ABSTRACT

The phytochemical study of Conocliniopsis prasiifolia. (DC) R. M. King & H. Robinson (Asteraceae) yielded four substances which were identified by spectral analysis as the flavonoids 5-hydroxy-4′,7-dimethoxyflavone, 4′,5,6,7-tetramethoxyflavone, 4′,5,7-trimethoxyflavone and 4′,5-dihydroxy-7-methoxyflavone, described here for the first time in this species. The evaluation of analgesic activity of the crude extract, carried out by the hot plate test in mice, suggests a potent antinociceptive effect.
