The present invention relates to eertain novel 2
alkoxy-7~-benzylideneamino-3-cephem-4-earbonyl)-s-
triazolo [4, 3-a]pyrid-3-ones and to a proeess for preparing
them by introducing an alkoxy group into the 7a-position of
the eorresponding 2-(7-benzylideneamino-3-eephem-4-
. earbonyl) - s -triazolo [ 4, 3 - a ]pyrid - 3 - one .
The eephalosporin derivatives referred to in this
speeifieation are named with referenee to cepham, which has
the structure:

~ O~` `
r' . [J, Amer Chem. Soc. 84 3400 (1962)] The term "cepham"
~` , refers to a compound in whieh the ring carbon atoms of this
strueture are all completely saturated; the corresponding
unsaturated compounds are designated by the term "eephem",
e. g. 3-cephem.
.
A number of methods is known for introducing an alkoxy
`~ group into the 7~-position of the cephem nucleus, including,
for e:~ample:
(a) diazotising 7-aminocephalosporanie aeid and then

eonverting the substituent at the 7-position to an alkoxy group,

(b) reacting a 7-benzylideneamino compound with a
dialkyl peroxide or the like, as described in Japanese Patent
Provisional Pubiication No, 42691/72;

(e) alkylthionating or fluorinating and acylating a 7-

(d) N-chlorinating the 7-acylamino group of a
eephalosporin derivative, converting the N-chlorinated group

.
Eaeh of these methods, however, gives rise to diffieulties
lS in praetice and alternative methods for the introduction of alkoxy
groups at the 7a-position of the cephem nucleus are eagerly
sought. We have now diseovered certain eephalosporin derivatives

Compounds of formulae(I) and (II) are novel compounds
and form part of the present invention.
.
Of the compounds of formula (I), and correspondingly
of the compounds of formula (II) from which they are prepared,
we prefer those compounds in which:
~, R represents a straight- or branched-chain alkyl
: group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms (such as a methyl,
ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, n~butyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl or t-butyl
group), or a halogen atom, e. g. chlorine, bromine or fluorine;
R represents an alkanoyl group having from 2 to 5
`.~ carbon atoms (such as an acetyl, propionyl, butyryl or pivaloyi
group)? an aroyl group having from 7 to 11 carbon atoms (such
as a benzoyl, toluoyl, xyloyl or naphthoyl group), an arylalkanol
group, preferably having 8 or 9 carbon atoms (such as a phenyl-
acetyl, phenoxyacetyl or phenylpropionyi group), an arylalkenoyl
; group, preferably having 8 or 9 carbon atoms tsuch as a cinnamoyl
group)9 a carbamoyl or N-(lower alkyl)-carbamoyl group, a
straight- or branched-chain alkyl group having from 1 to 4 carbon
atoms (such as a methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl,
sec-butyl or t-butyl group), a 5- or 6-membered aromatic
heterocyclic group having 1 or 2 nitrogen atoms and optionally
another hetero-atom, e. g. an oxygen or sulphur atom, [such as a
2-pyridyl, 2-(1, 3, 5-triazolo), pyrazol-3-yl, 1-methyltetrazol-5-yl

:: ~o~9s~
or 5-methyl-l, 3, 5-thiadia~ol-2-yl group] ;and
R, R, R and R, which are the same or different, are each a straight-
or branched-chain alkyl group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms
(such as a methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl,
sec-butyl or t-butyl group), an alkoxy group having from 1
to 4 carbon atoms (such as methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, n-butoxy
or t-butoxy group), a halogen atom (such as chlorine or bromine) ;
or an alkoxycarbonyl group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms in
the alkoxy moiety (such as a methoxycarbonyl, ethoxycarbonyl,
` 10 propoxycarbonyl, isopropoxycarbonyl, n-butoxycarbonyl or t-
butoxycarbonyl group).
~ ~ .
In the compounds of formula (I), R may be a straight-
or branched-chain lower alkoxy group having from 1 to 4
carbon atoms, such as methoxy~ ethoxy, propoxy, isopropoxy,
n-butoxy, isobutoxy, sec-butoxy or t-butoxy group.
Particularly preferred compounds of formula (I) and
(II) are those in which m is 0, R and R each represents a
lower alkyl group or a lower alkoxy group, R and R each
represents a hydrogen atom, n is 1, and Q represents a
methyl, (lower alkanoyl)-oxymethyl, azidometh~l or [l-(lower
alkyl)-tetrazol-5-yl]thiomethyl group In the compounds of

