Abstract:

Acetoxy-substituted triene(6) was synthesized from oleanolic acid(1) via methyl esterification of 17-carboxylic acid, benzoylation of 3-hydroxy, oxidation of 12-double bond by O3, dehydrogenation with Br2/HBr, enol acetylation of carbonyl group, and ring-C opening under UV light. Oxidations of compound 6 with different oxidants such as O3, meta-cholorperoxybenzoic acid(mCPBA), H2O2, t-BuOOH and Na2S2O8, yield decalintype chiral synthons, epoxides, and/or lactone of oleanolic acid derivatives.

Key words: oleanolic acid, triene, synthesis, oxidation
