A semisynthesis of 7-deoxypaclitaxel 4 is described, starting from taxine 6 - the most abundant naturally occurring taxane diterpene fraction. A key step in this transformation is a tandem reaction: stereoselective osmylation of cinnamic ester 14/intramolecularly assisted methanolysis of 16, which gives the key intermediate 5, along with the optically pure ester 17 - a precursor for the synthesis of the paclitaxel side-chain. In this way, the cinnamoyltaxicine 9 is converted into 7-deoxybaccatin III 25 in 11 steps, and in 15% overall yield.

Three new 7-deoxydocetaxel derivatives have been prepared from natural taxine B and isotaxine B: the first one, 2-debenzoyl-9-dihydro-1,2-O-benzylidine-9,10-O-isopropylidene-7-deoxydocetaxel has a slight cytotoxicity and a weak microtubule disassembly inhibitory activity; the other two derivatives, 9-dihydro-9,10-O-isopropylidene-7-deoxydocetaxel and 7-deoxy-10-acetyldocetaxel are cytotoxic and reveal a good microtubule disassembly inhibitory activity.
