Abstract: | 6 -C3-C6 skeleton, have been found in plants, and are divided into several classes, i.e., anthocyanins, flavones, flavonols, flavanones,
dihydroflavonols, chalcones, aurones, flavan and proanthocyanidins, isoflavonoids, biflavonoids, etc. In this review, the
chemical structures of the reported flavonoid classes are introduced and their distribution in nature are described. Additionally,
some recent chemotaxonomical examples using the flavonoids are also given.
