This review covers the occurrence and biological activities of all natural friedelane triterpenoids found between 1977 and March 2011. The biogeneses of dimeric friedelanes and several rearranged friedelanes are discussed. The pharmacological properties of representative compounds, including celastrol and correolide, have also been compiled, on the basis of 344 references.
