Chemical Information
FooDB NameCirsilineol
DescriptionCirsilineol, also known as 4',5-dihydroxy-3',6,7-trimethoxy-flavone or anisomelin, 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, cirsilineol is considered to be a flavonoid lipid molecule. Cirsilineol is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Cirsilineol can be found in a number of food items such as common thyme, tarragon, common sage, and hyssop, which makes cirsilineol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Cirsilineol is a bioactive flavone isolated from Artemisia and from Teucrium gnaphalodes .
