Synthesis of some commonly occurring 2-phenyl-4H-1-benzopyran-4-ones: Revised structures for three natural products

5-Hydroxy-6,7-dimethoxyflavone, 5-hydroxy-7,8-dimethoxyflavone, 5-hydroxy-3,7-dimethoxyflavone, 3-hydroxy-5,7-dimethoxyflavone, 5-hydroxy-7,8-dimethoxyisoflavone and 5,7-dihydroxy-3-methoxyflavone and their derivatives have been synthesised to confirm the

O-methylation of flavonoids by cell-free extracts of calamondin orange

Cell-free extracts of calamondin orange (Citrus mitis) catalysed the O-methylation of almost all hydroxyls of a number of flavonoids, indicating the existence in citrus tissues of ortho, meta, para and 3-O-methyltransferases. The latter, hitherto unreported enzyme, catalysed the formation of 3-O-methyl ethers of galangin and quercetin. The stepwise O-methylation of a number of compounds, especially quercetin and quercetagetin, tends to suggest a coordinated sequence of O-methylations on the surface of a multienzyme complex. The methyl acceptor abilities of the flavonoid substrates used are discussed in relation to their hydroxyl substitution patterns and their negative electron density distribution.

Synthesis of Platanetin - A Naturally Occuring Prenylated Flavone

Platanetin (3,5,7,8-tetrahydroxy-6-C-prenylflavone) (I) has been synthesized by the prenylation of 8-hydroxygalangin. 8-Hydroxygalangin has been synthesized by a new route.
