The compounds of this invention represented by the
formula (I) prepared as described above can form pharmaceutical-
ly acceptable salts with acids when the compound of the formula
(I) has a basic group, and this invention also includes within
its scope such pharmaceutically acceptable salts. The pharma-
ceutically acceptable acids which can be used for the salt forma-
tion can be various organic or inorganic acids, for example,
hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, hydrobromic acid,
phosphoric acid, acetic acid, oxalic acid malonic acid, succinic
acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, malic acid, mandelic acid, eth-
anesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid and the like.
The benzoheterocyclic compounds of the Lormula (I) can
be converted into a corresponding carboxylate by reacting the

1 The compounds o~ this invcntion of the formula (I)

and the salts thereof exhibit excellent antimicrobial activity
broadly on gram positive and negative bacteria at low concentra-
tions. They are useful compounds which show particularly
potent antibacterial activity on Streptococcus, Pseudomonas,
Enterobacter, etc. on which conventional synthetic antibacterial
agents are not effective or only slightly effective. In add-
ition, they show a high antibacterial activity on coliform

bacilli, staphylococci, etc. which are major causes of infec-
tions diseases and are also effective on Serratia, Krebsiella,

etc. which also cause infectious diseases that have recently
attracted wide attention of many workers in the field, and there-
fore they are very useful clinically.
As stated above, the compounds of this invention are
advantageous not only because they are characterized by a broad
antimicrobial spectrum and potent activity, but also because
they show no decrease in antimicrobial activity but rather show
a tendency of an increase in such activity even in the presence

of a serum. This phenomenon is surprising to one skilled in the
art since it is hitherto observed that conventional pharmaceuti-


cals having antimicrobial activity show decreased activity inthe presence of a serum. This strongly suggests that the com-
pound of this invention can exhibit potent antimicrobial acitiv-
ity in the blood.
The oral toxicity of the compounds of this invention
is by far low as compared with effective oral dosage thereof.
The compounds of this invention have excellent anit-
microbial activity on those bacteria which are resistant or have

acquired resistance to conventional antibiotics such as penicil-

3 lin, cephalosporin, ampicillin, streptomycin, erythromycin,

The compounds of this invention represented by the
formula (I) can be converted into penicillanic acid derivatives
represented by the formula ~XIV) below which exhibit excellent
antimicrobial activity on gram positive and negative bacteria,
especially on Pseudomonas and Streptococcus, in accordance with
the process shown in Reaction Scheme - 3 below and as exempli-
fied in Reference Examples 16 to 18.

The reaction scheme is explained in detail in copend-
ing application Serial No. 325,375 filed on even date with this
application and corresponding to Japanese Application No. 43624/

1978 filed in Japan April 12, 1978.
As is apparent to those skilled in the art, the com-

pounds of the formula (1) can exist in optically active forms
and this invention includes such optical isomers within its
scope.
' In using the compounds of this invention of the form-
ula (1) and the salts thereof as therapeutic agents, these com-
pounds can be formulated into pharmaceutical compositions to-
gether with ordinary pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. Suit-
able carriers which can be used are, for example, diluents or

excipients such as fillers, extenders, binders, wetting agents,
disintegrants, surface active agents and lubricants which are

usually employed to prepare such drugs depending on the type of
dosage forms.
Various dosage forms of the therapeutic agents as an
antimicrobial agent can be selected according to the purpose of
~ the therapy. Typical dosage forms which can be are used;
r tablets, pills powders, liquid preparations, suspensions, emul-
sions, granules, capsules, suppositories, and injectable pre-
parations (solutions, suspensions, etc.).
In molding a pharmaceutical composition containing the

compounds of the formula (I) or the pharmaceutically acceptable

1 salt thereo~ as an activ~ ingr~dient into ~ tablet form, a wide
range o~ c~rriers known in the art can be used. Examples of
suitable carriers include excipients such as lactose, white
sugar, sodium chloride, glucose solution, urea, starch, calcium
carbonate, kaolin, crystalline cellulose and silicic acid,
binders such as water, ethanol, propanol, simple syrup, glucose,
starch solution, gelatin solution, carboxymethyl cellulose,
shellac, methyl cellulose, potassium phosphate and polyvinyl
pyrrolidone, disintegrants such as dried starch, sodium alginate,
lC agar powder, laminaria powder, sodium hydrogen carbonate,
calcium carbonate, Tween, sodium lauryl sulfate, stearic acid
monoglyceride, starch, and lactose, disintegration inhibitors
such as white sugar, stearic acid glyceryl ester, cacao butter
and hydrogenated oils, absorption promotors such as quaternary
ammonium bases and sodium lauryl sulfate, humectants such as
, glycerol and starch, adsorbents such as starch, lactose, kaolin,
bentonite and colloidal silicic acid, and lubricants such as
purified talc, stearic acid salts, boric acid powder, Macrogol*
(trademark for a polyethylene glycol produced by Shinetsu
Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.) and solid polyethylene glycol.
The tablets, if desired, can be coated, and made into
sugar-coated tablets, gelatin-coated tablets, enteric-coated
tablets, film-coated tablets, or tablets comprising two or more
layers.
In molding the pharmaceutical composition into pills,
a wide variety of conventional carriers known in the art can be
used. Examples of suitable carriers are excipients such as
glucose, lactose, starch, cacao butter, hardened vegetable oils,
kaolin and talc, binders such as gum arabic powder, tragacanth
powder, gelatin, and ethanol, and disintegrants such as lami-
naria and agar.

