Synthesis and characterization of a new water-soluble sodium5,7,4'-trihydroxyflavone-6,3'-disulfonate

摘要

Aim To synthesize a new water-soluble Na 2(C15H8O5)(SO3) 2 and determine its structure.Method The new water-soluble apigenin sulfonated derivative was synthesized by sulfonation with concentrated sulfuric acid at 40℃for half an hour and the products were obtained in ethanol-water(V∶V =1∶1).The structure of the product was identified by IR,NMR spectrum and elemental analysis.Results and Conclusion After highly selective introduced two - SO 3 groups at C3′and C6of the substrate,the new water-soluble apigenin sulfonated derivative,sodium 5,7,4 '-trihydroxyflavone-6,3′-sulfonate was obtained in good yield(78%) at moderate conditions.This method is an ideal synthesis way because of its simple operation,mild reaction conditions,high selectivity,easy separation of the product and higher yield.
