Antiprotozoal Activity of Flavonoids Isolated from Mimosa tenuiflora (Fabaceae-Mimosoideae)
As result of the chemical study of the leaves and flowers of Mimosa tenuiflora (Willd.) Poir. (Fabaceae-Mimosoideae) eigth flavonoids were isolated: 6-methoxy-4¿-O-methylnaringenin (1), santin (2), 6-methoxynaringenin (3), tenuiflorin A (4), 5, 7, 4¿-trihydroxy-3, 6-dimethoxyflavone (5), 6-demethoxy...

| Sumario: | As result of the chemical study of the leaves and flowers of Mimosa tenuiflora (Willd.) Poir. (Fabaceae-Mimosoideae) eigth flavonoids were isolated: 6-methoxy-4¿-O-methylnaringenin (1), santin (2), 6-methoxynaringenin (3), tenuiflorin A (4), 5, 7, 4¿-trihydroxy-3, 6-dimethoxyflavone (5), 6-demethoxy-4¿-O-methylcapilarisine (6), 6- methoxykaempferol (7) and tenuiflorin C (8). Antiprotozoal activity of these compounds as well as the tenuiflorina B (9) and 6-desmethoxycapilarisine (10), isolated in a previous study was assessed against Entamoeba histolytica and Giardia lamblia trophozoites. |
