A one-pot trisilylation step to protect three hydroxyl groups of baccatin III (1), followed by hydride ester cleavage and base hydrolysis of a triethylsilyl ether at C13, provides efficient access to a key intermediate 9 (top path). This route removes

The three-dimensional structure of a unique polymorph of the anticancer drug paclitaxel (Taxol) is established using solid state NMR (SSNMR) tensor ((13)C & (15)N) and heteronuclear correlation ((1)H-(13)C) data. The polymorph has two molecules per asymmetric unit (Z' = 2)
Illumina second generation sequencing is now an efficient route for generating enormous sequence collections that represent expressed genes and quantitate expression level. Taxus is a world-wide endangered gymnosperm genus and forms an important anti-cancer medicinal resource, but the large and

The comparison between measured and conformer-weighted calculated VCD spectra of the baccatin III ring of paclitaxel and visualization of the conformations using the new code for structure-activity relationships are reported for the first time. The VCD spectrum of paclitaxel closely

A 36-step synthesis was carried out in automated synthesizers to provide a synthetic key intermediate of taxol. A key step involved a microwave-assisted alkylation reaction to construct the ABC ring system from an AC precursor. Subsequent formation of the D
