C-glycosylflavonoids. The chemistry of aspalathin.
1. The isolation of aspalathin, the principal phenolic constituent in the leaves of Aspalathus linearis, is described and its properties are discussed. 2. The compound has been identified as 3'-C-beta-d-glucopyranosyl-2',3,4,4',6'-pentahydroxydihydrochalcone by the preparation and analysis of various derivatives, by photochemical oxidation to 2,3-dihydroiso-orientin and by nuclear-magnetic-resonance studies.
