, p. 6435 - 6438 (1996)
The rearrangement of the major taxane 9-dihydro-13-acetyl-baccatin III (1) to new abeo-taxanes (2,4-6) has been studied. A sequence of reactions has been inferred. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic techniques.
Acid catalyzed rearrangement and acyl migration studies on 9-dihydro- 13-acetylbaccatin-III, a major taxane from Taxus canadensis

A detailed investigation of the rearrangement of the major taxane from Taxus canadensis enables to suggest the sequence of the reactions involved: 9-dihydro-13-acetylbaccatin III - abeo-taxanes with intact oxetane and acyl migration - abeo-taxanes with intact oxetane and deacylation - abeo-taxanes with opening of the oxetane and various acyl migrations including two unusual benzoyl shifts.

ABT-271, 1, has been identified as a promising anticancer agent. ABT-271 is a novel taxane possessing a C9-(R)-hydroxyl group as opposed to a C9-ketone which is present in Taxol and Taxotere. To further evaluate ABT-271 as a potential anticancer agent, an efficient synthesis was developed which allows the large scale synthesis of ABT-271. Ketalization of the 7,9-diol of 9-DHAB-III, 2, allows selective removal of the C13-acetate with phenyllithium. The resulting C13-hydroxyl group is then acylated using LiHMDS and β-lactam 22 to give ABT-271 in protected form. The protecting groups were removed first by acidic hydrolysis followed by basic hydrolysis to provide ABT-271. Application of this synthetic sequence provided over 600 g of ABT-271, 1.
