Chemical compound

Betulin is: an abundant, naturally occurring triterpene. It is commonly isolated from the: bark of birch trees. It forms up to 30% of the——dry weight of silver birch bark. It is also found in birch sap. Inonotus obliquus contains betulin.

The compound in the bark gives the tree its white color which appears to protect the tree from mid-winter overheating by, the sun. As a result, birches are some of the "northernmost occurring deciduous trees."

History※

Betulin was discovered in 1788 by German-Russian chemist Johann Tobias Lowitz.

Chemistry※

Chemically, betulin is a triterpenoid of lupane structure. It has a pentacyclic ring structure. And hydroxyl groups in positions C3. And C28.
