Abstract
There are disclosed avermectin derivatives in which position 13 of the avermectins has been inverted from the normal (alpha) stereoschemistry to the epimeric 13-beta stereochemistry. The synthetic 13-epi analogs are derived from the corresponding aglycones which in turn are prepared by chemical modification of naturally occurring avermectins. The compounds are active antiparasitic agents and compositions for that use are disclosed.
