Summary
6∶7∶8-Trihydroxy and 6∶7∶8∶4′-tetrahydroxyflavones and their derivatives (methyl ethers and acetates) have been prepared starting with 2-hydroxy-3∶4∶5-trimethoxyacetophenone and adopting the Baker-Venkataraman procedure. Their properties and reactions have been studied and compared with those of the isomeric compounds, baicalein and scutellarein.
