• Descripción: 4-Methoxy-2',4',6'-trihydroxydihydrochalcone is a dihydrochalcone derivative, which is a type of flavonoid. This compound originates mainly from the modification of natural compounds found in certain plants, specifically apples and other fruits, and is structurally related to the more commonly known sweetening agent, phlorizin. Its mode of action involves binding to taste receptors, primarily T1R2/T1R3, which are responsible for sweet taste perception. This interaction enhances the sweet taste, making it a potent non-nutritive sweetener. Due to its sweetening properties without adding calories, 4-Methoxy-2',4',6'-trihydroxydihydrochalcone is studied for potential applications in food and beverage industries where sugar reduction is essential. It also shows potential in pharmaceutical formulations to improve the palatability of medicinal compounds. Moreover, its antioxidant properties may contribute to health benefits, though further research is required to fully understand its potential therapeutic uses.
