title: Synthesis, utility, and X-ray crystal structure of novel complexes of baccatin III with imidazole and 2-propanol.
abstract: Baccatin III forms crystalline complexes 4 and 5 with imidazole and 2-propanol, respectively. These compounds are useful in the purification of baccatin III from mixtures of taxanes derived from plant-cell fermentation.
