7-methylchrysin, also known as 5-hydroxy-7-methoxyflavone or techtochrysin, 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, 7-methylchrysin is considered to be a flavonoid lipid molecule. 7-methylchrysin is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). 7-methylchrysin can be found in pine nut, prunus (cherry, plum), sour cherry, and sweet cherry, which makes 7-methylchrysin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. relative retention time with respect to 9-anthracene Carboxylic Acid is 1.330 relative retention time with respect to 9-anthracene Carboxylic Acid is 1.324 Tectochrysin (Techtochrysin) is one of the major flavonoids of Alpinia oxyphylla Miquel. Tectochrysin inhibits activity of NF-κB. Tectochrysin (Techtochrysin) is one of the major flavonoids of Alpinia oxyphylla Miquel. Tectochrysin inhibits activity of NF-κB.
