Definition
2,7-dihydroxy-4'-methoxyisoflavanone is a member of the class of compounds known as 4'-o-methylated isoflavonoids. 4'-o-methylated isoflavonoids are isoflavonoids with methoxy groups attached to the C4' atom of the isoflavonoid backbone. Isoflavonoids are natural products derived from 3-phenylchromen-4-one. 2,7-dihydroxy-4'-methoxyisoflavanone is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). 2,7-dihydroxy-4'-methoxyisoflavanone can be found in a number of food items such as rice, mango, wild rice, and purslane, which makes 2,7-dihydroxy-4'-methoxyisoflavanone a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 4'-o-methylated isoflavonoids. These are isoflavonoids with methoxy groups attached to the C4' atom of the isoflavonoid backbone. Isoflavonoids are natural products derived from 3-phenylchromen-4-one.
