In accordance with Scheme II, compounds of formula 3 are N-alkylated in the presence of formaldehyde and either a primary amine such as methylamine, ethylamine, benzylamine, methyl glycinate, (L or D)alanine, (L or D)lysine or their substituted congeners: or a secondary amine such as morpholine, pyrrolidine, piperidine or their substituted congeners to give the corresponding Mannich base adduct, The 7-(substituted)-9-[(substituted glycyl)amido]-6-demethyl-6-deoxytetracyclines may be obtained as metal complexes such as aluminum, calcium, iron, magnesium, manganese and complex salts: inorganic and organic salts and corresponding Mannich base adducts using methods known to those skilled in the art (Richard C. Larock, Comprehensive Organic Transformations, VCH Publishers, 411-415, 1989). It is well known to one skilled in the art that an appropriate salt form is chosen based on physical and chemical stability, flowability, hygroscopicity and solubility. Preferably, the 7-(substituted)-9-[(sub-stituted glycyl)amido]-6-demethyl-6-deoxytetracyclines are obtained as inorganic salt such as hydrochloric, hydrobromic, hydroiodic, phosphoric, nitric or sulfate:

or organic salt such as acetate, benzoate, citrate, cysteine or other amino acids, fumarate, glycolate, maleate, succinate, tartrate, alkylsulfonate or arylsulfonate. Depending on the stochiometry of the acids used, the salt formation occurs with the C(4)'-dimethylamino group (1 equivalent of acid) or with both the C(4)-dimethylamino group and the W group (2 equivalents of acid). The salts are preferred for oral and parenteral administration.

Some of the compounds of the hereinbefore described Schemes have centers of asymmetry at the carbon bearing the W substituent. The compounds may, therefore, exist in at least two (2) stereoisomeric ~_ forms. The present invention encompasses the racemic mixture of stereoisomers as well as all stereoisomers of the compounds whether free from other stereoisomers or admixed with stereoisomers in any proportion of enantiomers. The absolute configuration of any compound may be determined by conventional X-ray crystallography.
The stereochemistry centers on the tetracycline unit (i.e. C-4, C-4a, C-5a and C-12a) remain intact throughout the reaction sequences.
BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY
Methods for in Vitro antibacterial evaluation (Table I) The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), the lowest concentration of the antibiotic which inhibits growth of the test organism, is determined by the agar dilution method using 0.1 ml Muller-Hinton II
agar (Baltimore Biological Laboratories) per well. An inoculum density of 1-5 x 105 CFU/ml, and an antibio-tic concentrations range of 32-0.004 microgram/ml is used. MIC is determined after the plates are incubated for 18 hours at 35oC in a forced air incubator. The test organisms comprise strains that are sensitive to tetracycline and genetically defined strains that are resistant to tetracycline, due to inability to bind bacterial ribosomes (tetM).
E. coli in Vitro Protein Translation System (Table II) An in vitro, cell free, protein translation system using extracts from E. coli strain MRE600 (tetracycline sensitive) and a derivative of MRE600 containing the tetM determinant has been developed based on literature methods [J. M. Pratt, Coupled Transcription-translation in Prokaryotic Cell-free Systems, Transcription and Translation, a Practical Approach, (B.D. Hames and S.J. Higgins, eds) p.
179-209, IRL Press, Oxford-Washington, 1984].

21x3836 Using the system described above, the tetra-cycline compounds of the present invention are tested for their ability to inhibit protein synthesis i~
vitro. Briefly, each 10 microliter reaction contains S30 extract (a whole extract) made from either tetracycline sensitive cells or an isogenic tetracycline resistant (tetM) strain, low molecular weight components necessary for transcription and translation (i.e. ATP and GTP), a mix of 19 amino acids (no methionine), 35S labeled methionine, DNA template (either pBR322 or pUC119), and either DMSO (control) or the novel tetracycline compound to be tested ("novel TC") dissolved in DMSO.
The reactions are incubated for 30 minutes at 37 C. Timing is initiated with the addition of the S30 extract, the last component to be added. After 30 minutes, 2.5 ~1 of the reaction is removed and mixed with 0.5 ml of 1N NaOH to destroy RNA and tRNA. Two ml of 25% trichloroacetic acid is added and the mixture incubated at room temperature for 15 minutes. The trichloroacetic acid precipitated material is collected on Whatman GF/C filters and washed with a solution of 10% trichloroacetic acid. The filters are dried and the retained radioactivity, representing incorporation of 35S-methionine into polypeptides, is counted using standard liquid scintillation methods.
The percent inhibition (P. I.) of protein synthesis is determined to be:
3 0 p,t.=100- ~ Retained radioactivity of novel TC containing sample Retained radioactivity of the DMSO control reaction In Vivo Antibacterial Evaluation The therapeutic effects of tetracyclines are determined against an acute lethal infection with Staphylococcus aureus strain Smith (tetracycline 21038~~

