Description: NOVEL CYCLOHEXAPEPTIDE COMPOUNDS, PROCESSES FOR THEIR PRODUCTION AND THEIR USE AS A PHARMACEUTICAL Novel cyclohexapeptide compounds, processes for their production and their use as a pharmaceutical. The present invention relates to cyclohexapeptide compounds belonging to the echinocandin class having a substituent group at the ornithine-5, homotyrosine-4 and ortho position of the phenolic hydroxy of the homotyrosine unit, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. The present invention further relates to processes for the preparation of the novel cyclohexapeptide compounds, to the use of the compounds and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts as pharmaceuticals, in particular to their use in the treatment of fungal infections, and to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the novel compounds or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The search for new and effective antifungal agents has been intensified by the increase in immunological diseases and aggressive immunosuppressive chemotherapy. Present therapeutic options for the treatment of fungal infections are limited to compounds in two classes, the polyenes and the azoles. Due to an increase in the number of isolates, which are resistant to conventional antifungal agents, there presently exists a need for new antifungal and anti-pneumocystis agents. Because there are limited numbers of antifungal agents available for the treatment of life-threatening fungal infections and because resistance may further limit the utility of the newer azoles, there is an urgent need for new antifungal agents with a different mode of action. Accordingly, the present invention provides novel antifungal cyclohexapeptide compounds represented by general formula I as shown below: wherein R 1 is C9-C20 alkyl; C9-C20 alkenyl; C9-C20 alkoxyphenyl; an aryl group selected from: phenyl, biphenyl, terphenyl and naphthyl; Cι-Cι 2 alkylphenyl, C 2 -C 12 alkenylphenyl, C1-C1 2 alkoxyphenyl; linoleoyl; palmitoyl; 12-methylmyristoyl; 10,12- dimethylmyristoyl; or -COC 6 H 4 (p)OC 8 Hι 7 ; Ri and R3 are independently -H; -OH; -CN; -CH 2 NH 2 ; -N 3 ; aryl; substituted aryl; heterocyclyl and substituted heterocyclyl with 1-3 of the same or different heteroatoms; aminoalkylamino; mono or di-substituted linear or cyclic aminoalkylamino; -OR, wherein, R is C1-C 12 alkyl; substituted alkyl of the type - (CH 2 ) n -X ,where n is 1-5 and X is CI, Br, I, COOY, CN, NH 2 or a heterocyclic and where Y = C1-C 6 linear or branched alkyl; C 2 -Cι 2 -alkenyl; aryl; fused aryl; substituted aryl; a heterocyclic containing 1-3 heteroatoms; mono or di-substituted aminoalkyl; or a hydroxy protecting group; or R 3 is imidazolyl; R 2 and R 4 are independently -H or -OH; R 5 is -H or -CH 3; R 6 is -H, -CH 3 or -CH 2 CONH 2; R 7 is -H, -CH 3 or -OH; R 8 and R 9 are independently -H or -CH 2 -Secondary amine, the secondary amine being attached to -CH 2 through its N-linkage; and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts.
