Flavonoids from Twigs of Millettia leptobotrya Dunn

A new furanoisoflavone, 2'-methoxy-4',5'-methylenedioxy-[2'',3'':7,8] furanoisoflavone, leptobotryanone (1), and a new natural O-prenylated isoflavone, 4'-γ,γ-dimethylallyloxy-5,7-dihydroxyisoflavone (2), were isolated from the twigs of Millettia leptobotrya, together with twelve known flavonoids, 4'-γ,γdimethylallyloxy-5-hydroxy-7-methoxyisoflavone (3), 2',6,7-trimethoxy-4',5'-methylenedioxyis...
