Flavonoid constituents from Glycyrrhiza glabra hairy root cultures.
An unusual biflavonoid named licoagrodin was isolated from the hairy root cultures of Glycyrrhiza glabra (Leguminosae) along with three prenylated retrochalcones, licoagrochalcones B, C, D, a prenylated aurone, licoagroaurone and four known prenylated flavonoids, licochalcone C, kanzonol Y, glyinflanin B and glycyrdione A. From the glycosidic fraction, a isoflavone glycoside, licoagroside A, and a maltol glycoside, licoagroside B were isolated together with four known isoflavone glycosides, two flavone C-glycosides, and three other glycosides. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic evidence.