; 1 In molding the pha~maceutical composition into a
suppository form, a wide variety of carriers known in the art
can be used. Examples o~ suitable carriers include polyethylene
glycol, cacao butter, higher alcohols, esters oE hicJher alcohols,
gelatin, and semi-synthetic glycerides.
When the pharmaceutical composition is formulated into
an injectable preparation, the resulting solution and suspension
are preferably sterilized, and are isotonic with respect to the

. blood. In formulating the pharmaceutical composition into the
i' ,
form of a solution or suspension, all diluents customarily used

in the art can be used. Examples of suitable diluents are
water, ethyl alcohol, propylene glycol, ethoxylated isostearyl
alcohol, polyoxyethylene sorbitol, and sorbitan esters. Sodium
chloride, glucose or glycerol may be incorporated into a thera-
peutic agent, e.g., as a nephritis treating agent in an amount
sufficient to prepare isotonic solutions. The therapeutic
agent may further contain ordinary dissolving aids, buffers,
pain-alleviating agents, and preservatives, and optionally

coloring agents, perfumes, flavors, sweeteners, and other drugs.

; 20 The amount of the compound of the formula (I) and the

pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof of this invention as
an active ingredient to be incorporated into a pharmaceutical
composition useful as an antimicrobial agent is not particularly
limited, and can vary over a wide range. A suitable therapeutic-
` ally effective amount of the compound of the general formula (I)
and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof of this
invention is usually about l to about 70% by weight, preferably

5 to 50% by weight, based on the entire composition.
There is no particular restriction on the manner of
using the therapeutic agent and the therapeutic agent can be
administered by routes suitable for the particular forms of

1 the therapeu~ic agent. For example, the tablcts, pills,
liquid preparations, suspensions, emulsions, granules, and
capsules are orally administered. The injectable preparations
are intravenously administered either alone or tocJether witl
ordinary auxiliary agents such as qlucose and amino acids.
Furthermore, as required, the therapeutic agent can be singly
` administered intramuscularly, intracutaneously, subcutaneously,
or intraperitoneally. The suppository is administered intra-
rectally and the ointment is coated on the skin.
The dosage of the antimicrobial agent is suitably
, selected according to the purpose of use, the symptoms, etc.
- Usually, a preferred dosage of the compound of this invention is
about 10 mg to 5 g/kg body per day in 3 to 4 multiple doses.


I. Antimicrobial Activity
1. Test Method
The antimicrobial activity of the following test com-
pounds on various test organisms listed below was determined by
the serial dilution method on agar plate (Heart Infusion agar
produced by Difco Co.)- (See CHE~OTHERAPY 22, p. 1126 - 1128
(1974), and the minimum inhibitory concentrations (mcg/mQ)
obtained are shown in Table 1 below.
A sample of each test organism was prepared so that
the population of the organism was 1 x 10 cells/mQ
(O.D. 660 mll = 0.07 to 0.16) and 1 x 10 cells/mQ (~hich was
obtained by diluting the above 1 x 10 cells/mQ preparation).

1 (III) Inactivation Ratio by Human Serum Protein

A 1/15 mol/Q phosphate buffer was added to powders ofMoni-Trol 1 (dehydrated preparation of human serum, a product of
- Midori Juji Co. Ltd.) to prepare a composition having the same
serum protein concentration as natural human serum and this pre-
paration was labeled "100~ human serum", an aliquot of the "100
human serum" preparation was mixed with the same volume of the
above buffer to prepare "50~ human serum" and another aliquot

was mixed with 4 times as much as its volume of the buffer to
prepare "20~ human serum".

Each of test compounds A and E was dissolved in an
~ appropriate amount of the above serum preparations such that the
,~ final concentrations were 12.5 ~g/mQ and 3.1 ~g/mQ. After in-
cubating the resulting preparations at 37 C for 2 hours, the
~" amount of active component was evaluated by determining the
. .
activity of the test compound in the human serum on Escherichia

, coli As-l9 (Inoculum size: 10 cells/mQ).

The Inactivation Ratio of test compounds A and E in
.,
human serum was calculated in accordance with the following
' 20 equation.

36 mQ of N-methyl-piperazine and 15 mQ of hexamethylphosphoric
triamide was heated at 150 to 160C for 4 hours. After com-
pletion of the reaction the solvent was removed by distillation
under rèduced pressure and the residue was washed with 10 mQ
of ethyl acetate. The crude crystals thus obtained was mixed
with 100 mQ of water and adjusted to a pH of 4 with acetic
acid. Insoluble materials were removed by filtration and the

filtrate was treated with activated carbon followed by

concentration under reduced pressure. The residue was mixed

with 20 mQ of water and the solution was adjusted to a pH of
9 with a 10% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution and extracted
with 80 mQ of chloroform. After the extract was dried over
anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated it was purified
through a silica gel column chromatography [silica gel: Wako
