Preparation of Betulinic Acid Derivatives in Organic Solvents
Betulinic acid has been identified as a potential natural product in medical field. The objectives of this research were to discover a new method for the modification of betulinic acid’s functional groups (C-3 and C-28 position) and to evaluate its activity against cancer cell. Modification at C-3 p...
