Flavonoids have been documented to have good antioxidant activities in vitro. In recent years, reports on the antioxidant activities of flavone C-glycosides, a subclass of flavonoids, have attracted great attention. Despite the wealth of information on this subject, the correlation between structure and function is not well understood. In this work, the relationship between the structure and the antioxidant activity of 12 flavone C-glycosides extracted from the aerial part of winter linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.…
