Background Art
Asiatic acid, madecassic acid and asiaticoside(trisaccharide of asiatic acid), which are compounds extracted from Centella asiatica, were isolated firstly by Bontems in 1941 [J. E. Bontems, Bull. Sci. Pharmacol, 49, 186-91(1941)] and their structures were defined by Polonsky [J. Polonsky, Compt. Rend., 232, 1978-80(1951); J. Polonsky, Bull. Soc. Chim., 173-80(1953)]. The extracts including asiatic acid and asiaticoside from Centella asiatica have been used for treatment of hurted skin or chronic ulcer since old times, and also for treatment deformation of skin due to tuberculosis or leprosy [P. Boiteau, A. Buzas, E. Lederer and J. Polonsky, Bull. Soc. Chim., 31, 46-51(1949)]. It is reported that the mechanism of these compounds for treating hurted skin comprises activating cells of Malpighean layer and inducing keratinization. [May. Anne, Eur. J. Pharmacol, 4(3), 331-9(1968)] Madecassol, a commercially available medicine for treating skin disease, also is a mixture of three components, i.e., asiaticoside (40%) with asiatic acid and madecassic acid (60%). It is known that remedial effect mainly comes from asiaticoside, trisaccharide of asiatic acid among the three components, and it is reported that asiatic acid itself has no remedial effect. [Kiesswetter, Wien. Med. Wochschr., 114(7), 124- 6(1964)] However, there has been a report proving that the above result is due to the difference in the absorption process of there compounds in body, and the material practically showing the remedial effect is asiatic acid itself. [L. F. Chasseaud, B. J. Fry, D. R. Hawkins, J. D. Lewis, T. Taylor and D. E. Hathway, Arzneim-Forsch, 21(9), 179-84(1971)] Thus, the synthesis and remedial effect of asiatic acid becomes the center of interest. However, total synthesis of asiatic acid requires quite many synthetic steps when starting from a simple starting material, so that the synthesis involves many problems due to its complicated process and economical disadvantage. Disclosure of the Invention
The present inventors have synthesized various asiatic acid derivatives, starting from asiatic acid obtained from Centella asiatica. They also found that the derivatives have excellent effect for treating wound and completed the present invention.
The present invention relates to asiatic acid derivatives represented by following formula 1 ,

The process for preparing the asiatic acid derivatives according to the present invention is illustrated here-in-below:
Method 1
Titrated extracts of Centella asiatica (TECA) is hydrolyzed to obtain a mixture of asiatic acid and madecassic acid (2), and the mixture is reacted with 2,2-dimethoxypropane in the presence of acid catalyst. The reaction product is purified by column chromatography to isolate 3,23-0- isopropylidene asiatic acid (3) in which 3,23-dihydroxy group is protected. The obtained product is treated with diazomethane to synthesize methyl 3,23-O-isopropylidene asiatate (4). [See Scheme 1.]

Method 3
The hydroxy group at 2-position of compound (4) obtained above is treated with sodium hydride and imidazole, to be converted to alkoxide group. Carbon disulfide is added thereto and the mixture is heated under reflux, and then treated with methyl iodide to obtain a xanthate (7). The resultant compound is treated with tributyltin hydride and catalytic amount of AIBN to give methyl 2-deoxy-3,23-0-isopropylidene asiatate (8), which is then deprotected to obtain methyl 2-deoxyasiatate (9). The compound (9) above is hydrolyzed to obtain 2-deoxyasiatic acid (10). From 2-deoxyasiatic acid (10), 2-deoxy-3,23-0-isopropylidene asiatic acid (11) is synthesized, which is then reacted under the condition described in Method 2, to synthesize a compound represented by general formula (12). [See Scheme 3.]

Method 7 2,3-Hydroxy group of asiatic acid is converted to 2,3-epoxy group, and the obtained compound is reacted with a variety of nucleophilic compound to cause ring opening of epoxy group to prepare a series of novel compounds according to the present invention. In other words, the compound (4) obtained above is reacted with methanesulfonyl chloride to obtain methyl 2-0-methanesulfonyl-3,23-0-isopropylidene asiatate (18), which is then treated with PTSA to give methyl 2-0- methanesulfonyl asiatate (19). The obtained compound is then treated with potassium carbonate in methanol solvent to synthesize methyl 2,3- epoxyasiatate (20). The compound (20) is treated with lithium iodide trihydrate and acetic acid to synthesize methyl 2- -iodo-2-deoxyasiatate (21) of which epoxide has been opened. [See Scheme 7.]

The obtained mixture was dissolved in minimum amount of 60% methanol, in a water bath at 100 °C , and then cooled at room temperature to give pure asiaticoside as needle-like crystalline. (m.p.: 230 - 240°C )
Separately, the extract (62 g) was dissolved in methanol (700 ml), and 5N sodium hydroxide solution(50ml) was added thereto, and the resultant mixture was heated under reflux for 10 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, neutralized, filtered and dried to obtain a mixture (2, 43g) of asiatic acid and madecassic acid.
Example 2: Preparation of 3,23-O-Isopropylidene asiatic acid (3) The mixture (12 g) of asiatic acid and madecassic acid, and p- toluenesulfonic acid (200 mg) were dissolved in anhydrous DMF (100 ml), and 2,2-dimethoxypropane (5 ml) was added thereto by injection. The resultant mixture was stirred at room temperature for 14 hours, and then neutralized and concentrated under reduced pressure to remove the solvent. After extracting, washing and drying, the residue was purified by column chromatography (dichloromethane:methanol = 30: 1) to obtain 8.04 g of 3,23-O-isopropylidene asiatic acid (3).

Experimental Example 1: Effect of the compounds according to the present invention on treating wound Formulation : Ointment
The asiatic acid derivative (200 mg) according to the present invention was accurately weighed and placed in a 20 ml syringe. Propylene glycol (6 g), glycol stearate (3 g) and white petrolatum (1 g) were accurately weighed and added thereto. The content of the syringe was completely melted in a water bath at 80 °C , and stirred for about 5 minutes so that the active component could be homogeneously dispersed in three kinds of vehicles mentioned above. Separately, purified water (10g) warmed to 80 °C was placed in another syringe. The above two syringes were connected by a threeway connector, and injecting from both side was repeated about 20 times to homogenize the content. The homogenized content was put into a vessel and slowly solidified at room temperature. Experimental method
In order to examine the effect of newly systhesized asiatic acid derivatives, asiatic acid, madecassic acid and asiaticoside isolated from natural substance on treating wound, experimental wound have been made on rats, and the results have been watched. Among several measuring processes for wound-treating effect, which are based on the logic that the wound or the lesion owing to necrosis is treated by reproduction of tissue such as granulation, measuring of tensile strength is due to the fact that the tensile strength increases constantly until the recovering site becomes open again. In the measurement, the strength up to the point when the wounded site becomes open is measured, while both sides of the wound are pulled. It is known that the measuring of tensile strength reflects the quality and rate of reproduction in case of incised wound very well. In Table 1, the effect of synthesized asiatic acid derivatives and that of titrated extracts of Centella asiatica (TECA), which is the main component of commercially available madecassol ointment, on treating wound were examined and compared, by using measurement of tensile strength.
Table 1. Effect of novel asiaticoside derivatives on treating wound

As can be seen from the Experimental Examples described above, the asiatic acid derivatives according to the present invention showed excellent effect on treating wound.