formula (I), R preferably represents a methoxy group Those
compounds in which R and R each represents a t-butoxy group
and Q represents a methyl, acetoxymethyl, azidomethyl or 1-
methyltetrazol-5-ylthiomethyl group are especially preferred.
` ' ' .,
; 5 The oxidising agent used in the process of the present
invention is a benzoquinone whose oxidising activity has been
enhanced by the presence of one or more electron-attacting
groups, preferred examples of which are: cyano groups;
halogen atoms, such as fluorine or chlorine; and nitro groups.
We particularly prefer to use benzoquinones having four electron-
attracting substituents, most preferably cyano groups and/or
halogen atoms.
The oxidising reaction will proceed to a sufficient extent
if the benzoquinone is used in a stoichiometric amount with respect
to compound (II). Use of a slight excess of benzoquinone will
still give good results, but we prefer not to use a large excess.
In general, the benzo~.uinone is used in an amount of from 1 to
1. 5 mols per mol of compound (II). The reaction temperature
is not particularly critical and, since the reaction proceeds
very smoothly, it is normally conducted at a temperature from
0 C to ambient temperature and is preferably conducted either
at ambient temperature without external temperature control or
,
,
.
O;, ,

~gs~ ,
by slight external cooling of the reaction mixture The time
required for the oxidatlon reaction may range from several
. minutes to scores of minutes;
.
.'
The oxidation reaction and the alkoxylation
6 reaction may be efIected essentially simultaneously in a
r single stage; alternatively, the reactions may be carried
out in two stages, the oxidation reaction being carried out
first, followed by the alko~ylation reaction. VVhere the
- ~ reactions are carried out in a single stage, compound (II)
` 10 is reacted with the benzoquinone in the presence of the lower
alkanol. In this case, the lower alkanol used for the alkoxylation
reaction may be empioyed as the reaction solvent. Alternatively,
` any inert organic solvent ~i. e. an organic solvent which is
inert to the reactants) may be employed in combination with the
lower alkanol. Examples of suitable organic solvents include:
aromatic hydrocarbons, such asbenzene, toluene or x-ylene;
ethers, such as dioxaneJ tetrahydrofuran or diethyl ether; and
halogenated hydrocarbons, such as chloroform and methylene
chloride .
2û Where the process of the invention is carried out in two
stages, compound (II) is first reacted with the benzoquinone in
an inert organic s olvent, such as those exemplified abo-,re, and
the reaction product is then reacted with the lower all~anol, either
'
. .
- ~ . ' ' , . ,

~95~
after isolation of the reaction product or without isolation.
In generalJ we prefer that the reaction should be carried out
in a single stage.
The lower al~anol used as the alkoxylating agent
preferably has from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, e. g. rnethanol,
ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, n-butanolJ isobutanol, or
sec-butanol. In generalj since the preferred 7~-alkoxy-
cephalosporin compounds are those having a methoxy group
at the 7~-positionJ methanol is the preferred lower alkanol.
,~ .
' 10 As in the oxidation reactionJ the reaction temperature
is not particularly critical and the reaction will normally be
conducted at a temperature from 0C to ambient temperature
- and preferably either at ambient temperature without any
. external temperature control or by slight external cooling of
the reaction mixture. The time required for the alkoxylation
reaction may range from several minutes to scores of minutes.
~'~ ` ' .
After completion of the reaction, the resulting compound
(I) is separated from the reaction medium by conventional
: proceduresJ e. g. by dlstilling off the solvent under reduced
pressure. The residue may then be purified by conventional
meansJ e. g. by recrystallisation or column chromatography.

