Abstract
The synthesis and in vitro antibacterial activity of 7 beta-[2-(5-amino-1,2,4-thiadiazol-3-yl)-2(Z)-alkoxyiminoacetami do] cephalosporins bearing various condensed-heterocyclic azolium groups at the 3 position in the cephalosporin nucleus are described. The thiadiazolyl cephalosporins showed good antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and the MICs of the thiadiazolyl cephalosporins against Pseudomonas aeruginosa was more potent than that of the corresponding 7 beta-[2-(2-aminothiazol-4-yl)-2(Z)-alkoxyiminoacetamido]-3- (condensed-heterocyclic azolium)methyl cephalosporins. Also, the thiadiazolyl cephalosporins bearing (imidazo[1,2-b]-pyridazinium-1-yl)methyl groups at the 3 position showed antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Among the cephalosporins tested, 7 beta-[2-(5- amino-1,2,4-thiadiazol-3-yl)-2(Z)-methoxyiminoacetamido]-3-(imidaz o[1,2- b]pyridazinium-1-yl)methyl-3- cephem-4-carboxylate (4, SCE-2787) which exhibited the most potent antibacterial activity and the broadest antibacterial spectrum was selected as a parenteral cephalosporin candidate for further biological evaluation.
