title: 4-Deacetyltaxol and 10-acetyl-4-deacetyltaxotere: synthesis and biological evaluation.
abstract: 4-Deacetyltaxol and 10-acetyl-4-deacetyltaxotere were synthesized for the first time from 7-(triethylsilyl)-4-deacetylbaccatin III. These analogs were found to be inactive in the microtubule assembly assay.
