摘要:
Antibiotics 47,433 and 47,434 are produced by culture of Actinomycete micro-organism ATCC 31286, and are useful for controlling coccidiosis in poultry by administration in the diet, and for improving feed utilisation in ruminants and monogastric animals. Antibiotic 47,433 as crystalline free acid is soluble in methanol, acetone, chloroform, methylisobutyl ketone, ethyl acetate and insoluble in water; m.p. 89-99°C; (a)D = +16° (C= 1 . 0 , MeOH); average composition by weight: 64.92% carbon, 9.73% hydrogen and 25.35% oxygen (by difference); infrared absorption (KBr pellets, in microns):2.87,3.42, 5.77, 6.85, 7.30. 8.05, 8.60, 9.20, 10.15, 10.53 and 11.45; following crystalline salts are described: -Na(m.p. 226-32°; (a)D --0.2° (C=1.0, MeOH), -K (m.p. 202.-5°; (α) D = -3.2 (C=1.0, MeOH), -Ag (m.p. 180-2°: (α) D = +3.6° (C=1.0, MeOH). Antibiotic 47.434 as crystalline sodium salt is soluble in chloroform, ethyl acetate, methylisobutyl ketone and insoluble in water; m.p. 230-238°C, (α) D = -1.3° (C-1.0, MeOH); infra-red absorption (KBr pellets, in microns): 3.40, 6.40, 6.85, 7.14, 7.27, 7.75, 8.05, 8.40, 8.62, 9.10, 9.40,10.07, 10.50, 11.49.12.65 and 13.25.
