Betavulgarin
Betavulgarin, also known as 2-hydroxy-5-methoxy-6,7-methylenedioxyisoflavone, is a member of the class of compounds known as isoflavones. Isoflavones are polycyclic compounds containing a 2-isoflavene skeleton which bears a ketone group at the C4 carbon atom. Thus, betavulgarin is considered to be a flavonoid lipid molecule. Betavulgarin is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Betavulgarin can be found in chickpea, common beet, and red beetroot, which makes betavulgarin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Betavulgarin
A hydroxyisoflavone that is isoflavone substituted by a hydroxy group at position 2, a methoxy group at position 5 and a methylenedioxy group across positions 6 and 7 respectively.
