Abstract
ABSTRACI
The flavonoid of the flowers of sixtees members of the Papilionaceae were examined using paper chronatography. Thirty flavonoids were identified on the basis of colcur reactions and where necessary co-chromatography with authentic markers. A flavonoid profile of each plant has been constructed. This is is the first report of such a comprehensive biochemical study and this work contributes to the under standing of the chemistry of this important flora and their application in local medicine.
Two new solvent systems were developed in the course of this work which will aid flavonoid research immensely.
