FLAVOKAWAINC Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Pale yellow powder, soluble in organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, and DMSO, derived from the rhizome of Piper methysticum Forst.

Uses

Flavokawain C?is a?chalcone found in the kava plant. Studies showed that?Flavokawain C can inhibit cell cycle and promote apoptosis in HCT 116 cells. In addition, natural chalcones have been?implicated as lead compounds for developing dual inhibitors against?Histone deacetylase enzymes (HDACs) and NF-κB. Flavokawain C is a related compound Flavokawain A (F371020).

Definition

ChEBI: Flavokawain C is a member of chalcones.
