Description

_ 2 -
One oP the greatest difficulties when manufacturing
cephalosporins and penicillins lies in finding conditions
which are as gentle as possible for the coupling of the
cephem or penam body with an acid component at the 7- or,
respectively, 6-amino group. For example, slight rises
in the temperature during the reaction, or alkaline or acid
reaction media result in a rapid degradation of the ~-lactam
or effect profound changes in the acid component to be
coupled.
The prior necessary activation of the acid component
is also freguently associated with not inconsiderable
stresses on the molecule, and for this reason it is fre-
quently neces~ary to make even greater efforts to find
optimum, gentle reaction conditions: thus, German Offen-
legungsschrift 2,265,235 indicates a specific process by
means of which 2-alkoximinoaryl-acetic acids are converted
to the acid chlorides without the undesired isomerization of
the syn- to the anti-alkoximino compound, which proceeds
very easily in acids, taking place.
Because of their instability, the active intermediate
stages can also present problems.
Thus, in German Offenlegungsschrift 2,540,37~, a
process for the manu~acture of cefazolin is described in
which tetrazolylacetic acid is converted to the acid chloride,
which, because of its low stability, is appropriately
immediately reacted in situ. In a case of this type,
control over the extent of activation is made more difficult.

s As is generally krlown from peptide chemistry, but
! especially from the investigations on the preparation of,
for example, ampicillin (Doyle et al. J Chem. Soc. 1962,
0), cephaloglycin (Kurita et al. J. Antibiot. 19, 243
(1966), Spencer et al. 3. Med. (,hem. 9, 746 (1966)), or
I cephalexin (Ryan et al~ J. Med. Chem. 12, 310 (1969)), the
¦ problem o~ racemi~ation at the ~-C atom always arises when
linklng the activated and N-prot;ected phenylglycine with the
! corresponding ~-lactam (in this context compare Flynn,
l 10 Cephalosporins and Penicillins, Academic Press, New York,
¦ 1972, page ~6).
In the abovementioned cases, and also in many other
cases, efforts must be made to obtain highly reactive inter-
mediate stages, such as acid anhydrides or acid chlorides,
for activation. Under certain circumstances, it is
therefore necessary to protect any reactive groups which may
be present in the acid molecule before activating the said
molecule, in order to excIùde undesired intra- or inter-
molecular adverse reaction.
The activation of a number of 2-aminothiazolylacetic
acids and the subsequent coupling thereof with 7-amino-
cephem derivatives is described in German Offenlegungsschrift
2,556,736, the 2-amino group being blocked by easily detach-
able protective groups, using processes which in some cases
are involved, prior to the activation and being set free
agaîn only after coupling has taken place. Considerable
losses arise with this process.

In French Patent Specification 7,601,~3~, a process E
is described which links 2-tritylaminothiazolylacetic acid
derivatives with 7-aminocephalosporanic acid and subsequently
detaches the protective group, as tritylcarbinol, under acid
conditions.
The introduction of such prot0ctive groups, and the
detaching thereof after the coupling reaction has ended, is
generally associated with not inconsiderable substance losses
(see above), further stress on the acylating component and
on the acylation product and also a not inconsiderable
expenditure of time and effort.
In many cases it is also necessary to bring the
product into which the protective group is converted on
detaching, after isolation of the said product, into a form
in which it can be used again as a protective group reagent
and thus can be fed back into the process.
However, detaching of the protective group is fre-
quently associated with the irreversible loss thereof.
The purity of the desired substance in general
suffers so greatly during the manipulations carried out to
introduce and detach any protective groups that increased
efforts have to be made to purify the product.
It has now been found that the difficulties des-
cribed can be avoided, and cephalosporins and penicillins
can be obtained in high yield and purity by acylation of 6_
amino-penam and 7-amino-cephem derivatives, by converting the
acyla~ing component to an active derivative using an option-

benzotriazole II within a relatively wide temperature range
with a carbodiimide, dissol~ed in a suitable solvent or in
bulk.
The benzotriazole of the formula II can be employed
in approximately equivalent amounts, but preferably in an

