Abstract

3'-Substituted propanolursolates (1) were obtained by a reaction of ursolic acid with trimethylene bromide. This intermediate reacted with several N-containing compounds to afford a series of new derivatives 2a2j. The structures of new products were characterized by means of 1H NMR, 13C NMR, IR and MS techniques. The preliminary bioassay test shows that several compounds give a good antitumor activity, and most of them are better than that of parent ursolic acid. Among them, compound 2e shows the best activity.
