Isolation and chemical synthesis of a major, novel biliary bile acid in the common wombat (Vombatus ursinus): 15α-hydroxylithocholic acid

The major bile acids present in the gallbladder bile of the common Australian wombat (Vombatus ursinus) were isolated by preparative HPLC and identified by NMR as the taurine N-acylamidates of chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) and 15α-hydroxylithocholic acid (3α,15α-dihydroxy-5β-cholan-24-oic acid).
