Antioxidative Flavonol Glucuronides and Anti-HBsAg Flavonol from Rotala rotundifolia
Two new flavonol glucuronides, quercetin 3-O-β-D-2″-acetylglucuronide (1) and quercetin 3-O-β-D-2″-acetylglucuronide methyl ester (2), along with four known flavonoids (3-6) were isolated from the whole parts of Rotala rotundifolia. The structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated by application of various spectroscopic methods, including 1D and 2D NMR ...

Flavones’ and Flavonols’ Antiradical Structure–Activity Relationship—A Quantum Chemical Study
Flavonoids are known for their antiradical capacity, and this ability is strongly structure-dependent. In this research, the activity of flavones and flavonols in a water solvent was studied with the density functional theory methods.

Molecular Basis for Chemical Evolution of Flavones to Flavonols and Anthocyanins in Land Plants1
Functional flavone synthase Is in liverworts are evolutionarily linked to seed plant flavanone 3β-hydroxylases, and bifunctional enzymes likely represent a transition between the two enzymes.
