The major purpose ofthis third volume in The Flavonoidsseries is to
provide a detailed review of progress in the field during the five
years, 1981-1985 inclusive. It thus continues the comprehensive
coverage of the literature on these fascinating and important plant
pigments which began in 1975 with the publication of The Flavonoids
and which was followed in 1982 with The Flavonoids: Advances in
Research. As with the two previous vo1umes, this one is entire1y
se1f-contained and where necessary tabu1ar data and references from
earlier vo1umes are included and expanded here. A unique feature is
the complete listing in the Appendix ofall known flavonoids, which
now number over 4000 structures; in this list, structures newly
reported during the period 1981-1985 are so indicated. The first
ten chaptersofthis book provide a critical review ofthe new
substancesthat have been discovered among each of the main classes
of flavonoid during the period under review. Again, the numberofnew
isoflavonoids reported outweighs that ofother classesand ahundred
pagesare needed to describe all the nove1 findings. Neoflavonoids,
which were omitted in the first supplement, have been included
again and a special chapter on miscellaneous flavonoids has been
introduced to cope with those structures (e.g. homoisoflavonoids)
which do not fit in easily anywhere else. Although there have been
advances in flavonoid methodology, these have not been
asspectacular as in earlier years. Hence, literature reports on new
chromatographic and spectral procedures are included here in the
individual chapters under the different flavonoid classes.
