描述
Gardenin b, also known as demethyltangeretin or 5-hydroxy-4',6,7,8-tetramethoxyflavone, is a member of the class of compounds known as 8-o-methylated flavonoids. 8-o-methylated flavonoids are flavonoids with methoxy groups attached to the C8 atom of the flavonoid backbone. Thus, gardenin b is considered to be a flavonoid lipid molecule. Gardenin b is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Gardenin b can be found in mandarin orange (clementine, tangerine), peppermint, sweet basil, and winter savory, which makes gardenin b a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
