Abstract : A practical synthesis of polyhydroxy- and regiospecifically methylated flavone-3-ols which are components of commercial ‘seabuckthorn flavone’ has been achieved by modified Algar–Flynn–Oyamada method. Antioxidant activities of seabuckthorn extracts, isolated products and a number of flavone-3-ols have been determined. Structure–activity relationships have been discussed. Amongst the compounds tested, gallic acid, which is also present in seabuckthorn, was found to be the most effective antioxidant and radioprotectant.
