Abstract—Glycyrrhetinic acid (GA, 3β-hydroxyl-11-oxo-olean- condensed with the appropriate pound such as 12-ene-29-oic acid, 1) isolated from Glycyrrhiza glabra was found cyclohexylamine, 2-aminopropanol, 3-aminopropanol, in the to have several pharmacological activities. A series of novel GA presence of triethylamine to give pounds 7a–7c. derivatives were designed and synthesized as antitumor agents. 1 Their structures were confirmed using MS and H-NMR. B. Spectrum Analysis Keywords-Glycyrrhetinic acid; derivatives; designed; Synthesis The structures of all pounds were determined by application of melting points, mass spectra and 1H-NMR spectral data. The structure assignment pounds 4c and I. INTRODUCTION 7a were supported paring the 1H-NMR. The 1H-NMR Glycyrrhetinic acid 1 (3β-hydroxyl-11-oxo-olean-12-ene- spectrum pound 4c displayed an added methyl group at δ (3H, s) and δ (H-3, m) peak. In addition, 29-oic acid), a pentacyclic triterpene skeleton, have been an compound 4c and 7a displ
