Apigenin-7-O-β-d-glycosides 1-8 and acacetin-7-O-β-d-glycosides 9-16 were semisynthesized from 4′-O-benzyl apigenin 17 and acacetin 18 by glycosidation and deprotection with the corresponding α-acetylglycosyl bromide, respectively. Compounds 17 and 18 were prepared by iodination followed by base-induced elimination, 4′-O-benzylation, or 4′-O-methylation and acid hydrolysis using naringin as starting material which is readily available and cheap. Their cytotoxic potential against five human cancer cell lines (HL-60, SMMC-7721, A-549, MCF-7, and SW480) was evaluated by standard MTT method. The results show that compounds 2, 9, and 19 exhibit moderate cytotoxicity against HL-60, SMMC-7721, A-549, MCF-7, and SW480, while compound 3 exhibits potent cytotoxicity against MCF-7 selectively. Among the synthesized target compounds, 3, 4, 7, 11, 12, 15, and 16 were new compounds, the natural product 8 was the first synthesized and the synthesis of natural products 5, 6, 13, and 14 was efficiently improved by the new synthetic routes.

We have succeeded in the first total synthesis of apigenin 7,4′-di-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (1a), a component of blue pigment, protodelphin, from naringenin (2). Glycosylation of 2 according to Koenigs-Knorr reaction provided a monoglucoside 4a in 80% yield, and this was followed by DDQ oxidation to give apigenin 7-O-glucoside (12a). Further glycosylation of 4′-OH of 12a with 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-α-D- glucopyranosyl fluoride (5a) was achieved using a Lewis acid-and-base promotion system (BF3·Et2O, 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4- methylpyridine, and 1,1,3,3-tetramethylguanidine) in 70% yield, and subsequent deprotection produced 1a. Synthesis of three other chiral isomers of 1a, with replacement of D-glucose at 7 and/or 4′-OH by L-glucose (1b-d), and four chiral isomers of apigenin 7-O-β-glucosides (6a,b) and 4′-O-β- glucosides (7a,b) also proved possible.
Chiral molecular recognition on formation of a metalloanthocyanin: A supramolecular metal complex pigment from blue flowers of salvia patens

Most blue flower color is the result of a metalloanthocyanin, a stoichiometric self-assembled supramolecular pigment consisting of six molecules of an anthocyanin, six molecules of an anthocyanin, six molecules of flavone, and two metal atoms. We have iso
