Abstract

A process useful for the preparation of intermediates in synthesis or semi-synthesis of paclitaxel analogs wherein a starting taxane such as 10-deacetylbaccatin III is deacetylated at the C-4 position using a microorganism or an enzyme derived therefrom to provide 4-deacetyltaxanes, such as 4,10-dideacetylbaccatin III.
