| GENERAL
DESCRIPTION OF FLAVONOID |
| Flavonoid
is any member of a class of widely distributed biological natural
products containing aromatic heterocyclic skeleton of flavan
(2-Phenylbenzopyran) but no nitrogen in plants. Generally, flavonoids
are biological pigments providing colours from red to blue in
flowers, fruit and leaves. Besides their coloring in plants,
flavonoids have important roles in the growth and development
of plants; protection against UV-B radiation; forming antifungal
barriers; antimicrobial, insecticidal and oestrogenic activities;
plant reproduction. Flavonoids also exhibit a wide range of
biological properties including anti-microbial, insecticidal
and oestrogenic activities. |
| Flavonoids
are usually classified into 6 subgroups according to the structural
patterns: |
|
| Flavonols:
Fisetin, Galangin, Kaempferide, Kaempferol, Morin, Myricetin,
Myricitrin, Quercetin, Quercetrin, Rhamnetin, Robinin, Rutin,
Spirenoside |
|
| Flavones:
Apigenin, Baicalein, Chrysin, Diosmetin, Diosmin, Flavone, Luteolin,

|
| Flavonones:
Eriodictyol, Hesperidin, Hesperetin, Likvirtin, Naringin; Naringenin;
Pinocembrin |
|
| Flavan-3-ols:

(EGC), (-)-Epicatechin 3-gallate (ECG), (-)-Epigallocatechin
3-gallate (EGCG), Theaflavin, Theaflavin 3-gallate, Theaflavin
3'-gallate, Theaflavin 3,3' digallate, Thearubigins |
