wherein R R and R are each a member selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, chloro, bromo, iodo, trifluoromethyl, phenyl, nitro, (lower) alkyl and (lower)- alkoxy but only one R group may represent phenyl; and nontoxic, pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.
The nontoxic, pharmaceutically acceptable salts include metallic salts such as sodium, potassium, calcium and aluminum, the ammonium salt and substituted ammonium salts, e.g. salts of such nontoxic amines as trialkylamines, including triethylamine, procaine, dibenzylamine, N- benzyl-beta-phenethylamine, l-ephenamine, N,N-dibenzylethylenediamine, dehydroabietylamine, N,N bis-dehydroabietylethylenediamine, N- (lower) alkylpiperidines, e.g. N-ethylpiperidine, N benzyldehydroa-bietylamine and other amines which have been used to form salts with benzylpenicillin.

wherein R represents (lower)alkyl;
wherein R is (lower)alkyl; and

The starting material used in the process of the present invention is the acid chloride having the formula wherein R and R have the meaning set forth above or its functional equivalent as an acylating agent for the basic amino group of hydroxylamine. Such equivalents include the corresponding carboxylic acid bromides, acid anhydrides and mixed anhydrides with other carboxylic acids, including monoesters, and particularly lower aliphatic esters, of carbonic acid. In addition, an acid azide or an active ester or thioester (e.g. with p-nitrophenol, thiophenol, thioacetic acid) may be used or the penicillin free acid itself may'be coupled with hydroxylamine by the use of a carbodiimide reagent [cf. Sheehan and Hess, J. Amer. Chem. Soc., 77, 1067 (1955)].
A preferred starting material is a mixed anhydride of a penicillin with another carboxylic acid, including a monoester, and particularly a lower aliphatic ester, of carbonic acid.
Another preferred starting material is the acid halide of a penicillin which may be obtained by any of the standard methods which are known for producing such acid halides such as by the reaction of the penicillin with a thionyl halide; see British Patent 758,653.
It is preferred to conduct the reaction of the penicillin with thionyl halide in the presence of a solvent such as methylene chloride. Other solvents may also be used which will not deleteriously affect the reaction or the penicillin acid halide produced by the reaction. Reagents other than thionyl halides which are known to react with a carboxyl group to produce the corresponding acid halide may also be used. Since the reaction of thionyl halide with penicillin results in the liberation of hydrogen halide, it is preferred to conduct the reaction in the pres ence of an approximately equimolar amount of hydrogen halide acceptor such as pyridine or another tertiary amine. The temperature at which the reaction to form the penicillin acid halide is conducted is not critical and will depend to a large extent upon the nature of the reagent used to form the acid halide. When the reagent is thionyl chloride, it is preferred to conduct the reaction at below 0 C., e.g. at between about -40 C. and about 0 C. The proportions of the reactants are not critical as long as the thionyl chloride is used in excess. It is preferred to use from about one to two moles of thionyl chloride per mole of penicillin. After the reaction has proceeded to completion, the penicillin acid halide may be diluted with anhydrous ether and recovered as a fiuffy solid product by evaporation of the solvents in vacuo at 30-40 C. Alternatively, if the subsequent reaction is to be conducted in methylene chloride, the acid halide need not be isolated.
The penicillin acid halide is then reacted with hydroxylamine. This reaction is preferably conducted in a nonreactive solvent such as methylene chloride. Although the temperature of the reaction is not critical, it is preferred to conduct this reaction at between about 40 C. and room temperature (i.e. about 25 C.). Also, the proportions of reactants are not critical. It is preferred to use an excess of hydroxylamine in order to insure completeness of the reaction and to secure optimum yields. Thus, from about one to three moles of hydroxylamine is generally used for each mole of penicillin acid halide.
After the reaction is complete, the solvent may be removed and the product recrystallized from a solvent to obtain the pure penicillan-3-hydroxamic acid.
Another method which may be used to obtain the compounds of the present invention involves the reaction of hydroxylamine with a mixed anhydride of the penicillin. The production of mixed anhydrides of carboxylic acids is known. Briefly, the acid is treated with enough base, such as triethylamine, to form the salt and then with a reagent such as an alkyl chlorocarbonate or an organo sulfonyl chloride to form the mixed anhydride. The following equations exemplify this reaction O OlCOzCzHs 4% II Rom OCOCzlls wherein R and R may be radicals as previously described; M is a cation such as potassium, sodium or the triethylamino radical; and Y represents an alkyl carbonate or an organo (preferably alkyl or aryl) sulfonyl group i.e., Y may be, for example, -COOCH CH soi-om or --SO CH The reaction is preferably conducted in the presence of a non-reactive solvent such as methylene chloride. The reaction conditions may vary widely and are not critical. Thus, the temperature may range from about -30 C. up to the reflux temperature of the solution. The proportions may also be varied widely. It is preferred to use from one to two moles of the anhydride forming reagent per mole of penicillin salt.
After the mixed anhydride of the penicillin has been prepared, it is reacted with 'hydroxylamine. It is preferred that the reaction be conducted in the presence of a solvent such as methylene chloride. The temperature at which the reaction is conducted may vary between about 40 C. and the reflux temperature of the solution. The proportions of reactants may also be varied widely. It is preferred that from about one-half to two moles of hydroxylamine per mole of the penicillin mixed anhydride be used. After the reaction is complete, pure penicillan-3-hydroxamic acid may be recovered by removal of the solvent and recrystallization of the product.
There is thus provided by the present invention a process of reacting an acid chloride of the formula 1?) /S\ /CH3 R N-H0H (JCH3 wherein R and 'R may be hydrogen, alkyl, aralkyl, acyl, carboa-lkoxy, canbobenzoxy, carboaryloxy, carbamyl, substituted carbamyl, arylsul'fonyl or alkylsulfonyl or the functional equivalent of said acid chloride as an acylating agent with hydroxylamine to produce a penicillan-3-hydroxamic acid of the formula NHOH or a nontoxic pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. More specifically, there is provided by the present invention a process of reacting in an inert solvent at about 40 C. to 30 C. about 0.3-2.0 moles (per mole of hydroxylamine) of an acid chloride of the formula wherein R and R may be hydrogen, alkyl, aralkyl, acyl, carboalkoxy, carbobenzoxy, carboaryloxy, cahbamyl, substituted carbarnyl, arylsul'fonyl or alkylsul fonyl or the functional equivalent of said acid chloride as' an acylating agent with hydroxylam'ine to produce a penicillan-3-hydroxamic acid of the formula or a nontoxic pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
A preferred embodiment of the present invention is the process of reacting a penicillin acid chloride or its functional equivalent as an acylatin'g agent wit-h hydroxylamine to produce the corresponding penicillan-3-hydroxamic acid or a nontoxic pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
The compounds of the present invention are useful as nutritional supplements in animal feeds and as agents for the treatment of mastitis in cattle.
