Novel zearalin ethers are disclosed, which are represented by the formula: <IMAGE> wherein Y may be a single bond or double bond; A may be -CH2-, >C=O, or >CHOR1; R represents substituents on each of the aromatic rings in either the 2 or 4 positions and may be H or OR1; R1 may be lower alkyl, lower acyl, monocyclic aryl, or monocyclic aralkyl; R2 represents a substituent common to each of the aromatic rings at either of the 2 or 4 positions which are not substituted by R, and is represented by the formula -OR3O-, wherein R3 is a straight chain or branched chain hydrocarbon; and each aromatic ring may be unsubstituted in the 3 and 5 positions or may be further substituted with one or more halo substituents. Also discosed are methods for making the above compounds, and animal feeds containing such compounds. |
