Investigation of drag plants used in indigeneous medicine in India was started in the early part of the present century. Since 1940s onward new vegetable driags cane into prominence so much so that approximately one third of pharma­ ceuticals are of plant origin. The much greater emphasis on the exr)loitation of plants as source of chemicals can be expected in future, consequently, tnere has been a return to natural Droducts as sources of inspiration for organic chemists. Althought our country abounds in medicinal herbaceous flora, very few indigenous plants have been subjected to phytoc lemic^J. study for the characterization of active principles. This inspired us to investigate some medicinally important plaints for the presence of acti/e compounds of possible therapeutic values. The flavonoids, a comparatively neglected class of natural metabolites, have recently attracted attention due to their physiological importance. The term flavonoid covers a large group of naturally occurring com-oounds in which t\ra benzene rings are linke by a - 2 - propane bridge i.e. having (G/:-G^-G^) carbon skeleton except in isoflavone in which the arrangement is (G/--0-G-G), however, the "6 flavojaoid coranounds are now tiLon to include not only those substances having the true flavonoid structure but also such closely related classes of compounds such as chalcone, isoflavones, aurones, the stilbenes and th*^ cinnamic acids and counarins, which are demonstrably associn-ted with the true flavonoids being formed in plants by a single synthetic Pathway . The potent uses of flavonoids may be listed as contraceptive 2 3 4 drugs , heart stimulants , coronary vasodxalators , antiviral 5 6 effect , analgesic and bronchodilator activity , spasmolytic and 7 8 9 antihistamine activity , oesterogenic activity ' , anthelmintic activity , treatment of allergic diseases , antitumor effect and effective inhibitors of blood cell aggregation 13 . GertaJn flavonoids influence the metabolism of blood vessel walls and cause an increase in capillary resistance. The most important flavonoids that produce a normalization of pathologically reduced capillary resistance are rutin derivatives, Citrus flavonoids, catechins and some flavones and isofalvones, such as taxifolin, diosmetin or sar)horicogide. The chief theraDeutic areas are haemorrhagic diathesis, diabetes, hypertension and arterios- chlerosis. - 3 - The flavonoida are of commercial interest as antioxidants for fats and oils ' . The hiflavonoids which are dimer of monoflavonoids have lately been given more attention because of their physiological properties. - 4 - I, CHEMISTRY OF BIFLAV0N0ID3 (i) NATURAL BIFLAVONOIDS Siflavonoids may be classified into three catagories: (A) Biaryl type (B) G-arcinia and Taiwania "biflavonoids (C) Biaryl ether type.

  • Original Contributions to Flavonoid Biochemistry
    433 REVIEW / SYNTHÈSE A forty-year journey in plant research: original contributions to flavonoid biochemistry Ragai K. Ibrahim Abstract: This review highlights original contributions by the author to the field of flavonoid biochemistry during his research career of more than four decades. These include elucidation of novel aspects of some of the common enzy- matic reactions involved in the later steps of flavonoid biosynthesis, with emphasis on methyltransferases, glucosyltransferases, sulfotransferases, and an oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase, as well as cloning, and inferences about phylogenetic relationships, of the genes encoding some of these enzymes. The three-dimensional structure of a flavonol O-methyltransferase was studied through homology-based modeling, using a caffeic acid O-methyltransferase as a template, to explain their strict substrate preferences. In addition, the biological significance of enzymatic prenylation of isoflavones, as well as their role as phytoanticipins and inducers of nodulation genes, are emphasized. Finally, the potential application of knowledge about the genes encoding these enzyme reactions is discussed in terms of improving plant productivity and survival, modification of flavonoid profiles, and the search for new compounds with pharmaceutical and (or) nutraceutical value. Key words: flavonoid enzymology, metabolite localization, gene cloning, 3-D structure, phylogeny. Résumé : Dans cette revue, l’auteur fait état de ses contributions originales à la recherche sur la biochimie des flavo- noïdes, au cours des 40 années de sa carrière de recherche. Celles-ci incluent la mise à jour de nouveaux aspects de certaines des réactions enzymatiques impliquées dans les dernières étapes de la biosynthèse des flavonoïdes, avec un accent sur les méthyltransférases, glycotransférases, sulfotransférases et une dioxygénase dépendante de l’oxoglutarate, ainsi que sur le clonage, incluant leurs relations phylogénétiques, des gènes codant pour certaines de ces enzymes.

The majority of structures found were flavones and flavonols, sometimes with 6- and/or 8-substitution, and with a varying degree of oxidation and methylation. Flava- nones were observed in exudates of some genera, and, in some cases, also flavonol- and flavone glycosides were detected. This was mostly the case when exudates were poor both in yield and chemical complexity. Structurally diverse profiles are found particularly within Astereae and Heliantheae. The tribes in the subfamily Cichorioideae exhibited less complex flavonoid profiles. Current results are compared to literature data, and botanical information is included on the studied taxa.

    Synthesis of Flavonoid Sulfates. III. Synthesis of 3',4'-ortho Disulfates Using Sulfur Trioxide-trimethylamine Complex, and of 3'-SuIfates Using Aryl Sulfatase* Denis Barron and Ragai K. Ibrahim Plant Biochemistry Laboratory, Department of Biology, Concordia University, 1455 De Maisonneuve Boulevard West, Montreal, Quebec, Canada, H3G 1M8 Z. Naturforsch. 43c, 631-635 (1988); received March 18, 1988 Flavonoid Sulfate Esters, Synthesis, 13C NMR, FAB-MS, UV Spectra A number of flavonoid 3',4'-disulfates were synthesized from the corresponding 4'-sulfate esters, using sulfur trioxide-trimethylamine complex. Desulfation of the sulfate esters using aryl sulfatase demonstrated that the rate of hydrolysis of the 3'-sulfate group was slower than either the 7- or 4' groups, thus allowing the specific synthesis of flavonol 3,3'-disulfates. The effects of ori/io-disulfation on the L1C NMR spectra of flavonoids, and the regative FAB-MS spectra of di- and trisulfated flavonoids are discussed. Introduction level [5]. This low yield was attributed to the low Although the first sulfated flavonoid, isorhamne- reactivity of the 3'-hydroxyl group, as well as to tin 3-sulfate or persicarin was discovered as early as steric hindrance created by the presence of the bulky 1937 [2], this group of organic sulfur compounds was 4'-sulfate group [32].
