Summary
A new glucoside has been isolated from the flowers ofTagetes patula. It yields by direct hydrolysis patuletin and glucose and by hydrolysis after complete methylation 3: 5: 6: 3′: 4′-O-pentamethyl quercetagetin, characterised also as its ethyl ether. The glycoside is, thus, patuletin 7-mono-glucoside and is, therefore, named patulitrin.
