The aerial parts of the endemic Australian plant Eremophila debilis (Myoporaceae) contain 3% dry weight of the biologically active 5,6,7,3′,4′,5′-hexamethoxyflavone, which had its structured confirmed using X-ray crystal crystallography. The presence of significant levels of the polypharmacologically active 5,6,7,3′,4′,5′-hexamethoxyflavone in the edible parts of the plant has potential implications for its use as a food and bush medicine.The aerial parts of the endemic Australian plant Eremophila debilis (Myoporaceae) contain 3% dry weight of the biologically active 5,6,7,3′,4′,5′-hexamethoxyflavone, which had its structured confirmed using X-ray crystal crystallography.
