ABSTRACT
This study was set to investigate the flavonoids of Aristolochia bracteata which is a key species in indigenous medicine. Flavonoids encompass a large group of polyphenolic substances with marked physiological potential including: antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antiallergic, antifungal, antimutagenic, antiviral and vasodilator effects. Aristolochia bracteata showed many beneficial pharmacological effects. It is used in ethnomedicine as anthelmintic, antiinflammatory, antipyretic and as purgative. Roots are used by local healers to treat gonorrhea and syphilis. In this study a flavone was isolated from leaves by paper chromatography and its structure was partially elucidated on the basis of its spectral data(UV,1HNMR and MS).
