Chemical Information
FooDB NameEupafolin
DescriptionEupafolin, also known as 6-methoxy 5 or 73'4'-tetrahydroxyflavone, is a member of the class of compounds known as 6-o-methylated flavonoids. 6-o-methylated flavonoids are flavonoids with methoxy groups attached to the C6 atom of the flavonoid backbone. Thus, eupafolin is considered to be a flavonoid lipid molecule. Eupafolin is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Eupafolin can be found in common sage, lemon verbena, rosemary, and sesame, which makes eupafolin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
