Natural Product Identification
Common NameLimocitrol
DescriptionLimocitrol belongs to the class of organic compounds known as flavonols. Flavonols are compounds that contain a flavone (2-phenyl-1-benzopyran-4-one) backbone carrying a hydroxyl group at the 3-position. Thus, limocitrol is considered to be a flavonoid lipid molecule. Limocitrol is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Outside of the human body, Limocitrol has been detected, but not quantified in, citrus and lemons. Limocitrol is found in Cassia fistula , Citrus spp., Gutierrezia microcephala and Primula officinalis . This could make limocitrol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods.
