The title compound, C17H16O6, was isolated from the Chinese Tibetan medicinal plant Artemisia sphaerocephala Kraschen. The molecular conformation is consolidated by two intramolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. A further intermolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bond leads to chains along [010] in the crystal structure.

The air-dried whole plant (5.1 kg) was ground into powder and extracted three times with 95% EtOH for 3 h each time. The concentrated extract was dispersed in water and partitioned successively with petroleum ether, CHCl3, EtOAC and n-BuOH. The chloroform fraction (115 g) was subjected to silics gel with petroleum ether-acetone (9:1) to yield two fractions (Frs. 1–2). Fraction 2 (50 g) was subjected to silics gel with petroleum ether-EtOAC (50:1, 45:1, 40:1, 30:1) to yield six fractions. After a week, the crude title compound (20 mg) was crystallized from the fourth fraction. After recrystallization from petroleum ether-EtOAC, colourless blocks of (I) arose, with a melting point of 475 K. The δ: 12.15 (1H, s), 6.08 (1H, d, J=2.2 Hz), 6.05 (1H, d, J=2.2 Hz), 5.47 (1H, dd, J=12.6 Hz, 3.0 Hz), 3.20 (1H, dd, J=15.5 Hz, 12.6 Hz), 2.82 (1H, dd, J=15.5 Hz, 3.0 Hz); 13 C NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ: 197.0 (C-4), 168.0 (C-7), 163.8 (C-5), 163.1 (C-9), 147.8 (C-4'), 146.7 (C-3'), 131.8 (C-1'), 117.9 (C-6'), 113.5 (C-5'), 111.3 (C-2'), 102.9 (C-10), 94.6 (C-6), 93.7 (C-8), 79.0 (C-2), 42.6 (C-3), 55.4 (4'-OCH3), 55.3 (7-OCH3).
C17H16O6, was established by ESIMS m/z:316(M+). Spectroscopic analysis, 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6)Anomalous dispersion was negligible and Friedel pairs were merged before refinement.
The H atoms were geometrically placed (C-H = 0.93–0.98Å, O—H = 0.82 Å), and refined as riding with Uiso(H)=1.2Ueq(C) or Uiso(H)=1.5Ueq(O or methyl C).

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. |

As part of the ongoing investigations of the Chinese Tibetan medicinal plant Artemisia sphaerocephala Kraschen (Zhao et al., 2007), we now report the isolation and structure of the flavone-related title compound, (I).
Compound (I) consists of three-ring system, including a phenyl ring and a benzopyrone fused ring (Fig.1). The C–O bond distances range from 1.239 (2) to 1.453 (2) Å, in which C4–O2 [1.239 (2) Å] is typical for a C=O double-bond. The S(6) ring of O1/C2/C3/C4/C9/C10 in (I) is nonplanar, charactrtized by a O1–C2–C3–C4 torsion angle of 52.9 (2) °. Atom C2 is chiral, but the absolute structure of (I) could not be established from the present experiment. The dihedral angle between the aromatic ring planes is 77.26 (9) °.
Two intramolecular O-H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) help to establish the molecular conformation, both constructing S(6) rings. In addition, an intermolecular O-H···O link leads to [010] chains in the crystal (Fig. 2).
