(-)-medicarpin is a member of the class of compounds known as isoflavonoids. Isoflavonoids are natural products derived from 3-phenylchromen-4-one (-)-medicarpin is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). (-)-medicarpin can be found in a number of food items such as oriental wheat, arrowroot, french plantain, and grape, which makes (-)-medicarpin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
