Abstract
Allylic oxidation of avermectin B-1 and C-4''-substituted avermectin B -1 analogues at C-4a followed by derivatization of the C-4a oxygen pro vides compounds that have an improved safety profile, as judged by mou se LD(50) data, and are substantially more potent than avermectin B-1 against flies.
