Abstract
Three novel taxoids were synthesized from 1-deoxybaccatinVI and their crystal structures were determined by X-ray crystallographic techniques. The influence of C(7), C(10) and C(4) substituents of the tetracyclic moiety on molecular conformations were investigated. The result shows that 4-acetyl moiety plays an important role in the conformation of the diterpenoid core. All of these 1-deoxybaccatinVI derivatives crystallize in orthorhombic system, space group P212121. In the structures, the six-membered A ring exhibits the 1,4-di-planar conformation, the eight-membered B ring adopts boat–chair conformation and the six-membered C ring exhibits slightly distorted half-chair conformation.
