The flavone nucleus is part of a large number of natural products and medicinal compounds. In this presentation the novel regioselective hydroxylation of hydroxyarenes with DMD is described. The results showed further that flavonoids with 5-hydroxy group were selectively oxyfunctionalized at the para-position C8 carbon atom by DMD. Finally, according to this methodology, the naturally occurring isosinensetin, tangeretin, sinensetin, nobiletin, natsudaidain, gardenin B, 3,3′,4′,5,6,7,8- heptamethoxyflavone, quercetin and its derivatives were synthesized.

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,
