10-Deacetylpaclitaxel, isolated from the bark of Taxus brevifolia, was converted into paclitaxel in one composite step (trimethylsilylation, acetylation, and desilylation) and in an overall yield of 80-85%. A series of 10-monoesters of 10-deacetylpaclitaxel are prepared by protection of the 2'- and
Paclitaxel, a natural product originally isolated from Taxus brevifolia, belongs to the most successful anticancer drugs. Nevertheless, its poor water solubility represents a considerable disadvantage in clinical use, and novel derivatives with improved pharmacological features are required. We
The needles of several yew species and cultivars were analysed by high-pressure liquid chromatography for paclitaxel, 10-deacetylpaclitaxel, cephalomannine, baccatin III, 10-deacetylbaccatin III and brevifoliol. About 750 samples were collected from five different locations in the Netherlands and
