7‐epi‐Taxane has been achieved efficiently in gram scale from natural taxane via inversion of the 7‐hydroxyl group simply using Ag2O as catalyst and DMF as solvent. The catalyst could be quantitatively recovered by filtration without loss of catalytic activity. This condition is also applicable to the direct epimerization of taxane derivatives (e.g., docetaxel and paclitaxel) to 7‐epi‐taxane derivatives
