Abstract
In this paper, we report on the conformational analysis of several polyether triterpenes with a squalene carbon skeleton which exhibited significant cytotoxic activity using a Monte Carlo conformational search and spectroscopical data. These studies indicate that the conformation of the side chain C-14/C-19 and the arrangement and direction of this chain may be among the fundamental factors related to the activity of this type of metabolites.Entities:
