Certain of the urethane derivatives, viz. those of formula I wherein R1 is phenethyl and their pharmaceutical^ acceptable salts, are produced by Streptomyces organisms designated as species X-14667, X-14573 and 10 X-14575. Streptomyces sp. X-14667 was isolated from a soil sample collected from Aesculapius temple, Epidau-rus, Greece. Streptomyces sp. X-14573 was isolated from a soil sample collected at the University of Arizona, Tempe, Arizona. Streptomyces sp. X-14575 was isolated 15 from a soil sample collected in a corn field in the Cats-kills, New York. Streptomyces sp. X-14667, X-14573 and X-14575 were deposited with the United States Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, Northern Regional Research Laboratories (NRRL) Peoria, Illinois, 20 USA as lyophilized vials of the cultures. The cultures, given the identification numbers NRRL 11336 (X—14667), NRRL 11337 (X-14573) and NRRL 11338 (X-14575) were all deposited at NRRL on June 29, 1978. Subcultures thereof have been deposited on August 23, 1979, as lyophilized 25 vials at American Type Culture Collection, Rockville, Maryland, USA and been given the identification numbers ATCC 31551 (X-14667), ATCC 31552 (X-14573) and ATCC 31553 s(X-14575) by ATCC.
The urethane derivatives are polyether antibiotics knd form a variety of pharmaceutically acceptable salts. These salts are prepared from the free acid form of the antibiotics by methods well-known for compounds of the polyether type in the art; for example, by washing the 35 free acid in solution with a suitable base or salt. Examples of such pharmaceutical^ acceptable basic substances capable of forming salts for the purpose of the pre
192228
sent invention include alkali metal bases, such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide and the like; alkaline earth metal bases, such as calcium hydroxide, barium hydroxide and the like; and ammonium 5 hydroxide. Alkali metal or alkaline earth salts suitable for forming pharmaceutically acceptable salts can include anions such as carbonates, bicarbonates and sulfates.
Examples of organic bases forming pharmaceutically 10 acceptable salts with the polyether compounds are lower alkyl amines, primary, secondary and tertiary hydroxy lower alkylamines such as ethylamine, isopropylamine, diethylamine, methyl-n-butylamine, ethanolamine and die-thanolamine.
An amine especially preferred is N-methylglucamine. Salts of N-methylglucamine are of special value because of their water-solubility which makes the.m amenable to parenteral use.
MORPHOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Representative strains of Streptomyces sp. X-14667, X-14573 and X-14575 have the following characteristics:
Sodium chloride tolerance, hydrolysis of casein and reduction of nitrate were determined by the methods recommended by Gordon and Smith, J. Bacteriol., 66, 41-48, 1953- Starch hydrolysis was determined after growth on 30 agar of Actinomyces broth (Difco) with 0.25 o/o soluble starch, and was tested by flooding the plates with io-dine-KI solution. Gelatin hydrolysis was tested according to Skerman, (A Guide to Identification of the Genera of Bacteria, The Williams and Wilkins Co., Balti-35 more, 1967) using Actinomyces broth (Difco) with 2 o/o agar in place of meat infusion agar. All tests were run at 28°C.
The standard ISP media of Shirling and Gottlieb were used for the description of growth and pigmentation (color determinations were made after two weeks of incubation at 28°C). Carbon utilization was also determined by the 5 method of Shirling and Gottlieb (Int. J. Syst. Bacteriol., 16, 313-340, 1966). A 24 hour old ISP-1 broth culture was homogenized and centrifuged to obtain a washed suspension for inoculation. The ability of the organism to grow at 10, 28, 37, 45 and 50°C was investigated by 10 inoculating broth of ISP-1 (Difco) medium. Cell wall analysis was performed by the method of Becker et al. (Applied Microbiol. 12, 421-423, 1964).
Microscopic examination. Streptomyces sp. X-14667, 15 X-14573 and X-14575 produce a substrate mycelium which does not fragment into spores, and an aerial mycelium,
which later forms spore chains. After 14 days of incubation at 28°C, the spore chains appear rectusflexibilis in form with greater than 50 spores per chain. Spores 20 are smooth and range in size from 0.70 by 0.5 ym to 1.35 by 0.38 ym for X-14667; 0.7 by 0.4 to 1.45 by 0.4 ym for x-14573; 0.8 by 0.5 ym to 0.6 by 1.0 ym for X-14575.
The cell wall of the cultures contains the LL iso-25 mer of diaminopimelic acid, which, together with the above characteristics, places these organisms in the genus Streptomyces (Lechevalier et al., Adv. Appl. Microbiol., 14, 47-72, 1971).
Macroscopic examination. In Tables 1, 2 and 3 are summarized the amount of growth, degree of sporulation, spore mass color, color of reverse substrate mycelium, and presence of a soluble pigment produced by Streptomyces sp. X-14667, X-14573 and X-14575 on various solid 35 media.

