Notes:
A number of rearrangements in ring C of the pentacyclic triterpene ursolic acid is described. The products have been examined and the mechanism of their formation is discussed. One of these products, the hydroxy-acid VI, is of particular importance. It has been degraded by oxidation to products of low molecular weight, one of which, the acetoxy-ketone XX, has been obtained previously from rings A and B of α-amyrin.
