  <name>Citflavanone</name>
  <description>Citflavanone is a member of the class of compounds known as diphenylmethanes. Diphenylmethanes are compounds containing a diphenylmethane moiety, which consists of a methane wherein two hydrogen atoms are replaced by two phenyl groups. Citflavanone is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Citflavanone can be found in sweet orange, which makes citflavanone a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. </description>
