Isomerism of Cephalosporin Esters; Theoretical and Practical Aspects
摘要:
Attempts to prepare 1,4-dihydropyridine targetor based chemical. delivery systems (CDS) for 7-(thiophene-2-acetamido) cephalosporanic acid (cephalotin) (1) are reported. Reaction of 1 with hydroxyethylnicotinamide resulted in a mixture of Delta(2) and Delta(3) isomers of the 3-pyridinylcarbonylamino esters of 1; after chromatographic separation the Delta(3) isomer was N-methylated and the resulting quaternary pyridinium salt was reduced with sodium dithionite to give the CDS. Attempts to attach the dihydropyridine moiety to 1 as an acyloxyalkyl ester failed. Relative stabilities of the Delta(3) and Delta(2) isomers of cephalotin acid and methyl ester, as reflected by theoretically (AM1 and PM3) calculated heats of formation (Delta H-f) indicated that kinetic and mechanistic, rather than thermodynamic factors are responsible for the isomerization of the esters.
