Flavonoids from Haplophyllum pedicellatum, H. robustum AND H. glabrinum

Haplophyllum pedicellatum, H. robustum and H. glabrinum all yielded the known compound gossypetin 8,3′-dimethyl ether 3-rutinoside.

Synthesis of N-Acetylglucosamine Aryl β-Glycosides Catalyzed by Crown Compounds

Glycosylation of various phenols with -D-glucosaminyl chloride peracetate in a solid phase–liquid system catalyzed by crown compounds was studied. The highest yields of aryl -glycosides were observed at room temperature in acetonitrile using anhydrous potassium carbonate as a base. The optimum phenol–glycosyl donor–base–crown ether ratio was 1 : 1 : 1 : 0.2.
