– A new approach to oroxylin A, a monomethylated trihydroxyflavone, is described. The starting material was baicalin, a representative naturally abundant flavonoid glucuronide. First, conditions for the cleavage of the glycosidic bond were established, using a mixture of water and conc. sulfuric acid (5:2) at 121 °C for 40 min. The hydrolysis was performed in a high-pressure steam sterilizer so that the temperature and reaction time were precisely controlled. Subsequent acetylation of the crude material furnished baicalein 6,7-diacetate on a preparative scale and in a reproducible manner. Next, the C-7 position was protected site-selectively with a methoxymethyl (MOM) group, taking advantage of an unexpected sequential migration of the two acetyl groups among the C-5, C-6, and C-7 positions under basic conditions. The removal of the two remaining acetyl groups followed by site-selective methylation of the C-6 position furnished 5-hydroxy-6-methoxy-7-methoxymethoxyflavone (oroxylin A C-7 MOM ether). Finally, by the deprotection of the MOM ether, oroxylin A was obtained in 6 total steps and 62% overall yield from baicalin.

The present invention is directed to analogs of baicalein according to formula (I): where R5 is H, (CI-C12)alkyl, (C2-C13)acyl, or an optionally substituted phenyl or benzyl group, an acyl group, a C1-C20 alkyl or ether group, a phosphate, diphosphate, triphosphate or phosphodiester group; R6 and R7 are each independently H, (C1-C12)alkyl, (C2-C13)acyl, or an optionally substituted phenyl or benzyl or together form a -OCR1R20- group wherein each of R1 and R2 is independently H, a C1-C3 alkyl group or an optionally substituted phenyl or benzyl group; and R8 is H, OH, an O-acyl group, a C1,-C4 alkyl or alkoxy group, F, Cl, Br or I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which exhibit anti-P-glycoprotein activity and methods of enhancing the bioavailability of active compounds, especially orally administered compounds, by inhibition of P-glycoprotein 170 (P-gp 170) and/or CYP450 enzyme, especially CYP450 3A4 enzyme. Pharmaceutical compositions based upon these novel derivatives according to the present invention are also described herein.
