Abstract

Thymelaea
microphylla
Coss. et Dur is an endemic desert species from Algeria belongs to Thymelaeaceae
family. The dichloromethane-methanolic extract from aerial parts of T.
microphylla
was subjected to silica gel column. Three flavonoids were
isolated from the extract; isochamaejasmin (1), cis-tiliroside (2) and
trans-tiliroside (3). The structures of the compounds were determined on the
basis of the HPLC-TOF/MS, 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic analysis. To the best of
our knowledge, compound (1) was isolated from T. microphylla for the
first time and 
there is no report in the literature. Moreover, in
this study, antioxidant activity of the compound (3) was also evaluated.
