Synthesis of novel thiol taxoids based on the 7,10-di-(2,2,2-trichloroethyloxycarbonyl)-10-deacetylbaccatin III: both the syn and anti 10-deacetyl-2 '-deoxy-2 '-mercaptopaclitaxels

摘要

Two new kinds of docetaxel compound, with a mercapto group instead of the hydroxyl on the C13 side chain (both syn and anti), via the 7,10-di-(2,2,2-trichloroethyloxycarbonyl)-10-deacetylbaccatin III route, were synthesized. The uses of trans and cis oxazoline compounds, and their stereoselective ring-opening reactions with thiolacetic acid, were proved to be key steps. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
