Abstract
The biotransformation of oleanolic (1) and maslinic (2) acids with Rhizomucor miehei, are described. The main action of the microorganism on both substrates was hydroxylation at C-30 (3-6). With oleanolic acid (1), R. miehei also hydroxylated at C-7 (4) or at C-1 (5), whereas with maslinic acid (2) the microorganism also produced 11-ene or 11α,12α-epoxy derivatives with an 28,13β-olide group, and an 11-oxoolean-12-ene derivative.
