Copalic acid is a chemical compound that is a constituent of copaiba oil, an oleoresin extracted from trees in the genus Copaifera . [1] It is a diterpenoid of the labdane class. [2]

Because copaiba oil has some uses in traditional herbal medicine, there has been scientific interest in investigating the potential pharmacology of its constituents, including copalic acid. [2] [3] In addition, synthetic derivatives of copalic acid have been investigated for their potential pharmacology as well. [4]

Several laboratory syntheses of copalic acid have been reported. [5] [6]
