描述
(2s)-pinocembrin, also known as 5,7-dihydroxyflavanone or dihydrochrysin, is a member of the class of compounds known as flavanones. Flavanones are compounds containing a flavan-3-one moiety, with a structure characterized by a 2-phenyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-1-benzopyran bearing a ketone at the carbon C3. Thus, (2s)-pinocembrin is considered to be a flavonoid lipid molecule (2s)-pinocembrin is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). (2s)-pinocembrin can be found in a number of food items such as acorn, lentils, mulberry, and sorghum, which makes (2s)-pinocembrin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