In the above formulae, R, :R, R, R, ~, ~, Q,

by the process illustrated in the reaction scheme also
forms part of the present invention.
,
The debenzylidenation of the 7~x-alkoxy-7,~-benæylidene-
amino-3-cephem compound (I) is effected by contacting
compound (I) with hydrazine or with a hydrazine derivative
in a suitable inert solvent, and usually in the presence of an
acid catalyst. The nature of the inert solvent used in this
reaction is not critical and various inert organic solvents may
be used. Examples of such solvents include: lower alkanols,
such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, butanol,
isobutanol, pentanol and the like; aromatic hydrocarbons, such
as benzene, toluene, xylene and the like, halogenated hydrocarbons,
su~h as chloroform or methylene chloride, and dimethylformamide.
However, lower alkanols are normally preferred. Any acid normally
used for catalysing acid-catalysed reactions may be employed
in this reaction, but we prefer to use strong protonic acids,
for example inorganic acids (such as hydrochloride acid or
su~lphu~ic acid) and organic acids (such as_-toluenesulphonic acid,
trichloroacetic acid or trifluoroacetic acid). These acids may
17.
. . '' ' , . -
. .
' . .: ; - . , : .: , '

1(~49sa~!~
be used in the form of their ac;d addition salts with the hydrazine
or the hydrazine derivative, Apart from hydrazine itself,
it is also possible to use various substituted hydrazines capable
of reacting with benzaldehyde, for example hydrazine hydrate,
phenylhydrazine, 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine or a Girard
reagent (Girard P or Girard T). However, since it does not
require the presence of an acid and facilitates treatment after
reaction, a Gerard reagent is preferred. The reaction
temperature is not particularly critical and, for this reason,
the reaction is normally effected at ambient temperature;
however, the reaction will proceed evèn at higher or lower
temperatures. The time required for the reaction will vary,
depending mainly upon the natures of the starting material,
the hydra~ine reagent and the solvent, as well as the reaction
5 temperature; however, normally several tens of hours will
be required.
After completion of the reaction, the desired product
of formula (VII) may be recovered from the reaction medium
by conventional means. For example, where a Girard. reagent
;~ 20 is used, the reaction mixture is first extracted with a suitable
solvent (e. g. chloroform), the extract is washed with water
and dried with a suitable drying agent and then the solvent is
distilled off, giving the desired product. Alternatively, where the
.` 18-
- '

~LO~g59~
; reaction is carried out using 2, 4-dinitrophenylhydrazine and
~toluenesulphonic acid, the reaction mixture is first filtered,
the filtrate is concentrated by evaporation under reduced pressure
and is then evaporated to dryness; the residue is then washed with
ether, giving the ~-toluenesulphonate of the desired product.
This p-toluenesulphonate is treated with chloroform and an
aqueous solution of a weak base; the resulting organic layer is
separated and then the solvent evaporated off, giving the desired
product in crude form, This crude product may be further
.
~ ~ 10 purified by conventional means, e. g. column chromatography.
:, .
In the second step of the process illustrated in the above -
reaction scheme, the 7a-alkoxy-7,B~amino-3-cephem compound
(VII) is acylated. Prior art acylation processes require that
the carboxyl group at the 4-position of' the cephem nucleus should
be protected by esterification; however, in the process of the
present invention, the carboxyl group is already protected by a
specific i~nido group, i. e. the triazolopyridone group. We have
surprisingly found that this particular group affords good
` crystallinity, easy treatment after the reaction and a good yield
of the desired product at a high purity, compared with ester groups.
The reaction is carried out in the same way as in a conventional
acylation process, i. e by contacting compound (~TII) with an
acylating agent, e. g. a carboxylic acid or a reactive derivative
thereof, in a suitable solvent. We normally prefer to use.

