FLAVONE GLYCOSIDES
These are complex organic compounds containing
phenyl-benzopyrone ring system. Flavones are present in plants in a free state
or in glycosidal state (O-glycoside or C-glycoside) with its different
derivatives like flavane, flavonol, flavonone, isoflavone and chalcones, for
example, Rutin, quercitrin, hyperoside, diosmin (buchu leaf), hesperidin (lemon
and orange peel) and vitexin (Carategus).
