A novel tetracycline antibiotic, Sch 33256, was isolated from a culture broth of a new species of Actinomadura. The antibiotic was isolated by solvent extraction, Sephadex G-25 column chromatography and crystallization. The structure was determined by comparison of the spectra with that of chlortetracycline. Spectroscopic analysis of the compound yielded 2'-N-methyl-8-methoxychlortetracycline as the proposed structure.
