CONVERSION 9-DIHYDRO-13-ACETYLBACCATIN III TO 10-DEACETYLBACCATIN III
The present invention relates to a process is provided for the conversion of 9-dihydro-13-acetylbaccatin to 10-deacetylbaccatin III. The process includes four specific interrelated steps. The first step involves protecting the 7-hydroxyl group of 9-dihydro-13-acetylbaccatin and converting that 7-hydroxyl-protected 9-dihydro-13-acetylbaccatin to 7, 13-diacetyl-9-dihydrobaccatin III. The second step involves reacting that 7, 13-diacetyl-9-dihydrobaccatin III with 4-methylmorpholine N-oxide in a suitable solvent and oxidizing that reaction product to yield 7, 13-diacetylbaccatin. The third step involves deacetylating that 7, 13-diacetyl-9-dihydrobaccatin III to yield 7-acetylbaccatin III. The fourth and final step involves converting that 7-acetylbaccatin III to 10-deacetylbaccatin III.
