The methoxymethyl ethers of 6-hydroxy-5,7,8-trimethoxyflavones, which were derived from 2',5'dihydroxy-3',4',6'-trimethoxyacetophenone, were oxidized with dimethyldioxirane to give the corresponding 3-hydroxyflavones. Selective O-alkylation and dealkylation of the 3-hydroxyflavones were examined and a convenient method for synthesizing the following ten kinds of 3,5,6,7,8- pentaoxygenated flavones was established: 3-hydroxy-5,6,7,8- tetramethoxyflavones, 3,5-dihydroxy-6,7,8-trimethoxyflavones, 3,6-dihydroxy- 5,7,8-trimethoxyflavones, 3,5,6-trihydroxy-7,8-dimethoxyflavones, 3,5,6,7- tetrahydroxy-8-methoxyflavones, and their 3-methyl ethers. Furthermore, 3,5,8-trihydroxy-4',6,7-trimethoxyflavone, 3,8-dihydroxy-4',5,6,7- tetramethoxyflavone, and 5,8-dihydroxy-3,6,7-trimethoxyflavones were similarly synthesized and their spectral properties were examined. Additionally, the proposed structures of three natural flavones were revised.

Six 5,8-dihydroxy-6,7-dimethoxyflavones and three 8-hydroxy-5,6,7-trimethoxyflavones were synthesized from 2',5'-dihydroxy-3',4',6'-trimethoxyacetophenone by adapting the selective O-alkylation and dealkylation, and the differentiation between the flavones and their isomeric 6-hydroxyflavones was clarified by 1H NMR and UV spectra.Four natural flavones proposed as 5,8-dihydroxy-6,7-dimethoxyflavones, must have other structures and three are shown to be isomeric 5,7-dihydroxy-6,8-dimethoxyflavones.A flavone, isolated from Helichrysum, is revised to the isomeric 7-hydroxy-5,6,7-trimethoxyflavone,
