Chemistry and Biology of Taxol

TL;DR: This account attempts to bring together in a cogent overview the chemistry and biology of taxol, one of the few organic compounds, which, like benzene and aspirin, is recognizable by name to the average citizen.

Free radicals in the synthesis of medium-sized rings

TL;DR: In this paper, free radical chemistry in the synthesis of seven-to-nine-membered rings is presented, and applications of free radical chemiques in the synthesisation of seven to nine-memered rings are discussed.

Chemie und Biologie von Taxol

TL;DR: Taxus brevifolia, e.g., polyoxygeniertes Diterpen aus der Pazifischen Eibe, wurde in den spaten sechziger Jahren bei einer umfassenden Untersuchung pflanzlicher Stoffe auf antineoplastische Wirkstoffe entdeckt, an which es scheint, das die Medien aufmerksam geworden sind and jede neue Entwicklung gespannt er

Radical Cyclization Reactions

TL;DR: Radical cyclization reactions are among the most powerful and versatile methods for the construction of mono-and polycyclic systems as discussed by the authors, which offer high functional group tolerance and mild reaction conditions combined with high levels of regio- and stereochemistry.
