Dihydrochalcone (DHC) is the organic compound with the formula C6H5C(O)(CH2)2C6H5. It is the reduced derivative of chalcone (C6H5C(O)(CH)2C6H5). It is white solid that is soluble in many organic solvents. Dihydrochalcone per se is often minor significance, but some derivatives occur in nature and have attracted attention as drugs.[1]
Natural dihydrochalcones
- Aspalathin, a C-linked dihydrochalcone glucoside found in rooibos, a common herbal tea
- Naringin dihydrochalcone, an artificial sweetener derived from naringin
- Neohesperidin dihydrochalcone, an artificial sweetener derived from citrus
- Nothofagin, a C-linked phloretin glucoside found in rooibos

- Isosalipurpurin
Dihydrochalcones (3′,5′-dihydroxy-2′,4′,6′-trimethoxydihydrochalcone (methyl linderone) and 2′-hydroxy-3′,4′,5′,6′-tetramethoxydihydrochalcone (dihydrokanakugiol) can be found in twigs of Lindera lucida.[2]
