Abstract

From the bud exudates of Gardenia cramerii and G. fosbergii, two species endemic to Sri Lanka, a new flavonoid with an unusual B-ring oxidation pattern, 5,5′-dihydroxy-6,7,2′,3′-tetramethoxyflavone, was characterized. Two other rare flavonoids, 5,3′,5′-trihydroxy-3,6,7,4′-tetramethoxyflavone and 5-hydroxy-6,7,3′,4′,5′-pentamethoxyflavone were also isolated from both Gardenia species.
