the description and the examples which follow will refer, in general, to pyrazolotetracyclines. Actually the correct nomenclature of these compounds is [9S(7aα,8aα,9α-12aα) ]2a,7,7a,8,8a,9,12, 12a-octahydro(lH) benzo[g]naphth[ 1, 2 , 3-cd] indazole and their structure (B) is as follows:
According to another of its aspects, the present invention provides a process for the preparation of pyrazolotetracyclines of formula I and of their salts, solvates and complexes which comprises reacting the corresponding tetracycline of formula II
wherein R' is as defined above, or a salt or solvate thereof, with a hydrazine of formula III R-NH-NH2 (III) wherein R is as defined above and isolating the pyrazolotetracycline thus obtained in form of a base or of a complex thereof and, if necessary, transforming the free base in an acid addition salt thereof. The reaction of the tetracycline of formula II or of its salt or solvate with the hydrazine of formula III is easy and rapid. It occurs in an organic or aqueous-organic, preferably alcoholic or hydroalcoholic solvent, preferably in methanol. The reaction temperature is the room temperature (20÷30°C) when unsubstituted hydrazine (III, R = H) is used or a temperature of from 25 to 90°C when a substituted hydrazine is used to obtain a pyrazolotetracycline of formula I wherein R is other than hydrogen.
The reaction is generally over after 1 to 5 hours and the compound I thus obtained is isolated according to the conventional procedures of the tetracyclines chemistry, for example by acidifying the reaction mixture and by forming a complex of the compound obtained therein with a calcium salt, preferably with calcium chloride dihydrate in an aqueous-acidic medium.
The desired end product is then recovered from its complex by precipitation of the calcium .with an organic or inorganic acid capable of forming an insoluble calcium salt, separation of the insoluble calcium salt, correction of pH to about 8 and isolation of the pyrazolotetracycline in form of base. Generally, the recovery of the end product occurs by treatment with oxalic acid, elimination of the calcium oxalate and isolation of the pyrazolotetracycline by adjustment of the pH to alkaline values (7.5÷9.0).
The isolation of the end product may also occur without using the calcium complex, by simple evaporation of the solvent and adjustment of the pH of the aqueous phase to about 8. The pyrazolotetracycline base may be converted to their acid addition salts by treatment with an inorganic or organic acid, for example with hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, methanesulfonic, p- toluenesulfonic or 2-naphthalenesulfonic acid.
The pyrazolotetracyclines of the present invention having the basic structure B can exist in three theoretical tautomeric forms I, I' and I" represented by the following structures:
Studies carried out by the applicant have shown that only the compounds of formula I are pharmacologically active and lead to satisfactory results.
The novel "tetracyclines of the present invention are useful as antibiotics which, in certain cases, exhibit better properties than those of the parent tetracyclines. More particularly, the M.I.C. of the compound of formula I (R = H, R' = dimethylamino) on Staphilococcus aureus ATCC 29737 is 0.4 mcg/ l, in respect of the value of 0.75 mcg/ml found for minocycline. Furthermore, these novel pyrazolotetracyclines possess a low toxicity, as the known, parent tetracyclines. For example, the DL_0 of pyrazolominocycline in rat is greater than 4000 g/Kg, in comparison with that of minocycline which, in the same conditions, is of 3300 mg/Kg. Therefore, the novel pyrazolotetracyclines of the present invention may be used as active ingredients of pharmaceutical compounds, in unit doses of from 50 to 500 mg of active ingredient to be administered one to four times daily.
The novel pyrazolotetracyclines of the present invention may be employed for the preparation of pharmaceutical compositions for oral use, for example in gelatin capsules, tablets, granulates, as such or with the common pharmaceutical carriers. Such pharmaceutical compositions contain the pyrazolotetracyclines of the present invention in an amount equivalent to 50÷500 mg of anhydrous pyrazolo tetracycline, the preferred active ingredient being pyrazolo minocycline or one of its pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates.
The following examples illustrate the invention without, however, limiting it.
