, p. 1303 - 1310 (2007/10/02)
A synthesis of (1R/S,3R/S,8S/R)-8-methyltricyclopentadec-11-en-2-one, which is the ring system of the taxane natural products and contains 3 chiral centres having the required relative configuration, is described.

, p. 253 - 255 (2007/10/02)
The synthesis of a tricyclo3,8>pentadecane system which has the same relative stereochemistry about its chiral centres as the taxane natural products is reported.
