Specification

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Penicillin compounds are widely used as antibacterial drugs. These compounds consist of a ß-lactam ring fused to a thiazolidine ring; hence they are referred as ß-lactam antibiotics. Typical examples of penicillins which are commonly used in clinical practice are benzylpenicillin (penicillin G)  phenoxylmethylpenicillin (penicillin V)  ampicillin and carbenicillin.
Despite of their wide usage as chemotherapeutic usage they suffer a major drawback that some of the microorganisms on which they are acted upon produce ß-lactamase which cleave the ß-lactam ring of penicillin compounds to produce compounds which are devoid of antibacterial activity. There are certain compounds which are well capable to deal with such problem by inhibiting ß-lactamases. These compounds are known as semi synthetic antibiotics or isoxazolyl peniciilins in specific which are in the same class as penicillin. Some of the examples of the semi synthetic antibiotics are cloxacillin  dicloxacillin  flucloxacillin  oxacillin and their respective pharmaceutical salts thereof.
There are certain methods in the prior art which produces isoxazolyl penicillin derivatives such as oxacillin  cloxacillin  dicloxacillin or flucloxacillin. Generally  the method to prepare these isoxazolyl penicillins is a multi-step process which involves preparation of intermediates viz Penicillin G and then 6-aminopenicillanic acid which is subsequently followed by isolation of the intermediates and thereby purification and crystallization of the intermediates. After that  6-aminopenicillanic acid is reacted with a carboxylic acid chloride to form the isoxazolyl penicillin.
Main problem faced during this process is the high usage of power consumption  stability and purity of the intermediates. The industrial scale production of these compounds entails greater investment attributable to a multi-step process. This multi step process involves production of intermediates followed by their addition of an organic solvent to commence the purification and crystallization procedure. Filtration  purification and crystallization procedure are extensive  costly and time consuming processes. This multi step process demands an increased cost of production primarily due to isolation and complex purification methods employed for the intermediates.
Hence  there is a need to provide an in-situ process for the preparation of the isoxazolyl penicillins to avoid these issues of concern. The present invention provides a cost effective  simplified and less laborious in-situ process for the preparation of isoxazolyl penicillins viz cloxacillin  dicloxacillin  flucloxacillin  oxacillin and their respective pharmaceutical salts thereof without isolation of the intermediates Penicillin G and 6-aminopenicillanic acid.

