β¦ Synopsis
Hinokiflavone (I) has been reported' as the sole example of naturally occurring biflavonyl ether.
We now report a new type of biflavonyl ether isolated from Ochna squarrosa Linn. (Ochnaceae) and named ochnaflavone (II). Although biflavones so far isolated have been obtained mostly from gymnosperm, some biflavanoids 2 such as morelloflavone 3 and fukugetin4 were isolated from Guttiferae plants.
Ochnaceae is a family closely related to Guttiferae.
