Ursodeoxycholic acid is a bile acid that is naturally produced by humans. It is the only bile acid that contains 12-hydroxyl groups in its structure. Ursodeoxycholic acid can be synthesized in an efficient method from ursodeoxycholic acid, which is a racemic mixture of 12-hydroxy and 3-hydroxy forms. The hydroxy group on ursocholic acid is conjugated with glycine or taurine to produce ursodiol and tauroursodeoxycholic acid, respectively. These two compounds have similar properties to ursodeoxycholic acid but are more hydrophilic and have better absorption than their parent compound. Ursocholic acid can also be synthesized from cholic acid by epimerization at carbon 3 (C3). This process involves the conversion of the hydroxyl group at C3 into a hydroxy group, which can then undergo ursodeoxych
