Description: HALO DERIVATIVES OF 9-DEOXO-9A-AZA-9A-HOMERYTHROMYCIN A 1) Technical Field A 61 K 31/70, C 07 H 17/08 2) Technical Problem The invention relates to novel compounds from the class of the macrolide antibiotic erythromycin A. The invention especially relates to halo derivatives of 9a-N-(N- arylcarbamoyl)- and 9a-N-(N'-arylthiocarbamoyl)-9-deoxo-9a-aza-9a-homo- erythromycin A, to pharmaceutically acceptable addition salts thereof with inorganic or organic acids, to a process for their preparation, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising them and to the use of these pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment or prevention of bacterial infections. 3) Prior Art Erythromycin A is a macrolide antibiotic whose structure is characterized by a 14- member lactone ring with C-9 ketone, and two sugars, L-cladinose and D-desosamine. glycosidically bound to C-3 and C-5 positions of an aglycone moiety of the molecule (McGuire, Antibiot. Chemother., 1952; 2 : 281). By an oximation of C-9 ketone with hydroxylamine-hydrochloride, Beckmann rearrangement of the obtained 9(E)-oxime and reduction of the obtained 6,9-iminoether there is obtained 9-deoxo-9a-aza-9a- homoerythromycin A, the first semisynthetic macrolide with a 15-member azalactone ring (Kobrehel G. et al, US 4,328,334, 5/1982). By selective acylation of 9-deoxo-9a-aza-9a-homoeιythromycin A with carboxylic acid anhydrides, coπ-esponding mono-, di-, tri- or tetraacyl derivatives were synthesized and by a transesteπfication reaction with ethylene carbonate followed by acylation, 11, 12-cyclic carbonate and its acyl derivatives were synthesized (Djokic S. et al, J. Antibiotics 40, 1006- 1015, 1987). By reductive methylation of a secondary 9a-amino group of 9-deoxo-9a-aza-9a- homo erythromycin A according to Eschweiler-Clark process, 9-deoxo-9a-methyl-9a- aza-9a-homoerythromycin A (azithromycin), a prototype of a novel class of 9a-azalide antibiotics (Kobrehel G. et al, BE 892 357, 7/1982) was synthesized. In addition to a broad antimicrobial spectrum also including Gram negative bacteria, azithromycin is characterized by a long biological half-life, a specific mechanism of transport to the application site and a short therapy period. Azithromycin easily penetrates and is accumulated inside human phagocyte cells resulting in an improved action with regard to intracellular pathogenic microorganisms of the classes Legionella, Chlamydia and Helicobacter. Bright G. M. et al (J. Antibiotics 41, 1092-1047, 1987) synthesized a series of 9-a-N-alkyl analogues of azithromycin, disclosed the epimerization of the 4"- hydroxyl group and the preparation of a corresponding 4"-amino derivative. The synthesis and antibacterial activity of 9a, 11-cyclic ethers of 9-deoxo-9a-aza-9a- homoerythromycin A are disclosed in US 4,492,688, 1/1985 (Bright G. M.). The preparation and activity spectrum of 9a, 11-cyclic carbamate of 9-deoxo-9a-aza-l l- deoxy-9a-homoerythromycin A and its O-methyl derivatives are disclosed in US 5,434, 140, 7/1995 (Kobrehel G. et al). Recently, Blizzard T. A. et al (WO 99/00125, 7/98) disclosed novel 9a-N,6-0- methylene-9-deoxo-9a-aza-9a-homoerythromycin A derivatives and corresponding 9a- N,6-0-carbamates as intermediates in the synthesis of 3-keto derivatives from the class of 9a-azalides. It has also been disclosed that by a reaction of 9-deoxo-9a-aza-9a-homoeιythromycin A with isocyanates or isothiocyanates, corresponding 9a-N-(N'-carbamoyl)- and 9a-N- (N'-thiocarbamoyl) derivatives may be prepared (Kujundzic Ν. et al. US 5.629,296, 5/97). This invention relates to N'-(C r C 3 )alkylcarbamoyl, N'-arylcarbamoyl and N'- aralkylcarbamoyl derivatives and to thiocarbamoyl analogues thereof, resp. Although the antibacterial spectrum of these 9a-azalides is similar to the action of azithromycin, the effectiveness is 2 to 8 times smaller, even in case of the most active representatives (N-naphthylcarbamoyl and N'-benzylthiocarbamoyl derivatives). According to the well-known and established Prior Art, halo derivatives of 9a-N-(N- arylcarbamoyl)- and 9a-N-(N'-arylthiocarbamoyl)-9-deoxo-9a-aza-9a-homoerythro- mycin A, which are the object of the present invention, pharmaceutically acceptable addition salts thereof with inorganic or organic acids, a process for the preparation thereof, a process for the preparation of pharmaceutical compositions comprising them and the use of these pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment or prevention of bacterial infections have not been disclosed so far. The object of the present invention is the preparation of novel 9a-N-(N- arylcarbamoyl)- and 9a-N-(N'-arylthiocarbamoyl)-9-deoxo-9a-aza-9a-homoerythro- mycins A wherein at least one of the substituents on the aromatic ring has the meaning of halo, a (C C 6 )haloalkyl or a (C C 6 )haloalkoxy group. Novel 9a-azalides of the present invention are characterized by a broad antibacterial spectrum of action including an action upon sensitive and resistent Gram positive and Gram negative microorganisms. 4) The Inventive Solution It has been found that halo derivatives of 9a-N-(N'-arylcarbamoyl)- and 9a-N-(N- arylthiocarbamoyl)-9-deoxo-9a-aza-9a-homoerythromycin A of the general formula (I) wherein R has the meaning of a substituted aryl group of the formula (II) wherein substituents a, b, c, d and e are the same or different and at least one of them has the meaning of halo, a (Cι-C ό )haloalkyl or a (C C 6 )haloalkoxy group whereas the remaining ones have the meaning of hydrogen, halo, a (C C 6 )alkyl or a (C C 6 )alkoxy group, and X has the meaning of oxygen or sulfur, and pharmaceutically acceptable addition salts thereof with inorganic or organic acids, may be prepared by the reaction of 9-deoxo-9a-aza-9a-homoerythromycin A with isocyanates or isothiocyanates of the general formula (III) R - N = C = X (III) wherein R and X have the above meanings, in an aprotic solvent, preferably toluene, at room temperature or at elevated temperature.
