'''Betulin''' (lup-20(29)-ene-3β,28-diol) is an abundant naturally occurring [[triterpene]]. It is commonly isolated from the [[bark]] of [[birch]] trees and forms up to 30% of the dry weight of the extractive <ref>{{citation | title = Isolation of Betulin and Rearrangement to Allobetulin A Biomimetic Natural Product Synthesis | first1 = Brian | last1 = Green | first2 = Michael D. | last2 = Bentley | first3 = Bong Y. | last3 = Chung | first4 = Nicholas G. | last4 = Lynch | first5 = Bruce L. | last5 = Jensen | journal = J.

It can be converted to [[betulinic acid]] (the [[alcohol]] group replaced by a [[carboxylic acid]] group), which is biologically more active than betulin itself. |

The compound in the bark gives the tree its white color which appears to protect the tree from [[Midwinter|mid-winter]] overheating by the [[sun]]. As a result, birches are some of the northernmost occurring deciduous trees. |

Recent clinical studies{{By whom|date=August 2010}} have verified that [[red alder]] ''([[Alnus rubra]])'' contains betulin and [[lupeol]], compounds shown to be effective against a variety of [[tumor]]s. [[Indigenous peoples of the Americas|Native Americans]] used red alder bark to treat [[poison oak]], [[insect bite]]s, and [[Irritation#Skin|skin irritations]]. [[Blackfeet Indians]] used an [[infusion]] made from the bark of red alder to treat [[Lymphatic disease|lymphatic disorders]] and [[tuberculosis]].<ref>{{citation | first = Gregory L. | last = Tilford | title = Edible and Medicinal Plants of the West | publisher = Mountain Press | location = Missoula, MO | year = 1997 | isbn = 0-87842-359-1}}.</ref> |
