چکیده
THE TITLE COMPOUND (SYSTEMATIC NAME 5,6-dihy-droxy-7,8-dimeth-oxy-2-phenyl-chromen-4-one), C17H14O6, is a flavone that was isolated from the petroleum ether-soluble fraction of the rare traditional Chinese medicinal herb Saussurea involucrata. The flavone mol-ecule is almost planar, with a dihedral angle between the planes of the benzo-pyran-4-one group and the attached phenyl group of 1.89 (6)°. The 5-hy-droxy group forms a strong intra-molecular hydrogen bond with the carbonyl group, resulting in a six-membered hydrogen-bonded ring. The 6-hy-droxy group also forms an intra-molecular O-H⋯O contact. In the crystal, the molecules are linked by O-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π-π inter-actions [3.37 (2)-3.39 (2) Å], which build up a three-dimensional network.

The effects of two isomeric benzoflavones on aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase and the toxicity and carcinogenicity of polycyclic hydrocarbons.
At concentrations 10 to 20 times greater than that of the hydrocarbons, 7,8-benzoflavone (7,8-BF) inhibited almost completely the metabolism of benzo(a)pyrene and 7,12dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA) to water-soluble deriv atives in hamster embryo cell cultures. The isomer 5,6-benzofiavone (5,6-BF) inhibited metabolism to a much lesser extent. 5,6-BF induced some aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (A...

The synthesis of 5,6- and 7,8-diaminoquinoline derivatives starting from angularly annelated selenadiazoloquinolones is presented. Simple chlorination of the pyridone ring followed by reductive deselenation of the 1,2,5-selenadiazole ring afforded novel 4-chloro-o-diaminoquinolines. Dechlorination of 4-chloro-7,8-diaminoquinoline gave 7,8-diaminoquinoline hydrochloride which was successfully em...

The title compound, C(13)H(10)N(4)O(2)S, was prepared through a cyclization reaction of 1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione and thio-urea. The dihedral angle between the pyridine rings is 8.22 (2)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are connected by N-H⋯O, O-H⋯N, N-H⋯S and O-H⋯S hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network.

The crystal and molecular structures of two isomeric inhibitors of carcinogenesis by certain polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are described. The two compounds are 7,8-benzoflavone and 5,6-benzoflavone, which are shown by X-ray crystallographic studies to differ appreciably in their three-dimensional structures. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are metabolically activated by an enzyme system tha...
