description

Summary 15 species of pleurocarpous mosses have been investigated as to their content of flavonoids. Flavonoid tests on 14 species have given negative results. Only one species, Hylocomium splendens , contains one flavonoid. It was purified by means of paper chromatography and is by chromatography and absorption spectrum identical with rhoifolin (apigenin-7-neohesperidoside). Partial acid hydrolysis yields apigenin-7-monoglucoside and rhamnose, quantitative hydrolysis apigenin, rhamnose and glucose. They were identified by comparison with authentic samples.
