Synthesis and antibacterial activity of some ureido cephalexin and cefadroxil derivatives.
The antibacterial activity of some ureido, acylureido and carbamoylureido derivatives of cephalexin and cefadroxil, prepared in our laboratories, as compared to parent compounds is reported. Only the 7-[D-alpha-(imidazolidin-2-one-1-ylcarbonylamino)-alpha-phenylacetamido]-3-methyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid (IV d) and the 7-[D-alpha-(imidazolidin-2-one-1-ylcarbonylamino)-alpha-p-hydroxyphenylacetamido]-3-methyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid (V c) showed some antibiotic activity. However we found no activity improvement against Pseudomonas strains (contrary to the results obtained in similar penicillin derivatives) and a lower beta-lactamase resistance.
