The crude drugs of Rhynchosia are used in the formation of fermented liquor having antioxidative, antitumor, skin whitening and arthritis preventing and treating effects. Since now no phytochemical studies have been carried out on this species but many important compounds have been discovered from other species of genus Rhynchosia. Tirumalin, a prenylated dihydroflavanol was isolated from Rhynchosia cyanosperma. Rhynchosin, a new 5-deoxyflavonol was isolated from leaves of Rhynchosia beddomei. The leaves of Rhynchosia rufescenes contain methylated flavonols such as kaempferol, kaempferol 3-methyl ether and quercetin 3-methyl ether, which are of chemotaxonomic importance. Many flavonoides have been Synthesis of Some 4'-O Substituted Derivatives of Natural Naringin and Their Biological Screening
