title: Polyoxygenated flavones from the leaves of comptonella microcarpa
abstract: The leaves of Comptonella microcarpa have yielded one alkaloid, dictamnine, and four known polyoxygenated flavonoids, meliternatin, 3,5,8-trimethoxy-6,7-3',4'-dimethylenedioxyflavone, 7-(3-methylbut-2-enyloxy)-3,5,8-trimethoxy-3', 4'-methylenedioxyflavone (3), 7-hydroxy-3,5,8-trimethoxy-3', 4'methylenedioxyflavone. In addition, two new flavonoids were found whose structures were established on the basis of their spectral data as 7-hydroxy-3,5,6,8-tetramethoxy-3',4'-methylenedioxyflavone (1) and 7-(3-methylbut-2-enyloxy)-3,5,6,8-tetramethoxy-3', 4'-methylenedioxyflavone (2).
