Abstract
Herein, we present a sustainable strategy to access the ursane class of natural products. Our complexity-controlling synthesis (CCS) approach employs ursolic acid – readily obtained from apple pomace, a waste product of apple juice production – as sustainable feedstock to access 24 natural products of the ursane family in short synthetic sequences (1–12 steps) and good yields (up to 98%).
