  • the invention relates to compounds bearing a quinolone core structure which exhibit antibacterial activity, methods for their preparation, as well as pharmaceutically acceptable compositions comprising such compounds.
  • Antibacterial resistance is a global clinical and public health problem that has emerged with alarming rapidity in recent years. Resistance is a problem in the community as well as in health care settings, where transmission of bacteria is greatly amplified. Because multiple drug resistance is a growing problem, physicians are now confronted with infections for which there is no effective therapy. The morbidity, mortality, and financial costs of such infections pose an increasing burden for health care systems worldwide. As a result, alternative and improved agents are needed for the treatment of bacterial infections, particularly for the treatment of infections caused by resistant strains of bacteria.

Description

QUINO ONE ANTIBACTERIAL AGENTS
FIELD OF THE INVENTION The invention relates to compounds bearing a quinolone core structure which exhibit antibacterial activity, methods for their preparation, as well as pharmaceutically acceptable compositions comprising such compounds.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Antibacterial resistance is a global clinical and public health problem that has emerged with alarming rapidity in recent years. Resistance is a problem in the community as well as in health care settings, where transmission of bacteria is greatly amplified. Because multiple drug resistance is a growing problem, physicians are now confronted with infections for which there is no effective therapy. The morbidity, mortality, and financial costs of such infections pose an increasing burden for health care systems worldwide. As a result, alternative and improved agents are needed for the treatment of bacterial infections, particularly for the treatment of infections caused by resistant strains of bacteria.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Reference will now be made in detail to presently preferred compositions or embodiments and methods of the invention, which constitute the best modes of practicing the invention presently known to the inventors.
The term "alkyl" as used herein refers to a linear or branched hydrocarbon of from 1 to 6 carbon atoms and includes, for example, methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, sec-butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl, n-pentyl, n-hexyl, and the like. The alkyl group can also be substituted with one or more of the substituents selected from lower (Cχ-C())alkoxy, (Cj-C^thioalkoxy, halogen, aryl, heteroaryl, oxo, thio, -OH, -SH, -F, -CF ,- OCF3, -NO2, -CO2H, -CO2(Cι -C6)alkyl, or — O,
— o >
The term "(C3-C6)cycloalkyl" means a hydrocarbon ring containing from 3 to 6 carbon atoms, for example, cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, or cyclohexyl. Where possible, the cycloalkyl group may contain double bonds, for example, 3-cyclohexen-l-yl. The cycloalkyl ring may be unsubstituted or substituted by one or more substituents selected from alkyl, alkoxy, thioalkoxy, hydroxy, thiol, halogen, for yl, carboxyl, -CO2(Ci -C^alkyl, -CO(Cχ-C6)alkyl, aryl, heteroaryl, wherein alkyl, aryl, and heteroaryl are as defined herein, or as indicated above for alkyl. Examples of substituted cycloalkyl groups include fluorocyclopropyl.
The term "halo" includes chlorine, fluorine, bromine, and iodine.

In some cases, to prepare the compounds of the invention disclosed herein, protecting groups may have been used to allow synthetic manipulation of one functional group in the presence of other functional groups. The appropriate use and choice of protecting groups is well-known by one skilled in the art. It is also to be understood that such groups not only serve to protect chemically reactive sites, but also to enhance solubility or otherwise change physical properties. A good general reference for protecting group preparation and deprotection is Greene, Theodora, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis; Wiley: New York, USA, 1991 and later editions. Thus, it is to be further understood that invention compounds characterized by the presence of a protecting group as disclosed and described in Greene are also to be considered invention compounds.

C. Coupling of C-7 Sidechain and Quinolone Core Precurors to Provide Invention Compounds
Coupling of the sidechain precursor to the quinolone core precursor to provide the compounds of the present invention or precursors to compounds of the present invetnion can occur from either the core precursor as the free acid, alkyl ester, or borate ester, as depicted in Scheme II. Scheme II
Figure imgf000095_0001
Typically, when a free acid is used in the coupling reaction, a molar excess of the side chain precursor is combined with the quinolone core in a polar solvent such as acetonitrile. A molar excess of an amine base such as triethylamine is added, and the reaction mixture is heated to about 80 °C. Typically, the reaction mixtures becomps homogenous. The mixture is heated for sufficient time to drive the raction to completion, typically from about 3 to about 12 hours. The mixture is then worked up according to procedures widely uused by the skilled artisan to provide a compound of the invention.
When an alkyl ester is used in the coupling reaction, the quinolone core, sidechain, and triethylamine are combined in a solvent such as acetonitrile. The resulting reaction mixture is heated to 80 °C and stirred for 12 hours, is heated to about 80 °C. Typically, the reaction mixtures becomes homogenous. The mixture is heated for sufficient time to drive the raction to completion, typically from about 3 to about 12 hours. The mixture is then worked up according to procedures widely uused by the skilled artisan to provide a compound of the invention. When a borate ester is used in the coupling reaction, the requisite borate ester is typically prepared from the free acid upon reaction with BF3 according to conditions available to the skilled artisan. The borate ester is typically combined with the side chain in a solvent such as acetonitrile and treated with an amine base such as triethylamine. The resulting reaction mixture is typically stirred at room temperature for sufficient time to drive the reaction to completion, typically from about 24 to about 96 hours. The mixture is then worked up according to procedures widely used by the skilled artisan (i.e., deprotection of the borate ester in ethanol in the presence of triethylamine) to provide a compound of the invention.
D. Post-Coupling Transformations
Coupling of the sidechain precursors to the quinolone core precursors may give rise to invention compounds. Alternatively, post-coupling transformations may be necessary to give rise to invention compounds. Typical post-coupling transformation include deprotection of protected amines to provide invention compounds of formula TJ, as depicted in Scheme IH. Deprotection, as well as reaction with acrylonitrile or the like, gives rise to invention compounds of formulas III and IV.

In preparing solutions, the compound can be dissolved in water for injection and filter sterilized before filling into a suitable vial or ampoule and sealing. Advantageously, agents such as a local anesthetic preservative and buffering agents can be dissolved in the vehicle. To enhance the stability, the composition can be frozen after filling into the vial and the water removed under vacuum. The dry lyophilized powder is then sealed in the vial and an accompanying vial of water for injection may be supplied to reconstitute the liquid prior to use.