sensitive). Female, mice, strain CD-1(Charles River Laboratories), 20+2 grams, are challenged by an intraperitoneal injection of sufficient bacteria (suspended in hog mucin) to kill non-treated controls within 24-48 hours. Antibacterial agents, contained in 0.5 ml of 0.2% aqueous agar, are administered subcutaneously or orally 30 minutes after infection.
When an oral dosing schedule is used, animals are deprived of food for 5 hours before and 2 hours after infection. Five mice are treated at each dose level.
The 7 day survival ratios from 3 separate tests are pooled for calculation of median effective dose (ED50)' Testing Results ' The claimed compounds exhibit antibacterial activity against a spectrum of tetracycline sensitive and resistant Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, especially, strains of E_. coli, S_. aureus and E_.
faecalis, containing tetM and tetD resistance determinants; and E_. co i containing the tetB and tetD
resistance determinants. Notable are compounds D, G, and K, as shown in Table I, which demonstrated excellent in vitro activity against tetracycline resistant strains containing the tetM resistance determinant (such as S. aureus UBMS 88-5, S_. aureus UBMDS 90-1 and 90-2, _E. coli UBMS 89-1 and 90-4) and tetracycline resistant strains containing tetB
resistance determinants (such as E_. coli UBMS 88-1 and E_. coli TN10C tetB). These compounds also have good activity against _E. coli tetA, E_. coli tetC and E_. coli tetD and are equally as effective as minocycline against susceptible strains and are superior to that of minocycline against a number of recently isolated bacteria from clinical sources (Table I).
Minocycline and compounds B, C, D, G and H
are assayed in vitro for their ability to inhibit protein synthesis taking place on either wild type or tetM protected ribosomes using a coupled transcription z~~~s~s and translation system. All compounds are found to effectively inhibit protein synthesis occuring on wild type ribosomes, having equivalent levels of activity.
Minocycline is unable to inhibit protein synthesis occurring on tetM protected ribosomes. In contrast, compounds B, C, D, G and H are effective at inhibiting protein synthesis occurring on tetM protected ribosomes (Table II).
to Compounds B, C, D, G and H bind reversibly to its target (the ribosome) since bacterial growth resumes when the compound is removed from the cultures by washing of the organism. Therefore, the ability of these compounds to inhibit bacterial growth appears to be a direct consequence of its ability to inhibit protein synthesis at the ribosome level.
The activity of compound G against tetracycline susceptible organisms is also demonstrated Len vivo in animals infected with S_. aureus Smith with ED50's between 1-2 mg/kg when administered intravenously, and ED50's of 4-8 mg/kg when given orally.
The improved efficacy of compounds D, G and K
is demonstrated by the in vitro activity against isogenic strains into which the resistance determinants, such as tetM and tetB, were cloned (Table I); and the inhibition of protein synthesis by tetM
ribosomes (Table II).
As can be seen from Table I and II, compounds of the invention may also be used to prevent or control important veterinary diseases such as diarrhea, urinary tract infections, infections of skin and skin structure, ear, nose and troat infections, wound infections, mastitis and the like.

Such pharmaceutical preparations may contain, for example, from about 25 to about 90% of the active ingredient in combination with the carrier, more usually between about 5% and 60% by weight.
An effective amount of compound from 2.0 mg/kg of body weight to 100.0 mg/kg of body weight should be administered one to five times per day via any typical route of administration including but not limited to oral, parenteral (including subcutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular, intrasternal injection or infusion techniques), topical or rectal, in dosage unit formulations containing conventional non-toxic pharma-ceutically acceptable carriers, adjuvants and vehicles.
It will be understood, however, that the specific dose level and frequency of dosage for any particular patient may be varied and will depend upon a variety of factors including the activity of the specific compound employed, the metabolic stability and length of action of that compound, the age, body weight, general health, sex, diet, mode and time of administration, rate of excretion, drug combination, the severity of the parti-cular condition, and the host undergoing therapy.
These active compounds may be administered orally as well as by intravenous, intramuscular, or subcutaneous routes. Solid carriers include starch, lactose, dicalcium phosphate, microcrystalline cellu-lose, sucrose and kaolin, while liquid carriers include sterile water, polyethylene glycols, non-ionic surfac-tants and edible oils such as corn, peanut and sesame oils, as are appropriate to the nature of the active ingredient and the particular form of administration desired. Adjuvants customarily employed in the pre-paration of pharmaceutical compositions may be advanta-l0 geously included, such as flavoring agents, coloring agents, preserving agents, and antioxidants, for exam-ple, vitamin E, ascorbic acid, BHT and BHA.
The preferred pharmaceutical compositions from the standpoint of ease of preparation and admini-stration are solid com ositions p , particularly tablets and hard-filled or liquid-filled capsules. Oral ad-ministration of the compounds is preferred.
These active compounds may also be admini-stered parenterally or intraperitoneally. Solutions or suspensions of these active compounds as a free base or pharmacologically acceptable salt can be prepared in glycerol, liquid, polyethylene glycols and mixtures thereof in oils. Under ordinary conditions of storage and use, these preparations contain a preservative to prevent the growth of microorganisms.
The pharmaceutical forms suitable for inject-able use include sterile aqueous solutions or disper-sions and sterile powders for the extemporaneous pre-paration of sterile injectable solutions or disper-sions. In all cases, the form must be sterile and must be fluid to the extent that easy syringability exists. It must be stable under the conditions of manufacture and storage and must be preserve against the contaminating action of micoorganisms such as bac-terial and fungi. The carrier can be a solvent or dis-persion medium containing, for example, water, ethanol, polyol (e. g., glycerol, propylene glycol and liquid 21Q~S'3~

polyethylene glycol), suitable mixtures thereof, and vegetable oil.

The invention will be more fully described in conjunction with the following specific examples which are not be construed as limiting the scope of the in-vention.
