Eupatorin
Eupatorin, also known as 3,5-dihydroxy-4,6,7-trimethoxyflavone, is a member of the class of compounds known as 7-o-methylated flavonoids. 7-o-methylated flavonoids are flavonoids with methoxy groups attached to the C7 atom of the flavonoid backbone. Thus, eupatorin is considered to be a flavonoid lipid molecule. Eupatorin is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Eupatorin can be found in lemon verbena, mandarin orange (clementine, tangerine), and peppermint, which makes eupatorin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Eupatorin, a naturally occurring flavone, arrests cells at the G2-M phase of the cell cycle and induces apoptotic cell death involving activation of multiple caspases, mitochondrial release of cytochrome c and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase cleavage[1].

Eupatorin
Eupatorin is a trimethoxyflavone that is 6-hydroxyluteolin in which the phenolic hydogens at positions 4, 6 and 7 have been replaced by methyl groups. It has a role as a Brassica napus metabolite, an apoptosis inducer, a vasodilator agent, a calcium channel blocker, an anti-inflammatory agent, a P450 inhibitor and an antineoplastic agent. It is a dihydroxyflavone, a trimethoxyflavone and a polyphenol. It is functionally related to a 6-hydroxyluteolin. Eupatorin is a natural product found in Eupatorium album, Eupatorium altissimum, and other organisms with data available.
