Mh. Kress et al., A CONCISE SYNTHESIS OF ENANTIOMERICALLY PURE TAXANE C-RING VIA THE [2,3] WITTIG REARRANGEMENT, Tetrahedron letters, 34(50), 1993, pp. 8047-8050
An efficient, stereoselective synthesis of an enantiomerically pure C-
ring precursor 14-S of O-cinnamoyltaxicins-I and -II has been achieved
from 3-methyl-2-cyclohexen-1-ol, using a [2,3] Wittig rearrangement a
s the key step.
