Abstract
The synthesis of natural 3′,3′′′-binaringenin
and four related biflavonoids was performed in good overall yield
(15-35%) starting from readily available phloroglucinol
and 4-hydroxy- or 4-methoxybenzaldehyde. Preliminary results indicate
that some of these compounds have an interesting activity against S. aureus .
Key words
binaringenin - biapigenin - protecting groups - antibacterial activity

54 Treatment with BBr3 (2
equiv) in CH2 Cl2 at different temperatures
gives no reaction or else ring opening to the chalcone 20 ; the treatment with 57% HI
in glacial AcOH at reflux gives mixtures of chalcone, flavanone,
and dihydrochalcone in low yields, and the use of AlCl3 in benzene
at reflux resulted in decomposition.