as acylating agents acid halides (such as chlorides, bromides
or fluorides), acid azides, mixed anhydrides (such as mixed
anhydrides with alkyl esters of aliphatic acids or chlorocarbonic
, acid), acid anhydrides, active esters (such as the p-nitrophenyl
ester, the cyanomethyl ester or the phthalimido ester) or acid
, .
isoxazolium salts. If desired, the reactive derivative of the
carboxylic acid may be formed in situ from the acid and a
condensing agent and, in this case, a combination of the acid
' with a carbodiimide(e. g. N, N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide~
of the acid with a carbonyldiimide (e. g. carbonyldiimidazole
or carbonylditriazole) or of the acid with an alkoxyacetylene
(e. g. methoxyacètylene) is preferably employed. If asolvent
: i .
-~ is employed in the reaction, it should be inert to the reactants
'1 ~ and, provided this criterion is met, there is no limitation on
the nature of the solvent. Examples of silitable solvents include:
halogenated hydrocarbons, such as chloroform, methylene chloride,
` and ethylene chloride, di-(lower alkyl) ketones, such as acetone or
methyl ethyl ketone; acetic acid esters, such as ethyl acetate or
butyl acetate; ethers, such as diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran or
~! 20 dioxane; aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene or toluene;
,, ~ .
~ acetonitrile; or dimethylformamide The man skilled in the art
`~ may readily select the appropriate solvent for use with the

:, the preferred acylating agent and, in this case, we prefer that the
reaction should take place in the presence of an acid binding
agent. The acid binding agent is suitably an organic or
:`
inorganic base. Examples of inorganic bases are: alkali
:: 5 or alkaline earth metal compounds, such as the hydroxides
;` (e. g. sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, or calcium
hydroxide), the carbonates (e. g, sodium carbonate or potassium
carbonate) or the bicarbonates (e. g. sodium bicarbonate or
potassium bicarbonate). Examples of organic bases include,
,- I 10 for example: tertiary amines, e. g. triethylamine, tributylamine,
; dimethylaniline, N-methylpiperidine, N-methylmorpholine,
. ~ .
pyridine or quinoline. The reaction temperature is not
particularly critical and the reaction is, therefore, normally
effected at a temperature between about 0 C and ambient
temperature; however, the reaction will proceed at other
temperatures. The time required for the reaction depends mainly
upon the nature of the starting materials, the acylating agent
and the reaction temperature, but will normally vary from several
tens of minutes to several hours.
, ` .
When the reaction is complete, the desired ~roduct of
`` formula (VIII) may be recovered from the reaction mixture by
conventional means. For example, the reaction mixture is first

washed with water, the organic phase is separated and dried,
and the solvent is then distillecl off to give the desired product.
This product may be further purified by conventional purification
methods, e. g. column chromatography.
,
It is readily apparent from the above descriptlon that
each step of the process can be effected extremely smoothly
~mder mild conditions, giving the desired product in high yield.
After compound (VIII) has been produced, the protective triazolo-
pyridone group may very easily be removed.This may be effected by
contacting compound (VIII) with a metal salt of an organic acid, e~ g.
copper acetate, in a suitable solvent. The nat~re of the solvent iS nDTC/ jJ/`CQ
provided that it does not prevent the reaction; however, we
prefer to use a solvent capable of promoting contact between
compound (VIII) and the copper acetate. Such a solvent
preferably has a high polarity and a high sol~ating power for
the compound (VIII) and the copper acetate: preferred solvents
of this type are aqueous inert organic solvents. Examples of
inert organ;c solvents are: lower alkanols~ such as methanol,
ethanol, propanol and isopropanol: cyclic ethers, such as
dioxar.e and tetrahydrofuran; acetone: dimethylformamide:
and d;methylacetamide. The amount of copper acetate required
is stoichiometric for the reaction, but all excess does no harm
and we therefo~e normally prefer to use from 1 to 5 equ;valents
22.

`
~ss~ ,
. of copper acetate per mol of compound (VIII). The reaction
temperature is not particularly critical, but reaction at
:` relatively low temperatures gives better yield of the desired
.~
pro~ct with reduced danger of side reactions and, or this
reason, we prefer to effect the reaction at temperatures
between 0C and ambient temperature. The time required
for the reaction is usually several hours. After completion
! I
of the reaction, the desired cephalosporin antibiotic can be
recovered from the reaction mixture by conventional means.
For example, a water-immiscible solvent is added to the
reaction mixture, the resulting mixture is filtere~, the filtrate
is separated and the organic layer is collected. This organic
layer is washed with water and dried with a suitable drying
agent, after which the solvent is distilled off. The residue
may be purified by conventional means, e. g. column
chromatography.