A comparison of the description of Streptomyces sp. X-14667, X-14573 and X-14575 with those of the Streptomyoes species described in Bergey's Manual (Buchanan and Gibbons, ed., Bergey's Manual of Determinative Bacteriology, 8th 5 ed., 748-829, 1974), H. Nonomura's key for classification (Jv Ferment. Technol., 52, 78-92, 1974) and Pridham and Lyons' classification (Dev. Ind. Microbiol. 10, 183— 221, 1969), showed that S. cinnamonensis is the closest relative to the above strains based on the following com-10 bination of criteria: gray spore mass color, rectus-flexi-bilis spore chain form, smooth spore surface, chromoge-nic reaction on ISP media 1 and 6, and carbon utilization characteristics. S. cinnamonensis is similar to X-14667, X-14573 and X-14575 in that they all produce monen-15 sin A and monensin B. However, S. cinnamonensis, differs from the above organisms since it does not produce any of the monensin phenethylurethanes.
The Streptomyces species X-14667, X-14573 and X-20 14575 described herein include all strains of Streptomyces which form the monensin phenethylurethanes of the present invention and which cannot be definitely differentiated from the strains NRRL 11336 (ATCC 31551), NRRL 11337 (ATCC 31552) and NRRL 11338 (ATCC 31553) and their 25 subcultures including mutants and variants. The claimed compounds are described herein and after this identification is known, it is easy to differentiate the strains producing these compounds from others.
Streptomyces X-14667, X-14573 and X-14575 when grown under suitable conditions produces monensin urethane derivatives. A fermentation broth containing Streptomyces X-14667, X-14573 or X-14575 is prepared by inoculating spores or mycelia of the organism producing the deriva-35 tives into a suitable medium and then cultivating under aerobic conditions. For the production of the derivatives, cultivation on a solid medium is possible but for produ-

cing in large quantities, cultivation in a liquid medium is preferable. The temperature of cultivation may be varied over a wide range, 20°-35°C, within which the organism may grow but a temperature of 26°-30°C and a substantially 5 neutral pH are preferred. In the submerged aerobic fermentation of the organism for the production of the monensin derivatives, the medium may contain as the source for carbon a commercially available glyceride oil or a carbohydrate such as glycerol, glucose, maltose, lactose, 10 dextrin, starch etc. in pure or crude states and as the source of nitrogen an organic material such as soybean meal, distillers' solubles, peanut meal, cotton seed meal, meat extract, peptone, fish meal, yeast extract, corn steep liquor etc. and when desired inorganic sources of 15 nitrogen such as nitrates and ammonium salts and mineral salts such as ammonium sulfate, magnesium sulfate and the like. It also may contain sodium chloride, potassium 'Chloride, potassium phosphate and the like and buffering agents such as sodium citrate, calcium carbonate or 20 phosphates and trace amounts of heavy metal salts. In aerated submerged culturing procedures an anti-foam agent such as liquid paraffin, fatty oils or silicone compounds is used. More than one kind of carbon source, nitrogen source or anti-foam source may be used for production 25 of the monensin derivatives.
The antibiotic activity of the urethane derivatives is illustrated by the following table (Table 6):

From the above Table 6 which indicates the jin vitro activity of the compounds of the present invention against certain gram-positive bacteria there is found the utility as an antibacterial agent useful in wash so-, lutions for sanitary purposes as in the washing of hands and the cleaning of equipment, floors or furnishings of contaminated rooms or laboratories.
Further, it has been found that certain of the urethane derivatives presently disclosed, viz. those of formula I wherein R1 is aryl, haloaryl, nitroaryl, alkylaryl or cycloalkyl and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts exhibit anti-coccidal activity versus the organism Eimeria tenella.
This anti-coccidal activity is demonstrated on laboratory chickens as follows:
Test method.-This test utilizes ten chickens per 20 drug group. Ten chickens are employed as a weight control and ten chickens as an infected control. The drug is given 48 hours in advance of the infection. One gm. of the test drug is mixed in a mechanical mixer with a sufficient amount of chicken feed to result in the desired 25 dosage. The infection consists or approximately 200,000 oocysts orally by pipette. The tests lasts for eleven days and.then the surviving birds are autopsied and examined for gross lesions in the ceca. The test birds are rated according to the number of survivors and the number of cecal lesions. The results are expressed as average degree of infection (A.D.I.). An average degree of infection of less than 2.5 is considered to be significant.

