Natural Product Identification
Common NameEchinatin
DescriptionEchinatin belongs to the class of organic compounds known as retrochalcones. These are a form of normal chalcones that are structurally distinguished by the lack of oxygen functionalities at the C2'- and C6'-positions. Thus, echinatin is considered to be a flavonoid. Echinatin is found in Bauhinia manca, Dracaena draco, Glycyrrhiza aspera, Glycyrrhiza echinata , Glycyrrhiza glabra , Glycyrrhiza glara, Glycyrrhiza inflata , Glycyrrhiza pallidiflora and Glycyrrhiza uralensis . Echinatin was first documented in 2021 (PMID: 34598043). Based on a literature review a small amount of articles have been published on Echinatin (PMID: 35178925) (PMID: 35082510) (PMID: 34576274) (PMID: 34527599).
