3',4'-Di-O-benzyl-3-O-methylquercetin (2), the precursor in the synthesis of an important antivirally active flavone 3-O-methylquercetin (1), was regioselectively alkylated at the 7-OH position by a series of 1,ω- dihaloalkanes and ω-bromoalkanols. Dimerization of the flavone had to be avoided by applying strict reaction conditions. Subsequent debenzylation was carried out by catalytic transfer hydrogenolysis, affording quantitatively the 7-O-(ω-haloalkyl)-3-O-methylquercetin (11-14) and 7-O-(ω- hydroxyalkyl)-3-O-methylquercetin derivatives (15, 16). All compounds were tested for their antiviral activity against poliomyelitis- and HIV-viruses.
