The derivative of chrysin 7-O-cyclopropanecarboxylate was synthesized by condensing cyclopropanecarboxylic acid with chrysin in organic solvent, and its structure was identified by NMR, MS, UV IR etc. We also investigated the physico-chemical properties, anti-diabetic effect and set up the quantitative analytical method of this compound. The correlation coefficient of calibration curve on this compound was approximately 0.9985 by absorption spectrophotometry. And, this study was carried out to investigate the hair-growth effect of chrysin derivative to the black mouse (C57BL/6). When this derivative in ethanol solution was administered to the back of mouse by method of skin paste, this derivative promoted the hair growth of mouse.
