TamifluⓇ (Oseltamivir), C16 H28 N2O4, an antiviral drug used to treat influenza (Figure 1).
The preparation of Tamiflu begins with the extraction of shikimic acid from the seedpods of
the Chinese spice, star anise (Illicium verum) (Figure 2). From 2.6 g of star anise, 0.13 g of
shikimic acid can be obtained and used to produce one capsule containing 75 mg of
Tamiflu . The usual adult dosage for treatment of influenza is two capsules of Tamiflu daily
for 5 days.
