Abstract:
Two new taxoids (5 and 6) were obtained by isolating impurities in aziditaxel, and their structures were characterized based on data analysis of (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, HPLC-MS, and through comparison with literature. In order to test their cytotoxicities against human nonsmall lung cancer cell lines (A549), sufficient amounts of compounds 5 and 6 were obtained by semi-synthesis and both of them showed equipotent cytotoxiesty compared with taxol, docetaxel, and aziditaxel.
