The flavonoids are a very large group of natural products and are derived from flavone,
which is found in primula plants.
Some flavonoids are intensely colored and provide a wide
range of blue and red colors in flowers, fruits and leaves. Others, like the flavonones,
are essentially colorless and yet they provide the "whiteness" of white flowers.
They exhibit a wide range of biological properties including antimicrobial, insecticidal
and oestrogenic activities.
Edited by the world's leading researcher in flavonoid chemistry and biochemistry, this 2-volume set
provides leading-edge information about these products.
This mammoth work is the essential guide to the chemical
structure and function of all know flavonoids and contains:
