R-7-(3-aminomethyl-4-methoxyimino-3-methyl-pyrrolidin-1-yl)-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1 acid and L-aspartic acid salt, process for the preparation thereof and pharmaceutical composition comprising the same for antimicrobial
Disclosed herein are R-7-(3-aminomethyl-4-methoxyimino-3-methyl-pyrrolidin-1-yl)-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-[1,8]naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid and L-aspartic acid salt, process for the preparation thereof and pharmaceutical composition comprising the same for antimicrobial. Because the R-7-(3-aminomethyl-4-methoxyimino-3-methyl-pyrrolidin-1-yl)-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-[1,8]naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid and L-aspartic acid salt is more soluble and less toxic and has less side effects as an antimicrobial agent than hydrochloride and the other salts (D-aspartate and phosphate) conventionally used, the salt may be useful for oral and injectable administration.
1. A method of administering to a patient in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of L-aspartate of R-7-(3-aminomethyl-4-methoxyimino-3-methyl-pyrrolidin-1-yl)-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-[1,8]naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid represented by the following Chemical Figure 1:
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the L-aspartate of R-7-(3-aminomethyl-4-methoxyimino-3-methyl-pyrrolidin-1-yl)-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-[1,8]naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid is active against Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative bacteria, methicillin resistant bacteria, or quinolone-resistance bacteria.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the L-aspartate of R-7-(3-aminomethyl-4-methoxyimino-3-methyl-pyrrolidin-l-yl)-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-[1,8]naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid is active against Streptococci.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the L-aspartate of R-7-(3-aminomethyl-4-methoxyimino-3-methyl-pyrrolidin-1-yl)-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-[1,8]naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid is active against methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the L-aspartate of R-7-(3-aminomethyl-4-methoxyimino-3-methyl-pyrrolidin-1-yl)-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-[1,8]naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid is a pharmaceutically acceptable L-aspartate salt of R-7-(3-aminomethyl-4-methoxyimino-3-methyl-pyrrolidin-l-yl)-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-[1,8]naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the salt has a greater mean oral bioavailability than a hydrochloric acid salt of R-7-(3-aminomethyl-4-methoxyimino-3-methyl-pyrrolidin-1-yl)-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-[1,8]naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid.
7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the salt has at least about a 30% greater mean oral bioavailability than a hydrochloric acid of R-7-(3-aminomethyl-4-methoxyimino-3-methyl-pyrrolidin-1-yl)-1-c yclopropyl-6-fluoro-4-ox o-1,4-dihydro-[1,8]naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid.
8. The method of claim 5 , wherein the salt has a reduced cytotoxicity than a hydrochloric acid salt of R-7-(3-aminomethyl-4-methoxyimino-3-methyl-pyrrolidin-1-yl)-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-[1,8]naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid.
