In the title compound, C17H14O6, the benzopyran ring system is essentially planar and forms a dihedral angle of 6.84 (4)° with the other benzene ring. In the centrosymmetrically related molecules are linked into dimers by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The crystal packing is controlled by C—H⋯π and π–π stacking interactions involving the benzopyran and benzene rings, with centroid–centroid distances between 3.645 (2) and 3.986 (2) Å.

30 kg of dried whole plant Teucrium pilosum was powdered and extracted with ethanol (120 L) three times at room temperature and the residue was separated after removing the solvent under vacuum. The residue was suspended in water and extracted with ethyl acetate and n-butanol respectively. The ethyl acetate fraction (4.5 kg) was subjected repeatedly to
on silica gel using petroleum with a gradient of ethyl acetate (0–100% EtOAc) to yield the title compound (916.3 mg). Single crystals suitable for X-ray were obtained from an ether-CHCl3 mixture (1:10 v/v) by slow evaporation of the solvent at room temperature.All H atoms were placed in calculated positions with C—H = 0.93–0.96 Å, O—H = 0.82 Å, and refined using the riding model approximation, with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C, O) or 1.5 Ueq(C) for methyl H atoms.
Flavone compounds exhibit different physiological functions and activities (Wu et al., 2007), such as antibacterial and antioxidative activities, and are useful in diminshing inflammation, relieving cough and dispelling phlegm. In these compounds, different structures having different conformations exhibit a wide range macroscopic physiological activities (Guo et al., 2006; Wang et al., 2007). The title compound, 6,4'-dimethoxy-5,7-dihydroxyflavone, which is a natural product extracted from Teucrium pilosum found in the Guizhou Province of China, effects on phenol red excretion volume of mouse trachea and on the ammonia-induced cough in mice.
In the title compound (Fig. 1), the benzopyran ring is essentially planar (maximum displacement 0.0258 (14) Å for atom C10) and forms a dihedral angle of 6.84 (4)° with the benzene ring C2—C7. The π···π stacking interactions occur between adjacent rings, with centroid-centroid separations of 3.645 (2), 3.656 (2) and 3.986 (2) Å for Cg1···Cg2i, Cg1···Cg2ii and Cg2···Cg3i respectively (Cg1, Cg2 and Cg3 are the centroids of the O6/C8—C12, C2—C7 and C11—C16 rings; symmetry codes: (i) -x, 1 - y, 1 - z; (ii) -x, 2 - y, 1 - z). The structure is further stabilized by a C—H···π interaction (C1—H1B···Cg(3)ii = 150.3°; H1B···Cg(3)ii = 2.93 Å; C1···Cg(3)ii = 3.799 (2) Å).
is stabilized by two O—H···O intramolecular hydrogen bonds (Table 1). Moreover, centrosymmetrically related molecules are linked into dimers by O—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1). In theFor related literature, see: Guo et al. (2006); Wang & Cheng (2007); Wu et al. (2007).

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Flavone compounds exhibit different physiological functions and activities (Wu et al., 2007), such as antibacterial and antioxidative activities, and are useful in diminshing inflammation, relieving cough and dispelling phlegm. In these compounds, different structures having different conformations exhibit a wide range macroscopic physiological activities (Guo et al., 2006; Wang et al., 2007). The title compound, 6,4'-dimethoxy-5,7-dihydroxyflavone, which is a natural product extracted from Teucrium pilosum found in the Guizhou Province of China, effects on phenol red excretion volume of mouse trachea and on the ammonia-induced cough in mice.
In the title compound (Fig. 1), the benzopyran ring is essentially planar (maximum displacement 0.0258 (14) Å for atom C10) and forms a dihedral angle of 6.84 (4)° with the benzene ring C2—C7. The molecular conformation is stabilized by two O—H···O intramolecular hydrogen bonds (Table 1). Moreover, centrosymmetrically related molecules are linked into dimers by O—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1). In the crystal structure, π···π stacking interactions occur between adjacent rings, with centroid-centroid separations of 3.645 (2), 3.656 (2) and 3.986 (2) Å for Cg1···Cg2i, Cg1···Cg2ii and Cg2···Cg3i respectively (Cg1, Cg2 and Cg3 are the centroids of the O6/C8—C12, C2—C7 and C11—C16 rings; symmetry codes: (i) -x, 1 - y, 1 - z; (ii) -x, 2 - y, 1 - z). The structure is further stabilized by a C—H···π interaction (C1—H1B···Cg(3)ii = 150.3°; H1B···Cg(3)ii = 2.93 Å; C1···Cg(3)ii = 3.799 (2) Å).
