Isoflavans

Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-006186

A subclass of flavonoids characterized by a C6-C3-C6 carbon skeleton where the B-ring is attached at the C3 position of the C-ring, rather than the C2 position as in flavans. The C-ring is a dihydropyran ring, saturated at the C2 and C3 positions. The parent compound is 3-phenylchroman.