excess of, for example, about 0.2 to 1 mole or more.
The progress of ~he reaction can be followed in a
manner which is in itself known, thus, for example, by thin
layer chromatography or high pressure liquid chromatography
or by nuclear magnetic resonance or infrared spectroscopy.
The activated carboxylic acids of the formula XI
can, if desired, be isolated by methods which in themselves
are generally known, such as extraction, precipitation or
fractional crystallization. In many cases, the reaction
solutions obtained from the manufacture of these acids can
also be reacted furtHer direct in the sense of the process
according to the invention, if necessary after removal of
the urea formed as the reaction product.
The activated carboxylic acids can be in two forms,
that of the "activated ester" of the general formula XI a
and that of the "activated amide" of the general formula
XI b, which in solution obviously are in equilibrium.
In the solid state, it is generally the l'activated
ester" of the general formula XI a which is present.
Depending on the substance, however, the "activated ester"
and the "activated amide" can also be isolated separately.
The isolation of the "activated ester" and of the
"activated amide" from the reaction medium and their separa-
tion can be carried out by methods which are in themselves
known and which are based, for example, on the differing
solubilities of the two products or on the differing
polarities or crystallinities of the two products:

Thus, for example, the activated ester of ~-syn-
methoximino~ 2-amino-thiazol-4-yl)-acetic acid can be
separated from the corresponding amide by fractlonal
precipitation from dimethylformamide solution by the addi-
s tion of water. Separation by chromatography, such as,for example, on silica gel, can also prove expedient.
If an amine, such as, for example, compounds of the
formula III or IV, is reacted w~th the "activated ester" of
the formula XI a or with the "activated amide" of the
formula XI b, the products obtained in both cases are iden-
-tical.
As a rule, however, neither the isolation of the
activated carboxylic acid nor separation into the "acti~ated
ester" and the "activated amide" is necessary for the pro-
cess according to the invention.
In the present text, therefore, an "activatedcarboxylic acid" is understood as meaning the product, in
the sense of the process according to;the invention, of the
reaction between a carboxylic acid of the formula I and an
: 20 optionally substituted l-hydroxy-ben~otria~ole of the formula
II~ independently of whether the said product is in one o~
the two pure forms - "activated ester" XI a or "activated
amide" XI b - or is a mixture of the two.
Suitable solvents are the solvents or solvent mix-
tures customary in penicillin and cephalosporin chemistry,such as, for example, dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide,
diethyl ether, di-isopropyl ether, tetrahydro~uran, dioxane,
carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, methylene chloride, aceto-

nitrile, ethyl acetate, acetone or butanone.
Preferred solvents are dimethylformamide, tetra-
hydrofuran, methylene chloride, acetoni~rile and ethyl ace-
tate, and also mixtures thereof.
The only factor which must be taken into account is
that the solvent does not enter into reaction with the
reactanks, as is the case, for example, with solvents con-
taining hydroxyl groups, such as, for example, H20.
However, activations have already also successfully
been carried out employing acids which contained lower
alkanols~ such as methanol or ethanol, bonded in the form of
; adducts and/or contained an alcoholic hydroxyl group in the
: molecule.
In this case it is necessary merely to ensure that
no bases are present which result in a reaction, which is
undesired in the sense of the process according to the
invention, between the activated acid and the alcohol (in
this context compare Ikoh et al., Synthesis 1975, 456~.
The reaction temperature ~or the rsaction of the
carboxylic acid with the optionally substituted l-hydroxy-
ben~otr~a~ole is advantageously between about -20 and about
+60C, preferably from -10 to ~40 and especially between 0
and 25 C.
The reaction time is in general between about 10
minutes and about 24 hours and preferably in the range of 1
to 4 hours.

The carbodiimides known from peptide chemistry and
from penicillin and cephalosporin chemistry, especially N,N'-
dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and N,N~-diisopropylcarbodiimide,
are particularly suitable for use as the carbodiimides which
are preferably employed as dehydrating agents.
The urea formed from the carbodiimide during the
activation can be separated off, particularly if it is
intended subsequently to isolate the activated carboxylic
acid. However, it is also possible, without disad~antage,
to dispense with the separation and to carry out the sub-
sequent reaction with the 6-amino-penam derivative or 7-
amino-cephem derivative in the presence of this urea.
The reaction of the activated carboxylic acid with
6-amino-penam or 7-amino-cephem derivatives can be carried
out under variable experimental conditions. Thus, for
example, it is possible to add the activated carboxylic acid
either in bulk or, after isolation thereof, as a solution or
suspension in a suitable solvent to a solution of the 6-
amino-penam or 7-amino-cephem derivative. However, it is
also possible to combine either the solution of the activa-
ted carboxylic acid which has been freed from the urea
formed from the carbodiimide or the solution of the activa-
ted carboxylic acid which still contains this urea with a
solution of the 6-amino-penam or 7-amino-cephem derivative.
Suitable sol~ents for the acylation reaction are,
above all, the solvents or solvent mixtures customary in
penicillin and cephalosporin chemistry.
Thus, t;he reaction can, for example, be carried out

