Title:
PROCESS FOR PRODUCING AVERMECTIN DERIVATIVE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2001/062939
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
22,23-Dihydroavermectin B1a, which is useful in drugs, veterinary drugs and pesticides, can be produced by direct fermentation. Thus, the troublesome and difficult industrial steps of purifying avermectin B1a and chemically modifying avermectin B1a involved in the conventional are can be omitted and therefore 22,23-dihydroavermectin B1a can be industrially produced while largely saving the cost and time. Moreover, a preparation containing 22,23-dihydroavermectin B1a alone, which is highly efficacious as a drug, can be produced.
