Versuchsvorschrift

Into 200 ml. of a mixed solvent of ethyl acetate and methanol at a ratio of 1:1 was dissolved 1.11 g. of 3',4'-bis(benzyloxy)-5,6,7,8-tetramethoxyflavone and added 0.2 to 0.3 g. of 10% palladium-charcoal. The resulting mixture was mixed with shaking in a stream of H2 gas until H2 absorption was completed. After filtering out the catalyst, the obtained filtrate was concentrated. The residue was recrystallized from methanol to give 0.74 g. (97% of the theoretical amount) of the desired compound being a colorless prismatic crystal.
