A new flavone, named crotoncaudatin (1), was isolated from the stems of Croton caudatus Geisel. var. tomentosus Hook., together with nine known analogues: 3,5,6,7,8,3′,4′-heptamethoxyflavone (2), tangeretin (3), nobiletin (4), 5,6,7,4′-tetramethoxy-flavone (5), sinensetin (6), kaempferol (7), tiliroside (8), kaempferol-3-O-rutinoside (9) and rutin (10). The structures of the above compounds were established by a combination of spectroscopic methods, including HR-ESI-MS, ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR, HMQC and HMBC spectra^. All compounds were isolated from and identified in this species for the first time and compounds 1-6 are new for the genus Croton.
