Hopane is a natural chemical compound classified as a triterpene. It forms the central core of a variety of other chemical compounds which are collectively known as hopanoids. The first compound of the hopane family to be isolated and charaterised was hydroxyhopanone, found in dammar resin.^[2] The name derives from Hopea, a tree genus from which dammar is obtained.
