Abstract
The synthesis of the title compound (5) is described. Protection of 4‐0‐(4, 6‐ethylidene‐α‐D‐glucopyranosyl)‐4′‐demethyl‐4‐epipodophyllotoxin (1) with benzylchloroformate in the presence of pyridine gave 4‐0‐(4, 6‐ethylidene‐α‐D‐glucopyranosyl)‐4′‐carbobenzyloxy‐4‐epipodophyllotoxin (2). Treatment of (2) with acetic acid‐water produced 4‐0‐(α‐D‐glucopyranosyl)‐4′‐carbobenzyloxy‐4‐epipodophyllotoxin (3). Reaction of [^14^C]acetaldehyde diethylacetal with (3) introduced the label in the 4′,6′‐ethylidene position (4). Hydrogenation using 30% palladium on carbon yielded the title compound (5) in an overall yield of 6%.
