Taxol (paclitaxel), a complex diterpene isolated from the bark of the western yew (Taxusbrevifolia), is currently considered the most exciting lead in cancer chemotherapy. 1-3 Taxotere (docetaxel), a semisynthetic analog, also has shown great promise. 4 Paclitaxel and docetaxel possess high cytotoxicity and strong antitumoractivity against different cancers which have not been effectively treated by existing antitumor drugs. 5’6 Paclitaxel was approved by FDA in late 1992 for the treatment of advanced ovarian cancer and is currently in phase II and III clinical trials for breast cancer and lung cancers. 2 Docetaxel is currently in phase II and III clinical trials in United States, Europe, and Japan. 6 A recent report on clinical trials of paclitaxel and docetaxel, however, has disclosed that these highly effective drugs have a number of undesired side effects as well as multidrug resistance (MDR). 1’5’7 Therefore, it is very important to develop new anticancer drugs which have less undesirable side effects, better pharmacological properties, and/or activity spectra against various tumor types different from those of these two drugs. Recently, a novel taxane diterpenoid, 14/3-hydroxy-10-deacetylbaccatin III (14/3-OH-DAB), was isolated from the needles of Taxus wallichiana Zucc. and other plant parts. 8 Because of an extra hydroxyl group at the C-14 position, 14/3-OH-DAB has proven to possess much higher water solubility thanthe usual 10-deacetylbaccatin III (DAB), which is currently used for the practical production of paclitaxel and docetaxel as mentioned above. Therefore, the new antitumor taxanes derivedfrom 14/3-OH-DAB can be expected to have substantially improved water solubility, bioavailability, and hydrophobicity-related drug resistance. 7 These improved pharmacological properties may well be related to the modification of undesirable toxicity and activity spectra against different cancer types. Syntheses of New Taxoids. A series of new taxoids were synthesized from 14/3-OH-DAB using a highly efficient and practical coupling protocol based on the/3-lactam synthon method developed in our laboratory. 9-11 Thus, the C-13 side chain precursors,(3R, 4S)-l-acyl-3-(EEO)-4-phenylazetidin-2-ones 1 (EE= ethoxyethyl) with extremely high enantiomeric purity, were obtained through our efficient chiral ester enolate-imine cyclocondensation method10’11 in four steps in 78-80% overall yields. The 7, 10-DiTroc-14/3-OH-DAB (3)(Troc= 2, 2, 2-trichloroethoxycarbonyl) were prepared by reacting with 4 equiv t State University of New York at Stony Brook. 1 UnivesitA di Torino.
