Infobox references

The amyrins are three closely related natural chemical compounds of the triterpene class. They are designated α-amyrin (ursane skeleton),^[3] β-amyrin (oleanane skeleton) ^[4] and δ-amyrin. Each is a pentacyclic triterpenol with the chemical formula C₃₀H₅₀O. They are widely distributed in nature and have been isolated from a variety of plant sources such as epicuticular wax. In plant biosynthesis, α-amyrin is the precursor of ursolic acid and β-amyrin is the precursor of oleanolic acid.^[5] All three amyrins occur in the surface wax of tomato fruit.^[6]^[7] α-Amyrin is found in dandelion coffee.
