Abstract

A novel method for the partial synthesis of the rare triterpenoid, 3-epihydroxy lup-20(29)-en-19(28)-olide, and 1 from betulinic acid is reported. The binding efficiency, mode of binding for different compounds to the central catalytic domain of topoisomerase IIα, was calculated from a complete 3D molecular docking study on the crystal structure of the enzyme (1bgw, pdb). The compounds 1, 2b, and 2d showed a dose-dependent inhibition of catalytic activity of topoisomerase IIα.
