Two flavonoids 3,5,7,3',4'-pentahydroxy-6-prenylflavonol (1) and 3,5,7,3',4'-pentahydroxy-8-methyl-6-prenylflavonol (2) were isolated from the ethyl acetate extract of sheaths of Vellozia kolbekii Alves (Velloziaceae). This is the first time that compound 2 has been described. The crude extract and
BACKGROUND
Snakebite is a significant public health issue in tropical countries. In Brazil, some of the most common snake envenomations are from Bothrops. Bothrops bites trigger local and systemic effects including edema, pain, erythema, cyanosis, infections, and necrosis. Vellozia flavicans is a
From the hexane and ethyl acetate extracts obtained from stems, roots and leaf sheaths of Vellozia graminifolia, a mixture of linear hydrocarbons, a mixture of pentacyclic triterpenes, five monoisoprenylated flavonoids and one labdane diterpene, (-)-ent-3beta-hydroxy-8(17)-labden-15-oic acid, were
Further lipophilic flavonols present in Vellozia graminifolia have been determined by high temperature high resolution gas chromatography (HTHRGC) and by HTHRGC coupled to mass spectrometry (MS). These methods resulted in the detection, isolation and characterisation of a monoisoprenylated flavonol
