Abstract
The flavonoid glycosides of Medicago radiata as well as M. arabica, M. polymorpha, M. sativa, Trigonella coerulescens, T. foenum-graecum and T. spicata were studied in detail. Major glycosides identified were the 7-glucuronides of apigenin, luteolin, chrysoeriol and tricin, as well as lesser amounts of di- and triglucuronides of chrysoeriol and tricin. Also identified were the 3-robinobioside and 3,7-diglucoside of kaempferol, along with lesser amounts of quercetin-3,7-diglucoside, 4′,7-dihydroxyflavone, 3′,4′,7-trihydroxyflavone, formononetin and daidzein. Twelve other Medicago and Trigonella species were also studied for their flavonoid aglycones. The systematic position of M. radiata is discussed.
