Chev (Verbenaceae), a medicinal plant used traditionally in the Cameroonian savannah’s region to protect foodstuffs and to cure degenerative diseases. Results indicated that theses extracts contain terpenoids, phenolic and flavonoid compounds. Except the n-hexane extract, all of the obtained extracts exhibit antioxidant activities with the ethanol extract being the most effective with an inhibition percentage of 85.668% ± 1.233% and an inhibition concentration (IC<sub>50</sub>) of 58 μg/ml (R<sup>2</sup> = 0.987, P < 0.01) at a concentration of 100 mg/ml. Chromatographic separation on silica gel of the ethanol extract led to the isolation of a pure organic compound which was characterized as 7-hydroxy-5,6,4'-trimethox- yflavone by extensive 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy, a flavonoid exhibiting antioxidative activity with an inhibitory percentage of 25.506% ± 0.205% and inhibition concentration (IC<sub>50</sub>) of 221 μg/ml (R<sup>2</sup> = 0.966, P < 0.01). This is the first time that 7-hydroxy-5,6,4'-trimethoxyflavone is being isolated from L. rugosa and its antioxidant activity evaluated.展开更多
A new flavone glycoside, 5,8-dihydroxy-4',6,7-trimethoxyflavone 8-O-(-D-glucopyranoside 1, together with three known flavonoids, pedalitin 2, cirsimartin 3 and genkwanin 4, were isolated from the aerial parts of I...A new flavone glycoside, 5,8-dihydroxy-4',6,7-trimethoxyflavone 8-O-(-D-glucopyranoside 1, together with three known flavonoids, pedalitin 2, cirsimartin 3 and genkwanin 4, were isolated from the aerial parts of Isodon enanderianus. Their structures were determined on the basis of spectral data.展开更多
