| Summary: | Several Betulinic acid peptides here synthesized by incorporating BA with neutral amino acids using standard coupling protocols in the presence of HoBt, HBtu and DiPEA. In addition enantiopure betulinic-acid- cyclohexene silyl ether peptides was successly synthesized in a good yield. Futher olefinic cleavage reaction, afforded betulinic acid -y- butylrolactone peptides, which undergoes benzylation reaction to furnish desired end product benzylated BA-y-butylrolactone product. Five new synthesized betulinic acid derivatives were tested for their in vitro cytotoxicity against human corrected carainoma cell lines ( HT116). The result of preliminary biological activities showed that three compounds betulinic acid-cyclohexene silyl ether peptides, benzylated betulinic acid-alanine peptide, and benzylated betulinic acid-y-butylrolactone peptides with more hydrosolubility compare to betulinic acid, possessed impressive cytotoxicity with the IC50 values of 50.00, 36.67, 25.33 (ug/ml) respectively |
