Phytochemical study of the ethanol extract of the twigs of Eriosema robustum, a Cameroonian medicinal plant resulted to the isolation of two new flavones, 2',3',5',5,7-pentahydroxy-3,4'-dimethoxyflavone (1) and 2',3,5',5,7-pentahydroxy-4'-methoxyflavone (2), along with five known compounds: 6-prenylpinocembrin (3), 1-O-heptatriacontanoyl glycerol (4), beta-sitosterol (5), stigmasterol (6) and 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside of sitosterol (7). The structure of the isolated compounds were elucidated on the basis of their NMR, UV and MS data, and by comparison with those reported in the literature. The ethanol crude extract, fractions and some isolated compounds (1-4) were evaluated for their radical scavenging capacity using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryhydrazyl (DPPH). The crude extract, fraction II, the new compounds namely robusflavones A (1) and B (2) exhibited significant antioxidant activity. (C) 2012 Phytochemical Society of Europe. Published by Elsevier B.
