BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The no~el antibiotic of the in~ention, U-44,590 is
obtained by culturing StreptomYces platensis ~ar. clarensis,
NRRL 8035, in an aqueous nutrient medium under aerobic
conditions. Various derivati~es of U-44,590 can be made -
as disclosed infra. U-44,590 and its derivati~es ha~e
the property of ad~ersely affecting the growth of Gram-
negative and Gram-positi~e bacteria, for example, _repto-
coccus hemolyticus, Klebsiella pneumonia, Salmonella Sp.,
Serratia marcescens, Pasteurell~ multocida, Hemophilus Sp..
Proteus morqani and Proteus rettqeri. Accordingly, U-44,590
and its deri~ati~es can be used alone or in combination
with other antibiotic agents to pre~ent the growth of or
reduce the number of bacteria, as disclosed abo~e, in
~arious en~ironments.
U-44,590 and its deri~ati~es are also acti~e against
DNA ~iruses, for example, the Herpes ~irus and, thus. can
be used to control such ~irus where its presence is not
desired.

Infrared band intensities, throughout this disclosure,
are indicated as "S", "M", and "W" respectively and are
approximated in terms of the backgrounds in the vicinity
of the bands. An "S" band is of the same order of inten-
sity as the strongest in the spectrum; "M" bands are be-
tween 1/3 and 2/3 as intense as the strongest band; and,
"W" bands are less than 1/3 as intense as the strongest
band. These estimates are made on the basis of a percent
transmission scal~.

The above antibacterial spectrum was obtained by a
standard agar dilution test with the following media and
conditions:
Difco Brain Heart Infusion Medium was used for all
5 test bacteria except P. multocida and HemoPhilus species
which were grown in Difco Blood Agar Base with 5g de-
fibrinated rabbit blood. All were grown aerobically at
37 C . ( except HemoPhilus species, grown anaerobically)
16-18 hours. Inocula were grown overnite (16-18 hours)
at 37 C. and used to seed agar at the rate of 0.025 ml.
of 10 3 dilution (approximately 2500 to 25,000 bacteria -~
per drop of inoculum).

daily for fi~e consecuti~e days. A detailed account of
the materials and methods and results are as follows:
Male mice, weighing approximately 20 gm. each, are
di~ided into 4 groups of 20. Group 1 is treated with -
saline, Group 2 with 400 mg./kg./dose (mkd) U-44,590, ~ ~
Group ~ with 200 mkd U-44,590, and Group 4 with 100 mkd ~ -
U-44,590. The antibiotic is dissol~ed in saline and - -
administered subcutaneously in the nape of the neck at -
8 a.m., 12 noon, 4 p.m., and 8 p.m. on days 0, 1, 2, 3, -
and 4. Herpes virus at 10-1'5 dilution, 0.05 ml/mouse,
equi~alent to a ~iral dose of 40 LD5bs, is inoculated ~
into the tail ~ein at 10 a.m. on day 0. Paralysis and --
death are recorded daily.
Hind leg paralysis usually preceded death by 1^2 ~-
days. All mice died that became paralyzed. Death pattern
of the 4 groups, as shown in the cur~es which follow,
illustrates the dose response obtained. Statistical
analysis of the results at day 11 indicates that all 3 ~
treated groups are significantly different from the con~
trol group (1).

THE MlcRooRGANlsM
The microorganism used for the production of U-44,590 ~
is Stre~PtomYces platensis \~ar. clarensis, NRRL 8035. A ~ -
subculture of this microorganism can be obtained from the ~ -
5 permanent collection of the Northern Regional Research
Laboratory, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Peoria, Illinois,
U.S.A. -
The microorganism of this in~Jention was studied and
characterized by Alma Dietz of the Upjohn Research Labora-
tories.
A new soil isolate with hygroscopic spore masses, but
with s~ooth, hat-shaped (crescent) or braz ll-nut-shaped
(elliptical) spores, has been found to differ in certain
characteristics from the type culture strePtomyces platensis. F
An outstanding difference of the new culture is the produc-
tion of antibiotic U-44,590. The new isolate can be recog-
nized as a ~ariant of StreptomYces platensis by its cultura1,
- . .
microscopic, and biochemical characteristics. Therefore, it
is proposed that this new isolate be designated StrePtomYces
Dlatensis ~ar. clarensis Dietz \~ar. no\~a. Rule 7 of the

