FLAVONOL GLYCOSIDES IN LEAVES OF SPINACIA OLERACEA

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/S0031-9422(00)94534-5

Besides spinatoside (3,6-dimethoxy-5,7,3',4'-tetrahydroxyflavone 4'-O-β-D-glucopyranuronide), three new flavonol glycosides have now been isolated from the polar fractions of the methanolic extract of Spinacia oleracea.They have been identified as patuletin 3-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1->6)-<β-D-apiofuranosyl-(1->2)>-β-D-glucopyranoside, patuletin 3-O-β-gentiobioside and spinacetin 3-O-β-gentiobioside, respectively.