in amides, such as, preferably, dime~hylformamide or
dimethylacetamide, in ether~, such as, preferably, di-iso-
:
propyl ether, diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran and dioxane,
in chlorinated hydrocarbons, such as, preferably, carbon
tetrachloride, chloroform and CH Cl , in nitriles, such as,
preferably, acetonitrile, in esters, such as, preferably,
ethyl acetate, or in ketones, such as, pre~erably, acetone
and butanone.
However, it is also poss~ble to use mixtures of
these solvents.
Particularly preferred solvents are dimethylform~
amide, tetrahydrofuran, methylene chloride, acetonitrile and
ethyl acetate, as well as mixtures thereof.
The finding that it is not necessary to take any
special meaSures in order to carry out the reaction under
completely anhydrous conditions was surprising. The
slight water content of the commercially available solvents
does not have an adverse effect on the reaction. The
presence of impurities o~ other solvents containing hydroxyl
groups, such as low-molecular alkanols, Por example methanol
or ethanol, also does not impair the reàction
If the reaction is to proceed well, lt is approp-
riate to employ the 6-amino-penam or 7-amino-cephem deriva-
tives in solution. An addition of organic bases,
especially of tertiary amines, such as, for example, tri-
` methylamine, triethylamine, tri-n-butylamine, N,N-dimethyl-
aniline or N-methylmorpholine, has proved suitable for
effecting dissolution of the derivatives in the above-

mentioned solvents and solvent mixtures. The bases are
generally added in at least stoichiometric amounts. An
"
excess of base of, for example, about 0.1 to about 2.0 and
especially 0.2 to 0.~ mole can be advantageous for the
: . .
reaction.
Esters Or 6-amino-penam and 7-amino-cephem acids can
also be employed in the reaction. Easily detachable
esters are preferably used, such as, for example, the benzyl,
methyl, pi~aloyloxymethyl, benzhydryl, 2,2,2_trichloroethyl
or tert.-butyl esters or a tri-alkylsilyl ester, especially
the trimethylsilyl ester. The advantage, above all of
the last-mentioned trialkylsilyl esters, such as, for
example, of the trimethylsilyl ester, lies in the fact that
it is detached easily, detaching frequently already taking
place during working up of the rsaction product.
In order to obtain high yields, the acti~ated car-
- boxylic acids are employed in at least stoichiometric
amounts. An excess of about 5 to 25% can prove approp-
riate.
The time taken for the reaction between the activa-
ted carboxylic acid and the 6-amino-penam or 7-amino-cephem
derivative is in general between about ~ hour and 25 hours,
preferably between 2 and 16 hours. a
The reaction can be carried out in a wide tempera-
ture range, for example between about -20 and +60C, but
appropriately a temperature of 40C should not be exceeded.
The reaction temperature is preferably between 0 and ~25C.

The compounds of th~ formulae V or VI can be iso-
lated from the reaction medium by method~ which are in them-
selves known and which depend on the solubilities of the
resulting compounds.
; 5 Thus, for example, the reaction products can be taken
up in water9 after evaporating off the organic solvent if
necessary, and, after appropriate purification operations,
such as, for example, filtering or centrifuging, precipitated
-~ by adding acids. In order to remove the hydroxybenzo-
triazole formed during the reaction, the product is approp-
riately stirred in a suitable solvent, such as, ~or example,
~ methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol or acetone. I
; If desired, the hydroxybenzotriazole can also be
extracted at a pH between about 5.O and 3.5 from the aqueous
solution of the reaction product in a water-immiscible
organic solvent, for example ethyl acetate or methyl iso-
butyl ketone. The hydroxybenzotriazole employed in the
reaction is recovered by evaporating off the solvent.
Subsequent further acidification precipitates the
products of the formula Y or VI in the form of their free
acids.
They can be obtained by filtration,or, if desired,
extracted in water-immiscible organic solvents, such as, for
example, ethyl acetate or methyl isobutyl ketone.
The resulting products of the formula V or VI can be
obtained from the extracts, for example by evaporating off
the solvent and grinding with ether.