The new compound of the in~ention is produced when j :
the elaborating organism is grown in an aqueous nutrient
medium under submerged aerobic conditions. It is to be
understood, also, that for the preparation of limited
amounts surface cultures and bottles can be employed.
The organism is grown in a nutrient medium containing a
carbon source, for example, an assimilable carbohydrate,
and a nitrogen source, for example, an assimilable nitro- -
gen compound or proteinaceous material. Preferred carbon ~ - -
sources include glucose, brown sugar, sucrose, glycerol, ~ -
starch, cornstarch, lactose, dextrin, molasses, and the
like. Preferred nitroger sources include cornsteep liquor,
yeast, autolyzed brewer's yeast with milk solids, soybean -
meal, cottonseed meal, cornmeal, milk solids, pancreatic
digest of casein, fish meal, distillers' solids, animal i~
peptone liquors, meat and bone scraps, and the like. Com- ~ .
binations of these carbon and nitrogen sources can be used -
ad~antageously. Trace metals, for example, zinc, magnesium,
manganese, cobalt, iron, and the like, need not be added
to the fermentation media since tap water and unpurified
ingredients are used as components of the medium prior to
sterilization of the medium.
Production of the compound of the in~ention can be
effected at any temperature conduci~e to satisfactory
growth of the microorganism, for example, between about
o o o o
18 and 40 C., and preferably between about 20 and ~2 C.
Ordinarily, optimum production of the compound is obtained
in about 5 to 15 days. The medium normally remains neutral
during the fermentation. The final pH is dependent, in
part, on the buffers present, if any and in part on the
:. -
-34-
~ .
.
- ., - - - . - . -

3143
initial pH of the culture medium.
When growth is carried out in large ~essels and tanks,
it is preferable to use the ~egetati~e form, rather than
the spore form, of the microorganism for inoculation to
a~oid a pronounced lag in the production of the new com-
pound and the attendant inefficient utilization of the
equipment. Accordingly, it is desirable to produce a ~ege-
tati~e inoculum in a nutrient broth culture by inoculating
this broth culture with an aliquot from a soil, liquid N2 agar
plug, or a slant culture. When a young, acti~e ~egetati~e
inoculum has thus been secured, it is transferred asepti-
cally to large ~essels or tanks. The medium in which the
~egetati~e inoculum is produced can be the same as, or
different from, that utilized for the production of the
new compound, so long as a good growth of the microorganism
is obtained.
A variety of procedures can be employed in the isola~
tion and purification of the compound of the subject in~en-
tion, for example, sol~ent extraction, partition chromato
graphy, silica gel chromatography~ liquid-liquid distribu-
tion in a Craig apparatuS, absorption on resins, and
crystallization from sol~ents.
In a preferred reco~ery process the compound of the
subject in~ention is recovered from the culture medium by
separation of the ~ycelia and undissol~ed solids by con-
~entional means, such as by filtration or centrifugatton.
lhe antibiotic is reco~ered from the filtered or centri-
fuged broth by adsorption on acti~ated carbon. The acti-
~ated carbon is then washed with water to remo~e some
impurities. This is followed by-elutions with acetone:

water solutions which remo~e the antibiotic from the
acti~ated carbon. The acetone in the eluates i5 remo~ed,
ad~antageously by e~aporation, and the remalnlng aqu~ou~
residue is lyophil ized to afford a crude preparation of - - ;-
antibiotic U-44,590.
A preferred purification procedure is to subject a -~ -
crude preparation of U-44,59P, as described abo\~e, to
chromatography on sil ica gel from which U-44,590 is
eluted. Fractions which show acti~Jity
against the bacterium Klebsiella Pneumoniae on a standard
agar plate test, are pooled and taken to dryness to yield
a relati~ely pure preparation of U-44,590. Further purifi
catton is achie~ed by acetylation to a crystalline diacetate -
deri~ative of U-44,590. Zemplen [G. Zemplen and E. Pacsu, o ~ -
Ber., 62, 161~ (1929~] de-esterification (trans-esterifi-
cation) with sodium methoxide in methanol, and neutraliza-
tion of the catalytic amount of base with carbon dioxide t' ,~, ;,
gi~es the free antibiotic U-44,590 which crystallizes ~ -
readily from methanol-ethyl acetate to gi~e a pure prepara~
tion of U-44,590.
Antibiotic U-44,590 is acti~e against strePtococcus
hemolyticus and, thus, can be used to dlsinfect inStruments~ -~
utenslls or surfaces when contaminated with this microorgan- `~t
ism, where the inacti~ation of this microorganism is desir-
able. Also, U-44,990 is acti~e against Escherichia coli
~nd can be used to reduee, orrest, and/or cradlcate ~llme
production in papermill systems because of its antibacterial
ctlon against this bacterium. Antibiotlc U-4~,590 can also
be used to prolong the llfe of cultures of `rrlchomonas
foetus, Trichomonas hominis, and Trichomonas ~aainalis
-36- . ,: ' ' ,.

