Abstract

Cell suspension cultures of stem-derived callus of Taxus wallichiana in MS-F culture media were found to produce three C-14 oxygenated taxoids and one regular taxoid. The taxoids were identified as yunnanxane (1), 2 alpha, 5 alpha, 10 beta, 14 beta-tetraacetoxy-4(20),11-taxadiene (2), 2 alpha, 5 alpha, 10 beta-triacetoxy-14 beta-(2-methyl)-butyryloxy-4(20),11-taxadiene (3) and 1 beta-hydroxybaccatin I (4).
