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.

Flavanoids from Caesalpinia pulcherrima.

Two new flavanoids, 5,7-dimethoxy-3',4'-methylenedioxyflavanone and isobonducellin along with 2'-hydroxy-2,3,4',6'-tetramethoxychalcone, 5,7-dimethoxyflavone and bonducellin were isolated from the aerial parts of Caesalpinia pulcherrima. The structures of the compounds were settled mainly by interpretation of their 1D and 2D NMR spectra. Isobonducellin was found to be a homoisoflavanoid containing a cis (Z)-double bond. Antimicrobial activity of the new compounds was evaluated.

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.