Testing for activity against Treponema hyodysente-25 riae, a cause of swine dysentery, consisted of inoculation of blood agar plates containing a series of two or fourfold dilutions of the urethane derivatives with tenfold dilutions of the T. hyodysenteriae strain. After 48 hours of incubation at 42°C in an anerobic atmosphe-30 re, Minimum Inhibitory Concentrations were recorded as the lowest concentrations of compound which completely inhibited the most dilute inoculum of each T. hyodysen-teriae strain.
The urethane derivatives have further been found to exhibit activity as growth promotants in ruminants.

Administration of the urethane derivatives, hereafter "Antibiotics" or "Antibiotic Compounds", prevents and treats ketosis as well as improves feed utilization in ruminants or swine. The causative mechanism of ketosis 5 is a deficient production of propionate compounds. A presently recommended treatment is administration of propionic acid or feeds which preferentially produce propionates. It is obvious that encouraging propionate production from ordinary feeds will reduce incidence of ketosis.
It has been found that the urethane derivatives increase the efficiency of feed utilization in ruminant animals when it is administered orally to the animals. The easiest way to administer the antibiotic is by mixing 15 it in the animal's feed.
However, the antibiotic can be usefully administered in other ways. For example, they can be incorporated into tablets, drenches, boluses, or capsules and dosed to the 20 animals. Formulation of the antibiotic compounds in such dosage forms can be accomplished by means of methods well known in the veterinary pharmaceutical art.
Capsules are readily produced by filling gelatin 25 capsules with any desired form of the desired antibiotic. If desired, the antibiotics can be diluted with an inert powdered diluent, such as a sugar, starch, or purified crystalline cellulose in order to increase their volume for convenience in filling capsules.
Tablets of the antibiotics are made by conventional pharmaceutical processes. In addition to the active ingredient a tablet usually contains a base, a disintegrator, an absorbent, a binder, and a lubricant. Typical 35 bases include lactose, fine icing sugar, sodium chloride, starch and mannitol. Starch is also a good disintegrator as is alginic acid. Surface active agents such
' : /; r?. $
as sodium lauryl sulfate and dioctyl sodium sulphosucci-nate are also sometimes used. Commonly used absorbents again include starch and lactose while magnesium carbonate is also useful for oily substance. Frequently used 5 binders are gelatin, gums, starch, dextrin and various cellulose derivatives. Among the commonly used lubricants are magnesium stearate, talc, paraffin wax, various metallic soaps, and polyethylene glycol.
The administration of the antibiotic compounds may be as a slow-pay-out bolus. Such boluses are made as tablets except that a means to delay the dissolution of the antibiotics is provided. Boluses are made to release for lengthy periods. The slow dissolution is assisted by choo-15 sing a highly water-insoluble form of the antibiotics. A substance such as iron filing is added to raise the density of the bolus and keep it static on the bottom of the rumen.
Dissolution of the antibiotics is delayed by use of a matrix of insoluble materials in which the drug is imbedded. For example, substances such as vegetable waxes, purified mineral waxes and water-insoluble polymeric materials are useful.
Drenches of the antibiotics are prepared most easily by choosing a water-soluble form of the antibiotic. If an insoluble form is desired for some reason, a suspension may be made. Alternatively, a drench may be formu-30 lated as a solution in a physiologically acceptable solvent such as a polyethylene glycol.
Suspensions of insoluble forms of the antibiotics can be prepared in nonsolvents such as vegetable oils 35 such as peanut, corn, or sesame oil, in a glycol such as propylene glycol or a polyether glycol; or in water, depending on the form of the antibiotics chosen.
Suitable physiologically acceptable adjuvants are necessary in order to keep the antibiotics suspended. The adjuvants can be chosen from among the thickeners,
such as carboxymethylcellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone, 5 gelatin, and the alginates. Many classes of surfactants serve to suspend the antibiotics. For example, lecithin, alkylphenol/polyethylene oxide adducts, naphthalenesul-. fonates, alkylbenzenesulfonates, and the polyoxyethylene sorbitan esters are useful for making suspensions in li-10 quid nonsolvents.
In addition many substances which affect the hydro-philicity, density and surface tension of the liquid can assist in making suspensions in individual cases. For 15 example, silicone anti-foams, glycols, sorbitol and sugars can be useful suspending agents.
The suspendable antibiotics may be offered to the grower as a suspension or as a dry mixture of the anti-20 biotics and adjuvants to be diluted before use.
The antibiotics may also be administered in the drinking water of the ruminants. Incorporation into drinking water is performed by adding a water-soluble or water-25 suspendable form of the antibiotics to the water in the proper amount. Formulation of the antibiotics for addition to drinking water follows the same principles as formulation of drenches.
The most practical way to treat animals with the antibiotic compounds is by the formulation of the compounds into the feed supply. Any type of feed may be medicated with the antibiotic compounds, including common dry feeds, liquid feeds, and pelleted feeds.
The methods of formulating drugs into animal feeds are well-known. It is usual to make a concentrated drug
1 9 22 2
premix as a raw material for medicated feeds. For example, typical drug premixes may contain from about one to about 400 grams of drug per pound of premix. The wide range results from the wide range of concentration 5 of drug which may be desired in the final feed. Premixes may be either liquid or solid.
The formulation of ruminant feeds containing the proper amounts of antibiotics for useful treatment is 10 well understood. It is necessary only to calculate the amount of compounds which it is desired to administer to each animal, to take into account the amount of feed per day which the animal eats and the concentration of antibiotic compounds in the premix to be used, and cal-15 culate the proper concentration of antibiotic compounds, or of premix, in the feed.
All of the methods of formulating, mixing and pelleting feeds which are normally used in the ruminant feed 20 art are entirely appropriate for manufacturing feeds containing the antibiotic compounds.
As has been shown, oral administration of the antibiotic beneficially alters the production of propionates 25 relative to the production of acetates in the rumen. It may therefore be postulated that the same treatment would also benefit monogastric animals which ferment fibrous vegetable matter in the cecum since it would be expected that a beneficial change in the propionate/acetate ra-30 tion would occur upon oral administration of the instant antibiotics. Horses, swine and rabbits are examplary animals which digest a part of their food by cecal fermentation .

