FLAVONOIDS OF ARTEMISIA BALDSCHUANICA
Abstract
One of the priority directions in the field of phytochemistry is the chemical study of plants, producing two major classes of secondary metabolites – terpenoids and phenolic compounds.
Superpolimorphic pluregional genus Artemisia L. is the largest native tribe Anthemideae (522 species) and one of the largest in the family Asteraceae. Most species of genus are perennials or shrubs that only about 10 species – annuals or biennials. Perennial and subshrub species of wormwood dominate in the plant formation of arid and semi-arid regions of Asia.
Artemisia baldshuanica Krasch. et Zarp. belongs to a monophyletic subgenus Seriphidium, there are about 100 species distributed in Eurasia and North Africa. The leaf juice of this species of wormwood has anthelmintic properties.
In order to search for natural bioactive compounds we investigated flavonoids of the alcoholic extract of the aerial part of Artemisia baldshuanica, collected in the phase of the growing season. For the first time from this plant isolated 6 flavonoids: 5-hydroxy-7,4¢-dimethoxyflavon, 5-hydroxy-7,3¢,4¢-trimethoxyflavon, circilineol, jaceosidin, 5,7,3¢-trihydroxy-6,4¢,5¢-trimethoxyflavon and hispidulin.Downloads
