Abstract

A conformationally constrained analogue of the paclitaxel side-chain was synthesised in an enantioselective way from ethyl 1H-indene-2-carboxylate. Coupling with 7-triethylsilylbaccatin III and deprotection afforded 2',2''- methylenepaclitaxel, a novel analogue of the natural product retaining anticancer activity.