by freeing them of Escherichia coli contamination. Furt~ r.
U-44J590 can be used to inhibit the growth of E. coli in
hospital flower ~ases where it has been reported to exist
and present a hazard to hospital patients. See Clinical
Medicine, February, 1974, Page 9.
No~el acyl deri~atives of U-44,590, as disclosed
herein, can be used for the same antibiotic purposes as
U-44,590 in en~ironments possessing means to deacylate
the compound to U-44,590. Thus, the acyl deri~ati~es of
U-44,590 can be used to treat laboratory mice infected
with a Gram-negati~e bacteria, for example E. coli, as
disclosed herein. Further, acyl derivati~es of U-44,590
can be used, ad~antageously, to upgrade U-44,590. This
- is accomplished by acylating U-44,590, reco~ering the
acylated compound relati~ely free of impurities~ then de-
acylating the acylated U-44,590 to gi~e U-44,590 in a
more purified form.

with 1 liter each of a 10~, 25,~ and 50~6 acetone:water
concentration. These eluates, which contain antibiotic
U-44~590~ are pooled and the acetone is removed on a
rotatory e~aporator at :~i0 C~/15 mm. Hg. The resulting
acetone-free preparation is shell-frozen to an aqueous
residue and then lyophilized, yield~ 3~55 grams assaying
2 BU/mg. of U-44~590 against K. PneUmOniae. This prep-
aration, labeled for con~enience as Solid A~ is then
subjected to further reco~ery procedures as follows.
A silica gel (Merck-Darmstadt Cat 7734) column is
prepared from 420 grams of silica gel packed in methanol:
chloroform (1~ ). The column measures 3.8 x 88 mm.
Solid Q, obtained as described abo~e, is added on the top
of the column and the column is then eluted with methanol:
chloroform (1:1 v/v) . Acti~/e fractions, as determined
by the above-described K. pneumoniae assay, are pooled r`
and the solvent is remo~ed from said pooled fractions
by use of a rotatory e~/aporator at ~O C~/15 mm. Hg.;

The U-44,590 preparation, obtained as described above in
Part B, is dissol~ed in methanol~ silica is added (three
times the weight of the U-44~590 preparation used), and
5 this is then taken down to a dry powder on a rotatory
e~aporator at 40 /15 mm. Hg. The resulting dry solid is
added to the top of the silica column through a small head
of the sol~ent ethyl acetate:methanol (6:1 ~/~). After a
forerun of 4 liters~ 50 ml. fractions are collected and
assayed for acti~ity against K. pneumoniae. Active frac-
tions are also tested for solids content. Fractions great-
er than 50 BU/mg are pooled and then taken to dryness in
a rotatory e~aporator at 40 C./7 mm. Hg. to yield a syrup.

Part D. Purification No. 2
The preparations of U-44,590 obtained as described -
.
in Part C., can be further purified to a preparation of
essentially pure U-44,590 by passage o~er another silica `-
gel column using this time the sol~ent system methanol:
methylene chloride (1:8 ~/~). The procedure is as follows:
A U-44,590 preparation, as obtained in Part C~, (2.28
grams) is dissol~ed in methanol and 7 grams of silica gely
as described in Part C., is added. The sol~ent from this
mixture is remo~ed lon a rotary e~aporator at 40 C. /7 mm.
Hg. The resulting solid is added to a column of silica
gel [750 9., 4.8 x 96 cm, hold-up ~olume 1500 ml., made up
in MeOH-CH2CI2 (1:8 ~/~)]. A forerun (1100 ml.) is collect- -

