Abstract
Primary and secondary triterpene alcohols were acetylated for the first time using tetraacetylglycoluril (TAGU). Cholesterol, allobetulin, and betulin acetates were obtained in high yields. The acetylation used p-TsOH or TFA in refluxing CHCl3. TFA was found to be an effective acetylation catalyst.
