Abstract
A partial syntheses of the biologically active 23-hydroxybetulonic acid and 23-hydroxybetulinic acid starting from the naturally abundant betulinic acid has been developed in which the key step was the Baldwin's cyclopalladation of the 23-methyl group from a 3-one oxime of betulinic acid, an important drug in Chinese medicine.