Determination of volatile fatty acid (VFA) production
A bovine, surgically modified with a rumen fistula, is used as a source of rumen fluid. The integrity of the 5 rumen is maintained by a rumen cannula which is opened in order to obtain rumen fluid samples. The animal is fed twice daily an 80 o/o concentrate (mainly yellow corn with soybean oil meal and alfalfa meal added): 20 o/o roughage ration. The rumen fluid is obtained prior to 10 the morning feeding. The rumen fluid is strained through 4 layers of cheesecloth into a 1 gallon container and is kept under anaerobe quality C02. One thousand mis of the strained rumen fluid are added to 2000 mis of an ice cold buffer having the following composition:

The buffered rumen fluid is held in a 4 liter separatory funnel. In order to help maintain the anaerobic character of the rumen fluid and the homogeneity of the 25 buffered rumen fluid, anaerobe quality C02 is bubbled constantly through the fluid in a separatory funnel be- -ginning approximately 1 cm above the separatory funnel stopcock.
Two hundred and fifty ml Erlenmeyer flasks are used for individual fermentations. Each flask to which a compound will be added contains one gram of a finely ground 80 0/0 concentrate: 20 0/0 alfalfa hay ration. Flasks which are to be used as drug-free controls contain 1.07 35 grams of the finely ground ration. One ml solution of test compound dissolved in an appropriate solvent is added to each flask and allowed to sit"for 1/2 to 1 hour. Each
l
L i-
compound is examined in duplicate flasks at a final concentration of 50 ppm. Solvent without test compound is added to drug-free control fermentation flasks. Monensin at 10 and 50 ppm is used as a positive control in all 5 fermentations.
Eighty grams of buffered rumen fluid are added to each flask containing test compound and 85.93 grams are added to control flasks. Flasks to which all components 10 have been added are stoppered with a gas collection apparatus and left sitting at room temperature until all flasks have been completed. Six ml samples are withdrawn from all control flasks as the 0 time samples. The incubation period and the collection of gas evolved during 15 fermentation is initiated 10 minutes after the flasks have been placed in a 38°C water bath. Flasks are incubated with shaking (90 oscillations per minute) for 4 hours.
The volume of gas produced by each fermentation is 20 measured at 1/2 hour intervals. The manometric apparatus for collection of gas and measurement of the volti-me evolved has been described by Trei et al., J. Anim. Sci., 30, 825 (1970).
Rumen fluid is poured into 25 x 150 mm glass tubes and left in an ice bath for approximately 15 minutes to permit settling of particulate matter. The 6 ml quantity of rumen fluid is then added to a 2 ml quantity of 25 o/o (W/V) metaphosphoric acid in 13 nil polycarbonate cen-30 trifuge tubes. Each tube is stoppered and thoroughly mixed. The Tubes are left in an ice bath for 30 minutes and then centrifuged at 16,000 rpms for 10 minutes. A 1 ml quantity of the internal standard (0.25 o/o 2-methyl valeric acid) is then added to a 4 ml quantity of the 35 supernate. The resulting mixture is filtered through a 0.22 micron Millipore filter using a 5 ml syringe. The filtrate is sealed in one ml glass vials with Teflon lined
\92228
rubber crimp septa.
Each vial, representing each of the individual fermentations, is analyzed for volatile fatty acids.

