ABSTRACT
The synthesis and X-ray diffraction established the structure of (7R,8S)-(see text for symbol)-(13R,17R)-trioxolaneabietic acid. Predicted by the computer system PASS antineoplastic activity and the ability to induce apoptosis, a mechanism of cell death, is correlated with experimentally shown cytotoxic activity against malignant cell line MeWo. Results of tests on animals have shown that abietic acid and its 9R,11S-epoxy-12R,15R-trioxolane derivative have anti-inflammatory and antiulcer activity in the absence of adverse effects on animal organisms.

The synthesis of a new group of maleopimaric acid amides containing fragments of the methyl esters of amino acids, aliphatic amines, imidazole and N-methylpiperazine was carried out. Ozonolysis of methyl maleopimarate flows through the cleavage of double bond C18(19) and the disclosure of anhydrous cycle with formation of secotriacid. As a result of screening of anti-inflammatory and antiulcer activity of maleopimaric acid derivatives new effective compounds such as methyl esters of maleopimaric acid and product of ozonolysis - diterpenic secotriacid, maleopimaric acid amide with L-leucine were revealed. An important advantage of the compounds studied is the low toxicity and the presence of bidirectional activity in the absence of adverse effects on the animal.
