Abstract

Paclitaxel 1, one of the most important chemotherapeutic agents with promising antitumor activity, has a sparing water-solubility. This is one of the major drawbacks of 1, since the detergent required for solubilization of 1 causes hypersensitivity reaction. Previously, we have developed a novel class of "O–N intramolecular acyl migration" -type water-soluble prodrugs of HIV-1 protease inhibitors. Hencewe designed novel water-soluble paclitaxel prodrug, isotaxel 2, which is a 2'-O-benzoyl isoform of paclitaxel. Isotaxel was synthesized via coupling of an oxazolidine derivative of phenylisoserine with a Baccactin III derivative and showed 1,800-fold higher water-solubility than paclitaxel. Parent drug 1 was released promptly and completely through simple pH-dependent chemical mechanism,by means of O-N intramolecular acyl migration, under physiological conditions. Since 2 has no additional functional auxiliaries released during the conversion to 1, this would be a great advantage in toxicology and medical economics.