Isolation of Monensin A, Monensin B and diphenethylurea
The whole broth from a 230 1 fermentation of Streptomyces sp. X-14667 was extracted at pH 7.6 with an equal volume of ethyl acetate. The solvent layer was separated and concentrated under reduced pressure to 1.0 liter.
The solvent concentrate was washed sequentually with equal volumes of 1 N HC1, water, saturated sodium carbonate, and water and then was dried over sodium sulfate. Further concentration and filtration gave a crystalline mixture containing Monensin A, Monensin B and diphenethylurea
and an oil.

The mixed crystals obtained as per Example 3 were dissolved in 100 ml of methylene chloride and washed with IN HC1. The solvent layer was concentrated to a small volume and on addition of n-hexane diphenethylurea (mp 136°C) was separated by filtration.
The filtrate (mother liquor) was diluted with diethylether, washed with saturated sodium carbonate, and upon concentration and addition of n-hexane crystalline monensin B (mp 276°C) was separated, and a second 15 crop of crystals was also recovered.
By repeated thin layer chromatography on silica gel (development solvent ethylacetate) it was determined that the second crop of crystals was a mixture of monensin 20 B and monensin A.

These structures of the end products were confirmed by synthesis from Monensin A and B respectively. The semi-synthetic material was prepared in both cases by dissolving 1 mmole of the antibiotic in benzene and adding 5 1.2 mmole of phenethyl isocyanate. After reacting overnight, the compounds were worked up by washing the reaction mixture with aqueous ^£00^ and evaporating the solvent under reduced pressure. The crude reaction products were purified by silica gel chromatography as described for 10 the fermentation end products. The semi-synthetic and fermentation products were shown to be identical by mp.,
[<x]D, IR, NMR and MS.
The phenethyl isocyanate used in the above reaction 15 can be prepared as follows:
40 grams of phenethyl amine in 300 ml of dry toluene saturated with dry HCl gas was mixed until a heavy white precipitate formed. An additional 200 ml of dry toluene 20 was added with 50 ml of phosgene (12.5 o/o in benzene). The mixture was refluxed (10 min.) and then 450 ml of phosgene was slowly added over 30 minutes and the mixture refluxed for 4 hours. The reaction mixture was allowed to cool to room temperature slowly and the solvent 25 removed in vacuo leaving a yellow oil. Vacuum distillation of the oil at 82° to 83°C/0.1 mm yielded 1.8 g of end product.

Ten millimoles (6.89 g) of monensin A hydrate was 35 dissolved in benzene (100 ml.) and to this solution an excess (11 mmole) of 4-bromophenyl isocyanate in an equal volume of benzene was added and the reaction mixture stirred at
room temperature. The course of the reaction was followed by silica gel TLC using ethyl acetate-n-hexane-ethanol (80:20:2) as development solvent and vanillin-phosphoric acid reagent for detection.
After one week, the reaction appeared complete and the reaction mixture was washed in turn with 0.5 N HCl, water, saturated Na2C03 and water. The benzene solution was dried (NagSO^) and evaporated under reduced pressure 10 to an amorphous solid. The derivative was crystallized from acetonitrile to yield the sodium salt of 4-bromophenyluret'nane of monensin A, mp 201 to 203° C, [a]D +65.3° (CHC13, C=1 o/o). Calcd. for C^ H66012NBrNa (891.87), o/o C, 57.90; H, 7.46; N, 1.57; Br, 8.96. Found: 15 o/oC, 58.57; H, 7-36; N, 1.23; Br, 8.90.
Example 7
Preparation of 4-bromophenylurethane of monensin A from 20 the sodium salt of monensin
Starting with 5 g. of the monensin A sodium salt (7 mmole) and 2 g. of 4-bromop'nenyl isocyanate, the reaction was run as in Example 6, but the sodium salt appeared 25 to react faster, and by TLC the reaction was complete after two days.
After work-up as before, there was produced 4-bromophenylurethane of monensin A.
