Note

A new chromone, named 5,6-dihydroxy-2-methylchromone (FL-2), along with seven known flavonoids, 5-hydroxy-7,3,3′,4′-tetramethoxyflavone (FL-3), 5,4′-dihydroxy-6,7,8-trimethoxyflavone (FL-4), 5,4′-dihydroxy-7,8-dimethoxyflavone (FL-5), 4-methoxychalcone (FL-6), 7,4′-dimethoxyapigenin (FL-7), 5,7,4′-trihydroxy-2′,3′,6′-trimethoxyisoflavone (FL-8 a rare flavonoid), acacetin-7- O -glucoside (FL-9) and acacetin-7- O -neohesperidoside (FL-10), and -sitosterol- d -glucoside (FL-1) have been isolated from the leaves of Ficus lyrata . Their structures have been established on the basis of chemical and spectral evidence (IR, UV, 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR and mass spectra).
