Metabolite Identification
Common NameLiquiritigenin
DescriptionLiquiritigenin belongs to the class of organic compounds known as flavanones. Flavanones are compounds containing a flavan-3-one moiety, with a structure characterized by a 2-phenyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-1-benzopyran bearing a ketone at the carbon C3. Thus, liquiritigenin is considered to be a flavonoid. Liquiritigenin is a bitter tasting compound. Liquiritigenin has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as arabica coffees (Coffea arabica), kai-lans (Brassica oleracea var. alboglabra), blackberries (Rubus), walnuts (Juglans), and tortilla. This could make liquiritigenin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Liquiritigenin is a secondary metabolite. Secondary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically non-essential metabolites that may serve a role as defense or signalling molecules. In some cases they are simply molecules that arise from the incomplete metabolism of other secondary metabolites. Based on a literature review a small amount of articles have been published on Liquiritigenin.
