Abstract
Abstract A growth promoting composition for animals containing an erythromycin derivative wherein a dimethylamino radical of the 3'-position is converted into a primary amino radical, a secondary amino radical, a tertiary amino radical other than the dimethyl amino radical, or a quaternary ammonio radical. This composition does not exhibit the antimicrobial activity at all or show the extremely decreased antimicrobial activity, and has the excellent effect to improve the feed efficiency of domestic animals.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
306 words
A method of improving the growth of domestic animals which consists of administrating to said animals an effective growth promoting amount of a growth promoting composition containing a compound represented by the formula: ##STR103## wherein; R 1 is selected from the group consisting of; a hydrogen atom; and C 1-5 alkyl carboxylic radical; R 2 is a hydrogen atom; R 3 is a hydrogen atom; R 4 is a hydrogen atom; R a strands for the formula ##STR104## wherein R b is selected from the group consisting of: a hydrogen atom, C 1-6 alkyl and C 3-7 cycloalkyl radical R c is selected from the group consisting of: a hydrogen atom, C 1-6 alkyl, C 3-7 cycloalkyl, C 2-6 alkenyl and C 2-6 alkynyl radical each of which may be substituted with radicals selected from the group consisting of: hydroxy, carboxy, C 1-4 alkoxy-carbonyl, halogen and cyano, or together R b and R c form a C 3-7 cyclic alkylamino radical together with the adjacent nitrogen atom, with the proviso that R c stands for a atom, C 2-6 alkyl, C 3-7 cycloalkyl, C 2-6 alkenyl or C 2-6 alkynyl radical when R b is a methyl radical, or R a is represented by the formula: ##STR105## wherein each of R d , R e , and R f , which may be the same or different, are selected from the group consisting of: C 1-6 alkyl, C 3-7 cycloalkyl, C 2-6 alkenyl and C 2-6 alkynyl radical each of which may be substituted with radicals selected from the group consisting of: hydroxy, carboxy, C 1-4 alkoxy-carboxyl, halogen and cyano, or together R d and R e form a C 3-7 cyclic alkylamino radical together with the adjacent nitrogen atom, and X - stands for chlorine, bromine or iodine, in an acceptable solid or liquid carrier.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
306 words
A method of improving the growth of domestic animals which consists of administrating to said animals an effective growth promoting amount of a growth promoting composition containing a compound represented by the formula: ##STR103## wherein; R 1 is selected from the group consisting of; a hydrogen atom; and C 1-5 alkyl carboxylic radical; R 2 is a hydrogen atom; R 3 is a hydrogen atom; R 4 is a hydrogen atom; R a strands for the formula ##STR104## wherein R b is selected from the group consisting of: a hydrogen atom, C 1-6 alkyl and C 3-7 cycloalkyl radical R c is selected from the group consisting of: a hydrogen atom, C 1-6 alkyl, C 3-7 cycloalkyl, C 2-6 alkenyl and C 2-6 alkynyl radical each of which may be substituted with radicals selected from the group consisting of: hydroxy, carboxy, C 1-4 alkoxy-carbonyl, halogen and cyano, or together R b and R c form a C 3-7 cyclic alkylamino radical together with the adjacent nitrogen atom, with the proviso that R c stands for a atom, C 2-6 alkyl, C 3-7 cycloalkyl, C 2-6 alkenyl or C 2-6 alkynyl radical when R b is a methyl radical, or R a is represented by the formula: ##STR105## wherein each of R d , R e , and R f , which may be the same or different, are selected from the group consisting of: C 1-6 alkyl, C 3-7 cycloalkyl, C 2-6 alkenyl and C 2-6 alkynyl radical each of which may be substituted with radicals selected from the group consisting of: hydroxy, carboxy, C 1-4 alkoxy-carboxyl, halogen and cyano, or together R d and R e form a C 3-7 cyclic alkylamino radical together with the adjacent nitrogen atom, and X - stands for chlorine, bromine or iodine, in an acceptable solid or liquid carrier.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
61 words
The method of claim 1, wherein R d and R e form a cyclic alkylamino radical of 5 to 7 members, or both R d and R e are alkyl radicals having 1 to 5 carbon atoms and R f is an alkyl radical having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, an alkenyl or alkynyl radical having 2 to 6 carbon atoms.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
20 words

Claim 5
Dependent Claim
26 words
The method of claim 1, wherein the effective growth promoting amount of the compound in the growth promoting composition is from about 0.00001 to 0.1% (w/w).
