Flavonoids and andrographolides from Andrographis paniculata.

Two flavonoids, identified as 5,7,2',3'-tetramethoxyflavanone and 5-hydroxy-7,2',3'-trimethoxyflavone, as well as several other flavonoids, andrographolide diterpenoids, and polyphenols, were obtained from the phytochemical investigation of the whole plant of Andrographis paniculata, a well known medicinal plant. The structures of these compounds were established with the aid of spectroscopic methods, including analysis by 2D NMR spectroscopy.

New 2'-oxygenated flavonoids from Andrographis affinis.

Three new 2'-oxygenated flavonoids, (2S)-5,7,2',3',4'-pentamethoxyflavanone (1), 5-hydroxy-7,8,2',5'-tetramethoxyflavone (2), and echioidinin 2'-O-beta-d-(6' '-O-acetyl) glucopyranoside (3), together with four known flavonoids, 7-O-methyldihydrowogonin, 7-O-methylwogonin, skullcapflavone I 2'-methyl ether, and skullcapflavone I, and two diterpenoids, andrograpanin and 14-deoxy-11,12-didehydroandrographolide, were isolated from the whole plant of Andrographis affinis. The structures were elucidated by spectral and chemical studies.

Flavones from Andrographis viscosula.

Two new 2'-oxygenated flavones, 5,7,2'-trimethoxyflavone (1). and 5,7,2',4',6'-pentamethoxyflavone (2). were isolated from the whole plant of Andrographis viscosula along with three known flavones, echioidinin (3). 5,2',6'-trihydroxy-7-methoxyflavone (4). and echioidin (5). The structures of these compounds were elucidated on the basis of 1D and 2D NMR spectral studies.
