Definition
2'-hydroxypseudobaptigenin is a member of the class of compounds known as isoflavones. Isoflavones are polycyclic compounds containing a 2-isoflavene skeleton which bears a ketone group at the C4 carbon atom. 2'-hydroxypseudobaptigenin is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). 2'-hydroxypseudobaptigenin can be found in a number of food items such as sorghum, cucurbita (gourd), rubus (blackberry, raspberry), and pineapple, which makes 2'-hydroxypseudobaptigenin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Belongs to the class of organic compounds known as isoflavones. These are polycyclic compounds containing a 2-isoflavene skeleton which bears a ketone group at the C4 carbon atom.
