Triterpene 2-deoxy-alpha-D-hexopyranosides were synthesized by the glycosylation of oleanane triterpene alcohols with D-glucal and D-galactal acetates in the presence of di(sym-collidine)iodonium perchlorate with subsequent deiodination and deacetylation of the resulting 2-deoxy-2-iodo-alpha-D-glycosides. 2-Deoxy-alpha-D-arabino- and -lyxo-hexopyranosides of methyl glycyrrhetinate demonstrated pronounced antiulcer activity and stimulated reparative skin regeneration in rats more effectively than glycyrrhizic acid and methyluracil.
