- CAS No.: 551-15-5
- Formula:C21H22O9
- Molecular Weight:418.39
IUPAC Name: (S)-7-hydroxy-2-(4-(((2S,3R,4S,5S,6R)-3,4,5-trihydroxy-6-(hydroxymethyl)tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)oxy)phenyl)chroman-4-one
InChIKey: DEMKZLAVQYISIA-ZRWXNEIDSA-N
SMILES: O=C1C[C@@H](C2=CC=C(O[C@H]3[C@@H]([C@H]([C@@H]([C@@H](CO)O3)O)O)O)C=C2)OC4=CC(O)=CC=C14
Biological Activity: Liquiritin, a flavonoid isolated from Glycyrrhiza uralensis, is a potent and competitive AKR1C1 inhibitor with IC50s of 0.62 μM, 0.61 μM, and 3.72μM for AKR1C1, AKR1C2 and AKR1C3, respectively. Liquiritin efficiently inhibits progesterone metabolism mediated by AKR1C1 in vivo[1]. Liquiritin acts as an antioxidant and has neuroprotective, anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory activity[2].
