The crystal structures of two hydrates of aglycon flavonoids, fisetin dihydrate [systematic name: 2-(3,4-di­hydroxy­phen­yl)-3,7-dihy­droxy-4H-1-benzo­pyran-4-one dihydrate, C15H10O6·2H2O, P21, Z = 2] and luteolin monohydrate [systematic name: 2-(3,4-di­hydroxy­phen­yl)-3,7-dihy­droxy-4H-1-benzo­pyran-4-one monohydrate, C15H10O6·H2O, P41212, Z = 8] were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) and are reported for the first time. The two crystal forms were obtained from ethanol–water mixtures. These structures provide a foundation for future studies on the thermodynamic role of water mol­ecules in crystal stability and packing, enabling further investigation of hydration effects on flavonoid solubility and stability.

1. Chemical context

Flavonoids are a subgroup of polyphenolic compounds and are considered significant contributors to the health benefits of plant-based foods (Šamec et al., 2021View full citation; Panche et al., 2016View full citation). Recent reviews have emphasized that understanding the crystal structures of flavonoids is essential for predicting their surface properties and inter­molecular inter­actions, which directly influence solubility, stability and crystal morphology (Xu et al., 2023View full citation). Furthermore, co-crystal studies demonstrate the structural diversity of flavonoids and highlight the need for systematic crystallographic investigations to optimize their functional performance in food and pharmaceutical applications (He et al., 2016View full citation). An example of this is the work done by Klitou and co-workers (Klitou et al., 2019View full citation, 2020View full citation, 2022View full citation, 2023View full citation) that has highlighted the link between the crystal structure of quercetin (an aglycon flavonoid) and its crystallization behavior, including synthonic models that explain how mol­ecular information influences crystal packing and impacts crystallization processes. Similarly, several crystal structures containing fisetin have been reported, including fisetin (CCDC 1884089; Chadha et al., 2019View full citation) and co-crystals with caffeine (CCDC 986281; Sowa et al., 2014View full citation), nicotinamide (CCDC 986280; Sowa et al., 2014View full citation), glutaric acid (CCDC 1884086), malic acid (CCDC 1884087), and theophylline (CCDC 1884088; Cox et al., 2003View full citation). Luteolin has been shown to form a hemihydrate structure (CCDC 217463; Chadha et al., 2019View full citation) and co-crystals with L/D-proline (CCDC 1444362 and 1446362; He et al., 2016View full citation) and with 4,4′-bi­pyridine and ethyl acetate (CCDC 2385531; Xu et al., 2025View full citation). In addition, there is evidence that luteolin can form co-crystals with isoniazid and caffeine (Luo et al., 2019View full citation). These examples illustrate the ongoing inter­est and research in flavonoid solid forms, while highlighting that much remains to be discovered about their polymorphic and co-crystal landscapes. Comprehending the solid structures of flavonoids is crucial for controlling their functional properties in food and pharmaceuticals, providing a foundation for further thermodynamic and kinetic investigations.

2. Structural commentary

Fisetin dihydrate (1) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21 with one fisetin mol­ecule and two water mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit (Fig. 1[link]). The dihedral angle between the C1–C9/O4 fused ring system and the C10–C15 ring 4.76 (10)°, indicating an almost planar conformation. An intra­molecular O3—H3⋯O2 hydrogen bond (Table 1[link]) is observed, forming an S(5) ring motif. The relatively small O—H⋯O angle (114°) reflects the geometric constraints imposed by the five-membered ring.

Luteolin monohydrate (2) adopts the tetra­gonal space group P41212, containing one luteolin mol­ecule and one water mol­ecule per asymmetric unit (Fig. 2[link]). The water mol­ecule in (2) is disordered over two positions [occupancies 0.68 (4) and 0.32 (4)]. An intra­molecular O3—H3⋯O2 hydrogen bond is observed (H⋯O = 1.83 Å; Table 2[link]), forming an S(6) ring motif, which consolidates the mol­ecular conformation. The dihedral angle between the rings is 1.18 (14)°, showing that the mol­ecule is essentially planar. Bond lengths and angles are within expected ranges for flavonoids.

3. Supra­molecular features

The supra­molecular architecture of the hydrated forms was analyzed based on SCXRD data. Figs. 3[link] and 4[link] illustrate the unit-cell packing viewed along the b-axis direction for both structures.

Packing diagram of luteolin monohydrate (2) viewed along the a axis.

In fisetin dihydrate (1), hydrogen bonding between hydroxyl groups and water mol­ecules generates chains along the c-axis direction, which are further linked into layers through additional O—H⋯O inter­actions (Table 1[link]). In luteolin monohydrate (2), water mol­ecules act as hydrogen-bond donors and acceptors, bridging luteolin mol­ecules into an extended three-dimensional network (Table 2[link]). The disordered water mol­ecule participates in this network through its alternative positions.

Weak ππ inter­actions are observed in both structures. In (1), a short Cg1⋯Cg2(x, y + 1, z) distance of 3.4210 (15) Å is observed between the O4/C4/C5/C7–C9 and C1–C6 rings (slippage 0.980 Å). In (2), the shortest centroid–centroid distance is observed between rings O4/C4/C5/C7–C9 and C10–C15 with Cg1⋯Cg2(x − 1, y, z) distance of 3.722 (3) Å (slippage 1.715 Å). These contacts are illustrated in Figs. 5[link] and 6[link]. In addition, weak inter­molecular C12—H12⋯Cg3(−x + Mathematical equation, y + Mathematical equation, −z − Mathematical equation) and C7=O3⋯Cg3(x − 1, y, z) inter­actions contribute to the consolidation of the crystal packing in (2) with a H12⋯Cg3 distance of 2.90 Å and O3⋯Cg3 separation of 3.428 (4) Å.

