Description

SPECIFICATION Azetidinone derivatives The invention relates to azetidinone derivatives and to processes for their preparation.
The invention provides azetidinone derivatives of the general formula I and their isomers of the general formula II
wherein R represents an alkyl group; R' represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl, alkoxy, or hydroxyalkyl group, each of which has from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, the alcoholic function of the hydroxyalkyl'group being free or protected by a p.nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl group;X represents a group of the formula CH2Z or CH2Z' wherein Z represents a hydroxy, amino or carbamoyloxy group, or a group of the formula OR, or OCOR, wherein R, represents an alkyl group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms and Z' represents a mercapto or pyridinium group or a group of the formula SR3 wherein R3 represents an alkyl group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms or a 5methyl1 ,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl, l-methyl-l H-tetrazol-5-yl, 1,2,3triazol-5-yl or pyrazinyl group; and Y represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, a cyano or alkoxycarbonyl group or a group of the formula CH2Z wherein Z is as above defined. The 3-substituent may have the a- or ,B-configuration. 3a-substitution is preferred.
Preferred groups which R' may represent are methyl, ethyl, methoxy, 1 -hydroxy-ethyl and 1 (p.nitrobenzyloxycarbonyloxy)-ethyl groups.
The azetidinone derivatives according to the invention are useful as intermediates in the preparation of certain penem-carboxylic acids and esters which have a wide spectrum of antibacterial activity as well as a p-lactamase inhibiting activity (see British Patent Specification No. 2043639, from which this Application is divided). It should be pointed out that the stereo-chemistry at C4 of the compounds according to the invention is the same as in naturally occurring penicillins and cephalosporins.
The azetidinone derivatives of the general formulae I and II in which R, R' and Y are as above defined and X represents a group of the formula CH2Z in which Z is as above defined are hereinafter denoted as the azetidinone derivatives (3) and the azetidinone derivatives (4) respectively. The remaining azetidinone derivatives of the general formula I and II, that is those in which R, R' and Y are as above defined and X represents a group of the formula CH2Z' in which Z' is as above defined, are hereinafter denoted as the azetidinone derivatives (5) and the azetidinone derivatives (6) respectively.
The azetidinone derivatives (3) may be prepared by a process comprising condensing, in an inert solvent at elevated temperature, a penicillanic acid S-oxide ester of the general formula (2)
wherein R and R' are as above defined with an acetylenic compound of the general formula ZCH2C=CY wherein Y and Z are as above defined.
The azetidinone derivatives (4) may be prepared according to the above process with the additional step of isomerising the azetidinone derivative (3). This isomerization is preferably carried out in basic conditions.
The azetidinone derivatives (5) may be prepared by converting the substituent Z in an azetidinone derivative (3) prepared by the above process into a substituent Z' as above defined. The azetidinone derivatives (6) may be prepared by converting the substitutent Z in an azetidinone derivative (4) prepared by the above process into a substituent Z' as above defined or by isomerising an azetidinone derivative (5), preferably in basic conditions. The conversion of the substituent Z into a substituent Z' is necessary because of the difficulty of condensing the pencillanic acid S-oxide ester (2) directly with an acetylenic compound HSCH2-C=-CY, R3SCH2-C=-CY or PyCH2-C=-CY in which Py represents a pyridinium ion.
When R' represents a hydroxyalkyl group in the desired compound of the general formula I or II, the reaction sequence is preferably carried out with the alcoholic function protected.
All the processes described are within the scope of the invention. They are illustrated by the following reaction scheme.
The starting materials of the general formula (2) in which R' represents a hydrogen atom may be prepared from (5R)-6-aminopeniciííanic acid following known procedures (see FIGNARELLA et al., Journal of Organic Chemistry, 27,2668 and EVRARD et al., Nature, 201, 1124).
When R' represents a lower alkyl or hydroxyalkyl group, it can be introduced according to the procedure of Di Ninno et al., Journal of Organic Chemistry 42, 2960 (1977). When R' represents a lower alkoxy group, it may be introduced according to the procedures of Hauser et al., Helv. Chem.
Acta. 50, 1327 (1967) and Giddings et al., Tetrahedron Letters, 11, 995, (1978). Alternatively compounds of general formula (2) in which R' represents a hydrogen atom can be converted to compounds of the general formula (2) in which R' represents a lower alkyl or hydroxyalkyl group by introducing the substituent into the 6-position using a strong base, as illustrated in the following Examples. Compounds of the general formula (2) in which R' represents a lower alkyl or hydroxyalkyl group can also be prepared starting from a suitable ester of penicillanic acid S-oxide, as illustrated in the following Examples. The substitution at the 6-position is stereospecifically directed to the 6aderivatives.
The following Examples illustrate the invention.