a syrup. This material is shown to be almost pure U-44,5~30
by thin layer chromatography (tlc).
The tlc is conducted on silica gel plates using the
sol~ent system MeOH-CH2Cl2 (1:9 ~/~). Zones of the anti-
biotic are detected by spraying the plates with l04/MnO4spray, and with 50% aq. H2S04 fo1lowed by heating at
110 C. for ca 10 min. The Rf of the active material
in this sol~ent system is 0.11.
Part E. Purification No. 3
The preparation of antibiotic U-44,590 obtained in
Part D can be further purified by acetylation of the prep- '
aration followed by deacetylation and crystallization.
The procedure for acetylation is as follows:
A sample (ca. 22 9.) of U-44,590 preparation, prepared
as described in Part D and assaying 160 BU/mg,is dîssolved
in pyridine (300 ml), and to this solution,stirred magnetic- -
ally,is added acetic anhydride (150 ml) o~er the course of
45 min. After standing o~ernight at room temperature, ~ -
~olatile materials are remo~ed as completely as poss;ble ~
o
20on a rotatory e~aporator at 40 /15 mm. Hg., and finally ~ -
under high ~acuum, to gi~e a tan syrup.
This syrup ;s stirred with CH2Cl2 (200 ml), and a
colorless, flocculent precipitate is remo~ed by filtration ;
and washed with CH2Cl~ until the washings are colorless
25Ihe precipîtate is Idiscarded. The comb;ned filtrate and
washings are washed with aqueous HCl (N/20, 100 ml) twice,
the aqueous layer being ac;dic after the second wash. The
aqueous layers are discarded. The organic phase is then
washed with water (100 ml), saturated aqueous NaHC03 (100 ml),
30again with water (100 ml), and dried (Na2S0~). The aqueous

layers are discarded.
Remo~al of sol~ent on a rotatory e~aporator at 40 and
15 mm. Hg. gi~es a dark syrup (21.10 9), which is dissolved
in EtOAc (50 ml) by warming on a steam-bath. On cooling,
crystallization occurs; the solid is remo~ed by filtration, -`-
washed with EtOAc, and dried at 60 /15 mm. Hg., to gi~e
essentially pure 3',5'-di-0-acetylated U-44,590 (12.01 9.,
m.p. 123-124.5 C.). Recrystallization from the same
sol~ent gi~es U-44,590 diacetate, ha~ing a melting point
o
124-125 C. This compound is then labeled U-44,474.
U-44,474 is deacetylated to afford essentially pure
U-44,590 by the Zemplen procedure which is as follows.
The crystalline diacetate U-44,474 (24.90 9) is stirred
magnetically in methanol (400 ml), and methanolic sodium ~-
methoxide (Stauffer Chem. Co. 25%, 5 drops) is added.~ Stir-
ring is continued till the solid has dissol~ed (Drierite -
tube), and the solution allowed to stand at room temperature
for about 2 hours. Solid carbon dioxide, in small pieces~
is then added cautiously, with stirring, to neutralize the
methoxide, and the sol~ent is remo~ed on a rotatory e~apor- '~
ator at 40 and 15 mm. Hg., gi~ing a colorless oil. ~;
The residue is dissol~ed in methanol (50 ml) by warm-
ing on a steambath and diluted with ethyl acetate (50 ml).
Crystallization occurs on cooling. The solid (12.39 9) is
collected on a sintered filter at the pump, washed with ;-
methanol, and dried in a ~acuum o~en at 60 /15 mm. Hg.
Antibiotic U-44,590 crystallizes in colorless prismatic
needles, m.p. 141-142 . Remo~al of sol~ent from the fil-
trate plus washings on the e~aporator and crystallization ;
from methanol-ethyl acetate gi~es additional material

Part E can be substituted by acylating U-44,590 with any ~ ~
readily-a~ailable acylat;ng agent to gi~e acylated ~ -
U-44,590. This acylated U-44,590 product can then be
deacylated by methods well known in the art to yield
a purified preparation of U-44,590. Readily-a~ailable ~ '
acylating agents which can be used to acylate U-44,590,
and which are within the scope of this in~ention~ are as
disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,426,012, Columns 5 and 6. ;-~

As disclosed in Example 2, ~arious acylates of U-44,590
can be made, and these acylates are useful to upgrade
U-44,590. By following the procedure of Example 1, Part E.
the 3'g5'-di-esters of U-449590 are formed.
.:.
The 5'-mono-esters can be formed by standard procedures
using a minimum amount of acylating agent.
The 3'-mono-esters andphosphate can be formed by tritylating
U-44,590 to gi~e the 5'-trityl deri~ative, acylating this
compound with the desired acylating agent, selected from
those disclosed abo~e, to gi~e the 3'-mono-ester 5l-trityl