In the detailed description of the invention  numerous specific details are described to provide a thorough understanding of the various embodiments of the invention. However  one skilled in the relevant art will recognize that an embodiment of the invention can be practiced without one or more of the specific details  or with other apparatus  systems  assemblies  methods  components  materials  parts  and/or the like. In other instances  well-known structures  materials  or operations are not specifically shown or described in detail to avoid obscuring aspects of embodiments of the invention.
The various aspects of the present invention leading to a process for the preparation of sodium salt of various isoxazolyl penicillins are detailed below.
The invention provides to the prior art  an in-situ process for the preparation of beta-lactamase inhibitor semi synthetic antibiotics more specifically it provides a process for the preparation of isoxazolyl penicillins. Isoxazolyl penicillins come in same class as penicillin and are used as penicillinase-resistant penicillin compounds. Penicillinase or beta-lactamase enzyme is an enzyme which is produced by certain strains of bacteria that can deactivate certain types of penicillin antibiotics. Thus  penicillinase-resistant antibiotics such as isoxazolyl penicillins and their pharmaceutical acceptable salts are useful in fighting certain bacterial infections such as Staphylococcus when other penicillins wouldn""t work.
Isoxazolyl penicillins such as cloxacillin  dicloxacillin  flucloxacillin  oxacillin and their respective pharmaceutical acceptable salts thereof are used against bacteria that produce beta lactamase or penicillinase  which affects the antimicrobial activity of the antibiotics.
The invention provides a process for the preparation of sodium salt isoxazolyl penicillins such as cloxacillin sodium  dicloxacillin sodium  flucloxacillin sodium  and oxacillin sodium involving in-situ reaction. The term "in situ" is defined herein as performing two or more reaction sequences without isolating any of the intermediates that is produced during the reaction sequence.
The invention provides an in-situ process for the preparation of isoxazolyl penicillins  which is quite efficient and cost effective and which proves to generate significant feasibility for an industrial scale production of sodium salt of isoxazolyl penicillins without involving separate preparation of the intermediates like Penicillin G and 6-aminopenicillanic acid.
The present invention provides an in-situ process for the preparation of various Isoxazolyl Penicillins from sugarcane juice in which intermediates like penicillin G and 6-aminopenicillanic acid produced during the reaction are not isolated from the reaction sequence. The process is characterized in the steps comprising:
preparation of a first reaction mixture comprising Penicillin G by fermentation of sugarcane juice with a salt of phenylacetic acid to form a product comprising Penicillin G and thereby purification of the product to form the first reaction mixture which is used for the preparation of second reaction mixture wherein the preparation is in-situ;
preparation of a second reaction mixture by enzymatic reaction of the first reaction mixture wherein the preparation is in-situ and is characterized in the steps comprising: reaction of the first reaction mixture with an enzyme to form a solution comprising 6-APA and phenylacetic acid (PAA) without isolation of penicillin G from the first reaction mixture. Then  adding a first organic solvent in presence of an acidic solution to it at a temperature of 0-40°C to form a first organic layer comprising phenylacetic acid and a first aqueous layer comprising 6-APA. After that  extracting the second organic layer to form a third reaction mixture comprising phenylacetic acid (PAA) and thereby obtaining the second reaction mixture comprising 6-APA;
in-situ addition of a second organic solvent and a carboxylic acid chloride to the second reaction mixture (without isolation of 6-APA) at a temperature of 0-30°C to obtain a second organic layer and a second aqueous layer; and
in-situ separating the second organic layer and then adding a sodium salt complex to it to form the Isoxazolyl Penicillin.
In the processes known in the prior art  6-aminopenicillanic acid (6-APA) is prepared separately and is reacted with carboxylic acid chlorides to form Isoxazolyl penicillins but in the present process  6-APA is produced in-situ (within the system) by enzymatic reaction of the first reaction mixture comprising penicillin G generated after the fermentation of sugarcane with a salt of phenylacetic acid. This 6-APA is then reacted with the carboxylic acid chlorides to the Isoxazolyl Penicillins. The in-situ preparation avoids the extra cost of purification  crystallization  equipments  storage of separately produced 6-APA  thus this process comes out to be cost effective. During the in-situ preparation of second reaction mixture  phenylacetic acid is recovered from the system which is recycled to the fermentation step. This recycling makes the process cost effective and allows less consumption of the reactant.
In an embodiment of the invention  the preparation of isoxazolyl penicillins is carried out directly from the sugarcane juice.

adding sodium bicarbonate and sodium chloride to the solution formed for better separation of the second organic layer; de-moisturizing the second organic layer and reacting it with sodium 2-ethylhexanoate to form the cloxacillin sodium.
In another embodiment of the invention  the preparation of the isoxazolyl penicillins is done without isolation of the intermediates i.e. penicillin G and 6-APA at any stage i.e. reaction is carried out in an in-situ manner  which is very useful on commercial scales.

At 28-29°C Penicillin acylase enzyme was added. The pH was maintained at around 8 by the addition of 10% ammonia solution. Reaction was continued till completion. The solution was allowed to settle for 5 min and then filtered. The filtrate was then washed with 90ml de-mineralized water. The temperature of the resulting solution was then cooled to 4-5°C and 170ml of toluene was added in presence of HCl at a pH in range of 1-1.4 to obtain a solution comprising 6-aminopenicillanic acid (6-APA) and phenylacetic acid (PAA). The solution obtained was stirred for 5 min to form a first organic layer and a first aqueous layer. The first organic layer comprising PAA was separated to form a third reaction mixture and recycled into the system whereas the first aqueous layer was filtered and wash with 10ml de-mineralized water to form the second reaction mixture. The temperature of the solution was maintained at 0-5°C and 400ml ethyl acetate and 31.5gm of CMIC chloride were added to the filtered/washed second reaction mixture. The pH of the solution was raised to 1.85 with 9% NaHCO3 solution in 2 hrs and then further raised to 2.4 in next 2 hrs. After the completion of 4hrs  NaCl was dissolved to obtain a second aqueous layer and a second organic layer.
