Noreugenin
What is Noreugenin?
Noreugenin (CAS 1013-69-0), also known as 5,7-Dihydroxy-2-methylchromone, is a naturally occurring chromone derivative used as a reference compound and biochemical tool in pharmaceutical and life sciences research.
Where is Noreugenin used?
- Pharmaceutical research: analytical reference standard for method validation and purity testing
- Biotechnology: substrate or inhibitor probe in enzyme assay development
- Synthetic chemistry: building block for flavonoid and chromone analogues
- Its defined hydroxylation pattern makes it a target structure for enzyme inhibition studies and bioactivity screening.
Good to know: Intended for laboratory use rather than bulk commodity channels. Certificate of analysis documentation confirms identity, purity, and spectral data.
Commercial specifications
- High purity grades suited to research applications
- Research-scale quantities
