Friedelin and its derivatives, commonly known as friedelane triterpenoids, exhibit potential biological effects ranging from antimicrobial to anticancer to anti-HIV. To modify the A-ring of the pentacyclic triterpenoid, various transformative scopes have been utilized. Herein, some simple unprecedented transformative protocols have been accomplished towards furnishing 42 (25 new) A-ring modified pentacyclic friedelane triterpenoids. It is worth noting that the modifications include the all-new 2-homo derivatives. The one-pot BF3·OEt2-mediated oxidative transformation of friedelin to yield friedel-3-enol acetate as the major product was one of the key reactions. A group of isomeric A-ring modifications was produced on the basis of simple transformations on suitable friedelane-based molecules. The syntheses of the novel 2-homofriedelanes were envisioned from the transformative reactions of the designed triterpenoid 3-chlorofriedel-2-ene-2-carbaldehyde, which was isolated as the major product from the reaction of friedelin with the novel Vilsmeier-Haack reagent. New A-ring modified derivatives were also obtained due to further interesting transformations of 3-chlorofriedel-3-ene, isolated as side products from the same reaction. Again, considering the scope of the 3-chloro-2-enal moiety associated with the A-ring of the triterpenoid, some heterocycle-linked- (bonded to C3) 2-homofriedelane triterpenoids were synthesized. Various common reaction strategies were employed on suitable substrates to finally achieve a series of C2,C3-; C3,C4- and C2,C3,C4-functionalized as well as 2-homofriedelane triterpenoids with just one to four efficient steps.

Further investigation of the active components of the chloroform fraction of the seeds of Caesalpinia minax led to the isolation of a new cassane furanoditerpenoid, caesalmin H (1), together with two known furanoditerpenoid lactones, caesalmin B (2) and bonducellpin D (3). Reduction of the naturally abundant caesalmin D (9), E (10) and F (11) resulted in three new furanoditerpenoid derivatives 4-6. Phytochemical study of the stem of the same plant and subsequent reduction afforded two friedelane triterpenoids (7-8), which were identified by spectroscopic methods. Compounds 1-2 and 4-8 were corroborated by single crystal X-ray analysis. The factors governing the reduction of cassane furanoditerpenoids and friedelane triterpenoids were investigated by correlating the crystallographic results with density functional theory. The inhibitory activities of 2-8 on the Para3 virus were evaluated by cytopathogenic effects (CPE) reduction assay.
Cytotoxic terpenoids and flavonoids from Artemisia annua

, p. 54 - 57 (2007/10/02)
The cytotoxic activity of nine terpenoids and flavonoids isolated from Artemisia annua was tested in vitro on several human tumor cell lines. These compounds are artemisinin, deoxyartemisinin, artemisinic acid, arteannuin-B, stigmasterol, friedelin, friedelan-3β-ol, artemetin, and quercetagetin 6,7,3',4'-tetramethyl ether. Friedelane-type triterpenoids were isolated for the first time from this plant. Artemisinin and quercetagetin 6,7,3',4'-tetramethyl ether showed significant cytotoxicity against P-388, A-549, HT-29, MCF-7, and KB tumor cells.
