Paclitaxel (50 mg, 1 equivalent) was introduced into a 50 ml round bottomed flask and dissolved in pyridine (3 ml). Next, succinic anhydride (30 mg, 5.1 equivalents) was added thereto. After stirring at room temperature for 16 hours, the mixture was diluted with 30% MeCN (30 ml). Then it was filtered and purified by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). After freeze-drying, paclitaxel-succinic acid (51.86 mg, yield 92.2%) was obtained.
