Chemistry:Oroxindin
From HandWiki
Oroxindin is a flavone, a type of phenolic chemical compound. It is a wogonoside, more accurately a wogonin glucuronide isolated from Oroxylum indicum (Bignoniaceae),[1] Bacopa monnieri (Plantaginaceae), and Holmskioldia sanguinea (Chinese hat plant, Verbenaceae).[2]
Formation
A glucuronosyltransferase anzyme converts wogonin to its glucuronide by adding a sugar acid to one of the phenolic hydroxy group, with uridine diphosphate (UDP) as byproduct:[3]
