6-methoxy-4-methyl-2H-chromen-2-one

Description:
6-Methoxy-4-methyl-2H-chromen-2-one, also known as 6-methoxyflavone, is a synthetic flavonoid compound characterized by its chromenone structure. It features a methoxy group at the 6-position and a methyl group at the 4-position of the chromenone ring. This compound is typically a yellow crystalline solid, exhibiting moderate solubility in organic solvents such as ethanol and dimethyl sulfoxide, while being less soluble in water. Its molecular structure contributes to its potential biological activities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties, which have been the subject of various studies. The presence of the methoxy group enhances its lipophilicity, potentially influencing its pharmacokinetic properties.
