RESUMO
The synthesis, antibacterial activity, and stability to human dehydropeptidase-1 (DHP-1) of a novel series of (5R,6S)-6-[(1R)-1-hydroxyethyl]-2-heterocyclylcarbapen-2-em-3-carb oxylates are described. Of the compounds investigated 1,5-disubstituted pyrazol-3-yl and 3-substituted isoxazol-5-yl derivatives have the best combination of antibacterial activity and stability to DHP-1. They are particularly active against community-acquired respiratory tract pathogens and have stabilities to DHP-1 superior to that of meropenem.

The synthesis, antibacterial activity and stability to human dehydropeptidase-1 (DHP-1) of three small series of carbapenems carrying carbon-linked substituents at C-2 are described. C-2 Ethenyl carbapenems showed moderate antibacterial activity but poor stability to DHP-1, C-2 Oxyiminomethyl carbapenems demonstrated variable activity and stability C-2 alpha-(Hydroxy)benzyl carbapenems were the most promising and showed good potency and DHP-1 stability.

A series of carbapenems containing novel C-2 semisaturated heterocyclic substituents were synthesised by 1,3 dipolar cycloaddition reactions of nitrile oxides, nitrile imines and a nitrone to 2-vinylcarbapenem. The isoxazoline and isoxazolidine compounds showed potent antibacterial activity but moderate stability to human dehydropeptidase 1 (DHP-1). Stability to DHP-1 was improved by methyl substitution in the isoxazoline ring, but at the expense of antibacterial activity. The pyrazolines exhibited excellent stability to DHP-1, but reduced potency against Gram-negative organisms.
