Make a clean breast of it : The generation of a library of pochonin D derivatives by a solid‐phase approach has led to the discovery of pochoxime (see scheme), a potent inhibitor of the heat‐shock protein 90, with over 100‐fold improved incellular activity. Pochoxime was found to be effective in breast tumor xenografts, leading to a reduction in the tumor size.
