Abstract: The present invention provides new trans-9,10-dehydroepothilone C and trans-9,10-dehydroepothilone D based derivative compounds, compositions and methods of inhibiting cellular hyperproliferation and/or stabilizing microtubules in vitro and of treatment of hyperproliferative diseases in vivo. Also disclosed are methods of making the compounds.

Abstract: A method for making epothilones and epothilone analogs is described, as are novel compounds made by the method. One embodiment of the method was used to synthesize epothilone B by a convergent approach that entailed Wittig coupling of an ylide derived from phosphonium bromide with an aldehyde. The former was prepared from propargyl alcohol by a nine-step pathway which installed both trisubstituted double bonds with clean Z configuration. Macrolactonization of a resulting seco acid provided the following intermediate diene epothilone analog. Selective saturation of the 9,10-olefin and subsequent epoxidation provided epothilone B.

Abstract: Synthetic discodermolide analogs having utility as antiproliferative agents, having a structure represented by formula A where RA through RE and XA are as defined herein.

Abstract: Resorcylic acid lactones having a C5-C6 cis double bond and a ketone at C7 and other compounds capable of Michael adduct formation are potent and stable inhibitors of a subset of protein kinases having a specific cysteine residue in the ATP binding site.

Abstract: Compounds and methods useful for the synthesis of (+)-discodermolide, a naturally occurring microtubule stabilizing agent useful as an anti-cancer agent.
