The title compound (systematic name: 5,6-dihydroxy-7,8-dimethoxy-2-phenylchromen-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 molecule is almost planar, with a dihedral angle between the planes of the benzopyran-4-one group and the attached phenyl group of 1.89 (6)°. The 5-hydroxy group forms a strong intramolecular hydrogen bond with the carbonyl group, resulting in a six-membered hydrogen-bonded ring. The 6-hydroxy group also forms an intramolecular O—H⋯O contact. In the crystal, the molecules are linked by O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π–π interactions [3.37 (2)–3.39 (2) Å], which build up a three–dimensional network.

The air–dried whole plants (10 kg) of S. involucrate were milled and extracted with 70% ethanol (150 L×3) for 2 h each time at 351 K. The resulting extract was concentrated to give ethanol extract (2.4 kg). The ethanol extract was suspended in water and extracted successively with equal volumes petroleum ether, EtOAc and n–BuOH. The petroleum ether extract (1.2 kg) was subjected to a silica gel column eluted with petroleum ether–EtOAc (10:0 to 1:2, v/v) to afford five fractions. Fraction 5 was purified repeatedly over a Sephadex LH–20 column with a mixture of CHCl3–MeOH (1:1, v/v) to give title compound (500 mg). Single crystals suitable for X–ray
were obtained by slow evaporation from MeOH at room temperature.1H–NMR (600 MHz, DMS–d6), δ (p.p.m.): 5.53 (1H, s, –OH), 12.27 (1H, s, –OH), 7.94 (2H, m), 7.57 (3H, m), 6.70 (1H, s), 4.16 (3H, s), 4.12 (3H, s). 13C–NMR (100 MHz, DMS–d6), δ (p.p.m.): 183.0, 164.2, 146.8, 143.1, 142.1, 133.3, 133.1, 132.0, 131.4, 129.1, 126.3, 106.8, 105.1, 62.2, 61.5.
In the structure the H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined with using a riding model: C—H = 0.96Å for methyl H; C—H = 0.97Å for methylene H and C—H = 0.93Å for aryl H with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl H and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) for other. Hydroxy H atoms were positioned with O—H = 0.82Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O).
Saussurea involucrata (Kar. et Kir) Sch.–Bip is one of the precious Tibetan herbs that have been used for a long period of time. Modern pharmacological studies have reported that the herb exhibit a wide range of bioactivitie, including antioxidation, anti–inflammatory, anti–fatigue, anti–hypoxia, anti–cancer and analgesic effects. (Zheng et al., 1993; Gao et al., 2005; Tao et al., 2010; Ma et al., 2011; Jia et al., 2005; Liu et al., 1985; Paula et al., 2002).
Our chemical investigation of this herbs for components with anti–hypoxia activity resulted in the isolation of the title compound and crystal growth one, suitable for X–ray diffraction.
The molecular structure of title compound is almost planar; the dihedral angle between the benzopyran–4–one group and the attached phenyl group is 1.89 (6)° (Fig. 1).
In the crystal,the 5–hydroxy group forms a strong intramolecular hydrogen bond with the carbonyl group, resulting in a six–membered ring (Fig. 1). The centrosymmetrical dimers of title compound is linked by intermolecular O4—H4···O3i hydrogen bonds. Non–classical C—H···O hydrogen bonds (C2—H2···O2ii, C15—H15···O2ii and C14—H14···O4iii) and π–π interactions between molecule pairs (C3–C4–C5···C5i–C4i–C3i = 3.37 (2)–3.39 (2)Å are found in the All of these interactions build up a three–dimensional network. Symmetry codes: (i) -x, -y+1, -z; (ii) 1-x, -y, -z; (iii) 1+x, 1+y, z.

Geometry. All s.u.'s (except the s.u. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell s.u.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of s.u.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between s.u.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell s.u.'s is used for estimating s.u.'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. |

Saussurea involucrata (Kar. et Kir) Sch.–Bip is one of the precious Tibetan herbs that have been used for a long period of time. Modern pharmacological studies have reported that the herb exhibit a wide range of bioactivitie, including antioxidation, anti–inflammatory, anti–fatigue, anti–hypoxia, anti–cancer and analgesic effects. (Zheng et al., 1993; Gao et al., 2005; Tao et al., 2010; Ma et al., 2011; Jia et al., 2005; Liu et al., 1985; Paula et al., 2002).
Our chemical investigation of this herbs for components with anti–hypoxia activity resulted in the isolation of the title compound and crystal growth one, suitable for X–ray diffraction.
The molecular structure of title compound is almost planar; the dihedral angle between the benzopyran–4–one group and the attached phenyl group is 1.89 (6)° (Fig. 1).
In the crystal,the 5–hydroxy group forms a strong intramolecular hydrogen bond with the carbonyl group, resulting in a six–membered ring (Fig. 1). The centrosymmetrical dimers of title compound is linked by intermolecular O4—H4···O3i hydrogen bonds. Non–classical C—H···O hydrogen bonds (C2—H2···O2ii, C15—H15···O2ii and C14—H14···O4iii) and π–π interactions between molecule pairs (C3–C4–C5···C5i–C4i–C3i = 3.37 (2)–3.39 (2)Å are found in the crystal structure. All of these interactions build up a three–dimensional network. Symmetry codes: (i) -x, -y+1, -z; (ii) 1-x, -y, -z; (iii) 1+x, 1+y, z.
