The invention relates to a semi-synthetic flavonoid compound and an anti-inflammatory application thereof. The invention belongs to the technical field of medicines, particularly relates to synthesis of derivatives of natural products and an application of the derivatives in the anti-inflammatory aspect, and more particularly relates to a synthesis method of flavonoid compounds and an application of the flavonoid compounds in the anti-inflammatory aspect. According to the method, hesperetin is taken as a raw material, flavonol aglycone is synthesized, and finally flavonoid glycoside is synthesized through debenzylation and acetyl reaction. According to the invention, 32 flavonoid compounds, including 14 flavonoid aglycones and 18 flavonoid glycosides, including 15 known compounds and 17 unreported compounds, are synthesized in total. The part of the compounds show good in-vitro anti-inflammatory activity and can become anti-inflammatory drugs or lead compounds.

Botanical supplements derived from grapes are functional in animal model systems for the amelioration of neurological conditions, including cognitive impairment. Rats fed with grape extracts accumulate 3′-O-methyl-quercetin-3-O-β-d-glucuronide (3) in their brains, suggesting 3 as a potential therapeutic agent. To develop methods for the synthesis of 3 and the related 4′-O-methyl-quercetin-7-O-β-d-glucuronide (4), 3-O-methyl-quercetin-3′-O-β-d-glucuronide (5), and 4′-O-methyl-quercetin-3′-O-β-d-glucuronide (6), which are not found in the brain, we have evaluated both enzymatic semisynthesis and full chemical synthetic approaches. Biocatalysis by mammalian UDP-glucuronosyltransferases generated multiple glucuronidated products from 4′-O-methylquercetin, and is not cost-effective. Chemical synthetic methods, on the other hand, provided good results; 3, 5, and 6 were obtained in six steps at 12, 18, and 30% overall yield, respectively, while 4 was synthesized in five steps at 34% overall yield. A mechanistic study on the unexpected regioselectivity observed in the quercetin glucuronide synthetic steps is also presented.

Quercetin derivatives are widespread in the plant kingdom and exhibit various biological actions. The aim of this study was to investigate the structure-activity relationships of quercetin derivatives, with a focus on the influence of functional groups and sugar composition on their antioxidant capacity. A series of quercetin derivatives were therefore prepared and assessed for their DPPH radical scavenging properties. Isoquercetin O-gallates were more potent radical scavengers than quercetin. The systematic analysis highlights the importance of the distribution of hydroxy substituents in isoquercetin O-gallates to their potency.
