Abstract
Acid catalysed epoxy ring opening of several lupane type triterpenoids leads to unusual allylic hydroxylation. The reaction involves the formation of epoxide by m‐chloroperbenzoic acid followed by the treatment of mineral acid. The simple methodology finds utility to introduce a hydroxyl function at the allylic position in these triterpenoids, which is otherwise quite difficult.