4. Database survey

The Cambridge Structural Database (CSD version 2025.3; Groom et al., 2016View full citation) contains several entries for fisetin and luteolin. The structures presented in this work are the first reported fisetin dihydrate (1) and luteolin monohydrate (2).

Studies on related flavonoids, particularly quercetin, have shown that incorporation of water mol­ecules promotes a more planar mol­ecular conformation, facilitating efficient ππ stacking and enhancing crystal stability (Klitou et al., 2019View full citation). A similar trend is observed for fisetin: the anhydrous form (CCDC 1884089; Chadha et al., 2019View full citation) and some co-crystals, such as those with glutaric and malic acid (CCDC 1884086 and 1884087; Cox et al., 2003View full citation), exhibit larger dihedral angles and reduced planarity, whereas others (e.g. caffeine, CCDC 986281; Sowa et al., 2014View full citation) are closer to planar; these differences have been linked to variations in stability and water solubility (Chadha et al., 2019View full citation). In contrast, the fisetin dihydrate reported here (1) is nearly planar, suggesting a stabilizing effect of hydration.

For luteolin, reported structures [e.g. hemihydrate (CCDC 217463; Chadha et al., 2019View full citation) and co-crystals with L/D-proline (CCDC 1444362 and 1446362; He et al., 2016View full citation), and 4,4′-bi­pyridine (CCDC 2385531; Xu et al., 2025View full citation) are predominantly planar, making it difficult to isolate a hydration effect. Nevertheless, they consistently highlight the importance of hydrogen bonding, including water-mediated inter­actions, together with ππ stacking in consolidating the crystal packing.

5. Materials and crystallization

Materials

Fisetin (3,3′,4′,7-tetra­hydroxy­flavone, CAS 528-48-3, ≥98% purity, Cat. No. CS-7840-25g), luteolin (3′,4′,5,7-tetra­hydroxy­flavone, CAS 491-70-3, ≥98% purity – HPLC, Cat. No. 42437-25g) and 7-hy­droxy­flavone (CAS 6665-86-7, ≥98% purity – Assay, Cat. No. 22027-25g) were purchased from Tzamal D-Chem (Israel). The three compounds are structurally related aglycon flavonoids, and they were subjected to similar ethanol–water crystallization conditions; they produced single crystals of sufficient size and quality for X-ray analysis. The compounds were received as powders and stored under refrigeration (277 K) prior to use.

Crystal growth

For each flavonoid, crystals were obtained by preparing a stock solution in absolute ethanol, without additional purification, followed by dilution with double-distilled water (DDW) to reach the desired final ethanol/water ratio. A 4 mM stock solution of fisetin in absolute ethanol was diluted with DDW to achieve 20% (v/v) ethanol/water ratio. The solution, 5 mL total, was incubated in a sealed glass vial at 315 K for 10 days, yielding yellow needle-shaped crystals. A 2 mM solution of luteolin in absolute ethanol was diluted with DDW to obtain 2% (v/v) ethanol/water (5mL total). The solution was placed in an open vial and evaporated at 333 K for 12h, producing colorless needle-shaped crystals. 7-Hy­droxy­flavone monohydrate, a known analogue (Kumar et al., 1998View full citation), was crystallized from a solution of 33% (v/v) ethanol 4mM solution, which was evaporated at 333 K for 12h, yielding colorless needle-shaped crystals.

Polarized light imaging

Representative crystals were imaged using an Olympus BX51 optical microscope under cross-polarized light. Samples were prepared by placing the crystals in the original aqueous solution between a glass slide and a cover slip. Images were captured at 10 and 20 × magnifications. Crystal dimensions were measured using ImageJ software, version 1.53e (Schneider et al., 2012View full citation).

The polarized light images demonstrate the typical size of the grown crystals. For fisetin dihydrate (1) (Fig. 7[link]), only the larger crystals were measured; the sample also contained smaller particles of approximately 40 µm. Among the larger crystals, lengths ranged from 610–750 µm with thicknesses of 9–18 µm. For luteolin monohydrate (2) (Fig. 8[link]), needle-shaped crystals were observed. Numerous small crystals measured 200–300 µm in length and 2–4 µm in thickness, while a few larger crystals reached 580–600 µm in length and 9–16 µm in thickness.

6. Data collection and refinement

A single crystal of yellow needle-shaped C15H14O8 (identified as fisetin dihydrate) (1) and a single crystal of colorless block-shaped C15H12O7 (identified as luteolin monohydrate) (2) were immersed in Paratone N oil and mounted on a Rigaku Oxford Diffraction XtaLAB Synergy S diffractometer at 100 K. Data collection was carried out using monochromatic Mo Kα radiation (λ = 0.71073 Å) for (1) and Cu Kα radiation (λ = 1.54184 Å) for (2), with φ and ω scans to ensure adequate coverage of reciprocal space. The structures were solved using Olex2 (Dolomanov et al., 2009View full citation) with the olex2.solve algorithm (Bourhis et al., 2015View full citation) (charge flipping) and refined by full-matrix least squares on F2 using SHELXL (Sheldrick, 2015View full citation). All non hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically. Hydrogen atoms were refined isotopically on calculated positions using a riding model with their Uiso(H) values constrained to 1.5 times the Ueq of their pivot atoms for terminal sp3 carbon atoms and 1.2 times for all other carbon atoms. Mol­ecular graphics were prepared using Mercury 2022.3.0 (Macrae et al., 2020View full citation). Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 3[link].

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

Special details top

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