- Synthesis of Platanetin - A Naturally Occuring Prenylated Flavone
-
Platanetin (3,5,7,8-tetrahydroxy-6-C-prenylflavone) (I) has been synthesized by the prenylation of 8-hydroxygalangin. 8-Hydroxygalangin has been synthesized by a new route.

- O-methylation of flavonoids by cell-free extracts of calamondin orange
-
Cell-free extracts of calamondin orange (Citrus mitis) catalysed the O-methylation of almost all hydroxyls of a number of flavonoids, indicating the existence in citrus tissues of ortho, meta, para and 3-O-methyltransferases. The latter, hitherto unreported enzyme, catalysed the formation of 3-O-methyl ethers of galangin and quercetin. The stepwise O-methylation of a number of compounds, especially quercetin and quercetagetin, tends to suggest a coordinated sequence of O-methylations on the surface of a multienzyme complex. The methyl acceptor abilities of the flavonoid substrates used are discussed in relation to their hydroxyl substitution patterns and their negative electron density distribution.
