(54) T-BUTYL DERIVATIVES OF 5-HYDROXY TETRACYCLINE AND A PROCESS FOR PREPARING THE SAME (71) We, PLIVA PHARMACEUTICAL AND CHEMICAL WORKS, of Ive Lole Ribara 89, Zagreb, Yugoslavia, a Yugoslavian Body Corporate, do hereby declare the invention, for which we pray that a patent may be granted to us, and the method by which it is to be performed, to be particularly described in and by the following statement:- The present invention relates to derivatives of 5-hydroxy-tetracycline and is concerned particularly, but not exclusively, with certain t-butyl derivatives thereof, namely N2-t-butyl-6-demethyl-6-deoxy-6-methylene.5-hydroxy tetracycline (which is referred to in the following description as N2-t-butyl-6- methylene-5-hydroxy-tetracycline) and N2-t-butyl-6-deoxy-5-hydroxy- tetracycline. These t-butyl derivatives are new compounds in the series of 5hydroxy-tetracyclines and have anti-microbial activity. The present invention also relates to the preparation of 6-deoxy-5-hydroxy-tetracycline, as well as to processes for preparing these various 5-hydroxytetracycline derivatives.
It is known that N2-alkyl derivatives of anhydrotetracycline, anhydrooxytetracycline and anhydrochlorotetracycline can be prepared by the condensation of olefines or tertiary alcohols on the nitrile group of the corresponding tetracyclines (British Patent Specifications 800,699 and 808,702; U.S. Patent Specification 3,028,409).
It is also known from our copending Patent Application No. 13428/78 (Serial No. 1571765) that N2-t-butyl-lla-halo-6-methylene-tetracyclines can be prepared by reaction of the corresponding 1 la-halo-6-methylene-tetracycline nitriles with tbutanol. These products are tetracycline derivatives of the formula:
These products are tetracycline derivatives wherein R represents a hydrogen atom or a hydroxy group and X represents a chlorine or bromine atom.
It has now been found that N2-t-butyl-6-methylene-5-hydroxy-tetracycline (II) can be obtained by the dehalogenation of N2-t-butyl-l la-halo-6-methylene-5hydroxy-tetracycline (I) and that the product (II) can be catalytically reduced to N2-t-butyl-6-deoxy-5-hydroxy-tetracycline (III).
These two processes are illustrated by the following scheme:
CH2 OH NICH32 XOH CONHCICH3)3 I OH 0X dehologenation CH2 OH N ICH3)2 < CONH CI CH 11 OH O OH O + hydrogenation CH3 OH NICH3)2 AXCISCONHCI CH3 111 OH O OH O X=(I,llr According to one aspect of the present invention, therefore, the dehalogenation of N2-t-butyl-l la-halo-6-methylene-5-hydroxy-tetracycline (1) is carried out electrochemically or chemically. 'Electrochemical dehalogenation is carried out, in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the invention, by operating at ambient temperature in an electrolytic cell having a metal or graphite cathode, using a controlled cathode potential or at constant current.
According to another aspect of the invention, dehalogenation is carried out by means of a chemical reducing agent, preferably triphenylphosphine.
The resultant N2-t-butyl-6-methylene-5-hydroxy-tetracycline from any of these dehalogenation procedures can be isolated and recrystallized by usual methods or reduction to N2-t-butyl-6-deoxy-5-hydroxy-tetracycline (111) can be carried out in the reaction solution after completion of the dehalogenation.
Reduction of the exocyclic methylene group can be effected under conditions suitable either for homogeneous or heterogeneous catalysis. According to the first method, the reduction is preferably effected in solution, at a temperature of 50 to 80"C and under a hydrogen pressure of 5 to 75 atmospheres, by the addition of rhodium trichloride and triphenylphosphine (preferably 1:5), which in situ form a soluble complex, whereas according to the second method 5% to 10% by weight rhodium on charcoal and triphenylphosphine are used as a catalyst. In both cases, the alpha-isomer of N2-t-butyl-6-deoxy-5-hydroxy- tetracycline is preferentially formed. However, in the second case, the hydrogenation is desirably carried out at elevated temperature (up to 80 C), e.g.
at 50 to 700 C, and under a hydrogen pressure of 3.5 to 75 atmospheres, e.g. 3.5 to 50 atmospheres. Depending on the pressure and temperature employed, the reduction step is continued for 4 to 24 hours.
After hydrogenation has been completed, the reaction solution may be filtered, the filtrate evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure and alpha-N2-tbutyl-6-deoxy-5-hydroxy-tetracycline isolated from the residue. By thin-layer chromatography (stationary phase: silica gel in a 5% solution of the sodium salt of EDTA, pH 7.5; mobile phase: acetone-ethyl acetate-water 8:4:1.2) it has been ascertained that, by the reduction, the alpha-isomer of N2-t-butyl-6-deoxy-5hydroxy-tetracycline is formed nearly quantitatively, whereas the beta-isomer is present only in traces.
The structure of the new compounds has been confirmed by IR-, UV- and NMR-spectra and also by carrying out certain chemical reactions. For instance, by hydrolysis of the butyl group of N2-t-butyl-6-deoxy-5-hydroxy-tetracycline by means of strong mineral acids, 6-deoxy-5-hydroxy-tetracycline can be obtained.
The IR-spectrum of the starting material, N2-t-butyl-l la-halo-6-methylene-5hydroxy-tetracycline, is characterized by absorption at 3.38u, which corresponds to the C-H-vibrations, and by a very strong band at 5.7,u, typical of the C12- ketones of tetracycline. In the dehalogenated product, i.e. N2-t-butyl-6methylene-5-hydroxy-tetracycline, the band at 5.7,u is no longer present.
The UV-spectrum of N2-t-butyl-6-methylene5-hydroxy-tetracycline is characterized by a broad maximum at 250 nm, which is typical of 6-methylenetetracyclines, and a maximum at 342 nm, which excludes the possibility of formation of anhydro derivatives. The NMR-spectra of the new compounds exhibit a distinctive band at 1.53b, which designates the presence of the t-butyl group.
In vitro testing of the new compounds shows high anti-microbial activity against certain microorganisms. Table I below shows results obtained by determination of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against a number of microorganisms. The tests were carried out by the series dilution method (Reihenverdiinnung) on a nutrient substrate. From the Table, it can be seen that the activity in vitro of the new compounds, that is, compounds numbered 2 and 3, on some microorganisms is on a level with that of the corresponding starting substances, that is, substances numbered 1 and 4, respectively, whereas against some others (e.g. Staph. epidermidis and B.cereus var. myc.) a higher activity is exhibited.

A reference electrode (SCE) was leant against the mercury surface and dehalogenation was carried out under stirring, at a controlled potential of -0.40 V vs. SCE, until it could be ascertained polarographically that the band which corresponds to the presence of chlorine at the position 1 lea was missing. The dehalogenated solution was evaporated under reduced pressure to a dry residue. By re-crystallisation from i-propanol N2-t-butyl6-methylene-5-hydroxy-tetracycline was obtained.
