Flavonoid Constituents of Rhamnus lycioides L.
1986
Abstract From the aerial part of Rhamnus lycioides, which is used in folk medicine in eastern Spain as an antihypertensive drug, seven free flavonoid aglycones were isolated. They were structurally elucidated as rhamnazin. rhamnocitrin, isorhamnetin, kaempferol, quercetin. quercetin-3-methylether and taxifolin. by applying the principal spectroscopic methods and TLC with authentic markers.
Effect of Flavonol Derivatives on the Carrageenin-Induced Paw Edema in the Rat and Inhibition of Cyclooxygenase-1 and 5-Lipoxygenase in Vitro
2000
Alkoxyflavonols were synthesized by the Algar-Flynn-Oyamada (AFO) cyclization of chalcones. Hydroxyflavonols were prepared by dealkylation of methoxyflavonols by refluxing in hydroiodic acid. The alkoxyflavonols 3-hydroxy-2-(2,3,4-trimethoxyphenyl)-4H-chromen-4-one (6), 2-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-3-hydroxy-4H-chromen-4-one (7), 2-(4-butoxyphenyl)-3-hydroxy-4H-chromen-4-one (10), and 2-(3-n-butoxyphenyl)-3-hydroxy-4H-chromen-4-one (11) as well as the trihydroxy derivative 3-hydroxy-2-(3,4,5-trihydroxyphenyl)-4H-chromen-4-one (18) displayed high anti-inflammatory activity in carrageenin-induced rat paw edema. Additionally, the inhibition of enzymes of the arachidonic acid cascade by the derivatives w…
A chemotaxonomic survey of Sonchus subgenus Sonchus
1993
Abstract Five species of Sonchus subgenus Sonchus were surveyed for their phenolic constituents. Seven flavonoids were identified: luteolin, luteolin-7-glucoside, apigenin, apigenin-3-glucoside, quercetin, quercetin-3-glucoside and quercetin-3-galactoside; three were phenolic acids; caffeic, chlorogenic and isochlorogenic; and two were coumarins: aesculetin and cichoriin. Their systematic significance for this genus is discussed.
Phenolic Compounds from Lactuca viminea L.
1992
Abstract The aerial part of Lactuca viminea L. was examined for the presence of phenolic compounds. Six different flavonoids were isolated and identified by UV spectra, TLC, HPLCDAD , 1H NMR and 13C NMR. They were identified as apigenin, luteolin, quercetin, luteolin-7-O-glucoside, quercetin-3-O-glucoside and luteolin-7-O-glucuronide-6″methyl ester. Three phenolic acids were also detected: caffeic, ferulic and chlorogenic acid.

Characterization of intestinal absorption of C -glycoside flavonoid vicenin-2 from Lychnophora ericoides leafs in rats by nonlinear mixed effects mod…
2015
Vicenin-2 (apigenin-6,8-di-C-β-d-glucopyranoside) is present in hydroalcoholic extracts of the Brazilian species Lychnophora ericoides Mart., Asteraceae, leaves, and the biological effects of this compound have been demonstrated including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-tumor effects in rat models. Given the potential of this compound as a pharmacological agent, the aims of this investigation were to evaluate the extent of intestinal absorption of vicenin-2, and to determine the intestinal permeation profile using an in situ single-pass intestinal perfusion technique. A validated HPLC–UV method was applied to measure the amount of unabsorbed vicenin-2 in the gut after an oral admini…
In Vitro Propagation of Sideritis angustifolia Lag.
1987
Summary Hypocotyl, root and cotyledon explants from 30 day old seedlings of Sideritis angustifolia Lag. were cultured on Murashige and Skoog nutrient medium. Organogenesis of roots and shoots was induced with treatments containing BA or KIN in combination with NAA, IAA or 2,4-D, however, those combinations including NAA and BA were optimal. Most regenerated shoots developed roots when transferred to medium without growth regulators. Rooted plantlets were successfully transplanted into soil.
Two New Flavonoids fromBonannia graeca: a DFT-NMR Combined Approach in Solving Structures
2007
Two new cyclized C-geranylated flavonoids, the dihydroflavonol bonanniol C (4a) and the flavanone bonannione B (6a), were isolated as minor compounds from the aerial parts of Bonannia graeca (Umbelliferae). Their structures were elucidated by a combined approach of extensive spectroscopic means and quantum mechanical methods. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2007)
Approaches to the identification and assay of flavonoids in bee bread extracts by spectrophotometric method
2017
Flavonoids are regarded as key compounds in bee bread. In this paper, quantitative determination of sum of flavonoids and dominating group of flavonoids were carried out by colorimetric aluminum chloride method. The principle of aluminum chloride colorimetric method is that aluminum chloride forms complexes with flavones and flavanols wherein it reacts with the C-4 keto group and hydroxyl groups of the ring C, and/or ring A and/or ring B. In this work 3 samples of bee bread and 5 extracts were investigated. The total contents of flavonoids in the tested extracts ranged from 10 to 166 mg/L. Our study confirmed that complex of quercetin dihydrate with aluminum chloride had the maximum absorpt…
