Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of producing paclitaxel from a protected coupled ester compound having a formula: wherein P>1< is a hydrogenatable protecting group, comprising deprotecting the 7-O-position and 3'-N-position of the protected coupled ester compound to form a first intermediate compound, benzoylating the first intermediate compound at the 3?1>-N-position thereby to form a second intermediate compound, and deprotecting the second intermediate compound by replacing P1 with hydrogen in the presence of an acid.
