Total Synthesis of Baccatin III and Taxol

Abstract: An intramolecular Heck reaction (90 f 91) serves as the key step in the total synthesis of the titled compounds. The synthetic route is based on utilizing the Wieland-Miescher ketone (5) as a matrix to provide the C and D rings of the targets and to provide functionality implements for joining this sector to an A ring precursor (6). Catalytically induced enantiotopic control and early emplacement of the oxetane are other features of the route.

“…Besides our total synthesis, a number of other elegant total syntheses of Taxol have been reported by Holton et al [27], Danishefsky et al [28], Wender et al [29], Mukaiyama et al [30] and Kuwajima and co-workers [31]. Collectively, these accomplishments advanced the art and science of organic synthesis, enabled the design and synthesis of numerous analogues of Taxol, and facilitated biological investigations and drug discovery efforts in the area, including identification of biological tools and drug candidates.…”

“…One of the interesting reactions to synthesize substituted biphenyls 1 involves the Suzuki cross-coupling reaction, a protocol of which has been disclosed elsewhere. 2 The carbon-carbon bond construction method 3,4,5,6 in organic synthesis has allowed chemists to assemble complex molecular frameworks to prepare numerous natural products, 7 drug precursors, 8 biological compounds, 9 organic products 10 and herbicides. 11 Lately, the conditions developed for the cross-coupling reaction have many desirable features for large scale syntheses and are persuasively used in the industrial synthesis of pharmaceutical and chemical products.…”

“…The palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of olefins with aryl or vinyl halides, known as the Heck reaction, is a well-known example for forming carbon-carbon bonds or introducing functional groups into substrate molecules. The Heck reaction has found applications in the preparation of a wide spectrum of organic chemicals, materials, and natural products [1][2][3][4].…”
