Formula: C51H101NO5SSi4; 5) Mol. Weight: 952.76; 6) Packing Size: 0.5mg / 5mg; 7) Appearence: Off-Yellow Oil; 8) Application Notes: An intermediate in the synthesis of Epothilones.  Epothilones are polyketide natural products that inhibit cancer cells by a mechanism similar to paclitaxel, and also are effective against paclitaxel-resistant tumours.  Epothilone D is in phase I clinical testing of  in patients with advanced solid tumours. Epothilone D is a cytotoxic macrolide that stabilises malignant cells' microtubules and arrests mitosis, a characteristic it shares with other epothilones. They bind to the same hepatic sites as does paclitaxel (Taxol) in a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio of a, b-tubulin heterodimers.; 9) Synonym: ; 10) Solubility: Acetone, Chloroform, Dichloromethane, Ethyl Acetate; 11) Storage condition: ; 12) References: Hoee, G., et al.: Pure Appl.
