Abstract
The present invention relates to a new series of fusidic acid derivatives, to salts and easily hydrolysable esters thereof, to the preparation of these compounds, and to pharmaceutical compositions containing the compounds, the new fusidic acid derivatives having the general formula: ##STR1## in which the dotted line between C-24 and C-25 indicates that the carbon atoms in question are connected by either a double bond or a single bond, and in which Q.sub.1 represents oxygen or one of the groupings ##STR2## Z being a hydroxy group, a halogen atom, an alkylsulfonyloxy or arylsulfonyloxy group, such as methanesulfonyloxy or p-toluenesulfonyloxy, an azido or a nitro group, Q.sub.2 is oxygen or the grouping ##STR3## and R.sub.1 stands for a straight or branched alkyl radical having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl or the known isomers of pentyl and hexyl, a phenyl or a heterocyclyl radical having 5 to 6 ring atoms and containing nitrogen, oxygen and/or sulfur atoms, these radicals being optionally substituted with halogen, nitro, lower alkyl or lower alkoxy radicals. The present compounds show both in vitro and in vivo interesting antimicrobial and pharmacokinetic properties.
