Drupanin

Description:

Drupanin, with the CAS number 53755-58-1, is a naturally occurring compound classified as a flavonoid. It is primarily extracted from the fruit of certain plants, particularly those in the genus Prunus, such as cherries and plums. Drupanin exhibits a range of biological activities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and potential anticancer properties, making it of interest in pharmacological research. The compound is characterized by its polyphenolic structure, which contributes to its reactivity and interaction with various biological systems. Drupanin is soluble in organic solvents and has limited solubility in water, which is typical for many flavonoids. Its stability can be influenced by environmental factors such as light and temperature, necessitating careful handling and storage. Research into Drupanin's mechanisms of action and potential therapeutic applications is ongoing, highlighting its significance in natural product chemistry and its potential benefits in health and nutrition.
