ASYMMETRIC-SYNTHESIS OF THE TAXOL AND TAXOTERE C-13 SIDE-CHAINS

A practical and efficient asymmetric synthesis of the 3-benzoylamino-2- hydroxy-3-phenylpropionic acid derived side chain of the important anticancer agent taxol is described. The pivotal synthetic transformation relies upon the highly diastereoselective tandem lithium amide conjugate addition-elect...