Preparative separation by chromatography can also be
expedient.
Esters which are obtained from the reaction accord-
ing to the lnvention and in which the ester group has
protective group for the carboxyl group, such as, for
- example, p-methoxybenzyl, p-nitrobenzyl or tert.-butyl, can
be separated off from optionally substituted l-hydroxy-benzo-
triazole by conventional experilmental methods which depend
on the solubility, the crystallinity or the extractability
of the esters. If desired, they can then be converted to
the free carboxylic acids or to salts thereof in a manner
known from the literature.
; The process according to the invention is thus dis-
~inguished by the fact that it leads, under very mild reac-
tion conditions, to extremely reactive carboxylic acid
derivatives, and it is thus possible to convert both highly
sensitive carboxylic acids and also carboxylic acids which
- are difficult to activate because of steric or electronic
effects into highly reactive acylating reagents.
Thus, surprisingly, with some of the active carboxylic
acid derivatives manufactured by the process according to
the invention, for example with the reaction product of 1-
hydroxy-benzotriazoleand ~-(2-aminothiazol-~-yl)-~-syn-
methoximino-acetic acid, the transfer of the acyl component
to 6-amino-penam or 7-amino-cephem derivatives proceeds
successfully; this transfer does not take place whèn the

amino-thiaæol-4-yl)~ syn-methoximino-acetoxy]-succinimide,
is used, even when more vigorous reaction condltions are
employed, such as a prolonged reaction time and ele~ated
temperature.
The finding tha~, when the activation is carried out
in the sense of the process according to the invention, an
amino protective group is not required in the case of those
amino-substituted carboxylic acids in which the amino group
has a PKS value of less than 6.o was also surprising: khe
lo abovementioned negative aspects of the use of a protective
group, such as additional synthesis steps, additional stress
on the molecule, the reduction in yield, the longer time
expended, the higher expenditure on purification and the
- reactivation of the protective group reagent are therefore
eliminated completely with the process according to the
invention.
; Hydroxyl groups are also surprisingly not attacked by
the carboxylic acids activated with optionally substituted
l-hydroxybenzotriazoles, although according to Mc Carthy et
al., J. Chem. Soc. Perkin II 1977, 224 the reactivity of the
~aid acids can be compared with that of anhydrides.
This also applies in the case of alcoholic hydroxyl

groups: It is, therefore, surprisingly also possible
successfully to activate, in the sense of the process
according to the invention, those carboxylic acids which con-
tain alkanols bonded in an adduct-type manner in the crystal
or which are otherwise contaminated with these alkanols.
French Patent Specification 7,601,~34 describes a
process in which ~-[2-tritylamino-thiazol-4-yl]-~-syn-
methoximino-acetic acid is converted to its symmetrical

anhydride and coupled with 7-amlno-cephalosporanic acid
utilizing theoretically only at.most half of the carboxylic
acid employed.
Compared with this process, the process according to
the invention is distinguished, on the one hand, by the fact
that, as stated above, an amino protective group is not
required for the acid and, on the other hand; by the fact
that the unavoidable loss of ha:Lf of the carboxylic acid is
avoided.
The activated derivatives XI a and/or XI b obtained
from the reaction of optionally substituted l-hydroxybenzo-
triazoles of the formula II w~th a carboxylic acid of the
: formula I are very valuable for the syntheses of penicillins
. and cephalosporins because, as stated in de~ail above, they
are formed, inter alia, as highly reactive compounds under
very mild conditions, because their manufacture, handling
and reaction is extremely problem-free, because they react
with penicillins and cephalosporins in the des~red manner
under very mild conditlons and because they render a protec-
tive group superfluous in the case Or weakly basic aminogroups and in the case of hydroxyl groups.
The following Examples illustrate the invention,
without, however, restricting it thereto.
