Friedelane is an aliphatic chemical compound and natural product. Its formula is C30H52. [1] Friedelane is a triterpene, and it and similar compounds are found in several plants. [2] One such compound found in the bark of cork oak, friedelin, is considered a "friedelane-like", [3] and has noted antimicrobial properties. [4] It is also a biological precursor of celastrol. [5]

Occurrence

Friedelane is found in the wood of Calophyllum tomentosum , [6] as well as the flowers of Pongamia pinnata . [7]
