A series of 16 flavonoids were isolated and prepared from bud exudate of Gardenia urvillei and Gardenia oudiepe, endemic to New Caledonia. Most of them are rare polymethoxylated flavones. Some of these compounds showed noticeable activity against Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis, Plasmodium falciparum and Trypanosoma brucei gambiense, in addition to tubulin polymerization inhibition at low micromolar concentration. We also provide a full set of NMR data as some of the flavones were incompletely described.

4'-Hydroxy-3-methoxyflavones are natural compounds with known antiviral activities against picornaviruses such as poliomyelitis and rhinoviruses. In order to establish a structure-activity relationship a series of analogues were synthesized, and their antiviral activities and cytotoxicities were compared with those of flavones from natural origin. The 4'-hydroxyl and 3-methoxyl groups, a substitution in the 5 position and a polysubstituted A ring appeared to be essential requirements for a high activity. The most interesting compound was 4',7-dihydroxy-3-methoxy-5,6-dimethylflavone possessing in vitro TI99 values of > 1000 and > 200 against poliovirus type 1 and rhinovirus type 15, respectively. This compound was also active against other rhinovirus serotypes (2, 9, 14, 29, 39, 41, 59, 63, 70, 85, and 89) tested, having MIC50 values ranging from 0.016 to 0.5 μg/mL. Finally in contrast to quercetin it showed to be not mutagenic in concentrations up to 2.5 mg in the Ames test.
