Pectolinarigenin is a dimethoxyflavone that is the 6,4-dimethyl ether derivative of scutellarein. It has a role as a plant metabolite. It is a dimethoxyflavone and a dihydroxyflavone. It is functionally related to a scutellarein. Pectolinarigenin is a natural product found in Eupatorium cannabinum, Chromolaena odorata, and other organisms with data available. A dimethoxyflavone that is the 6,4-dimethyl ether derivative of scutellarein. Pectolinarigenin, also known as 5,7-dihydroxy-4,6-dimethoxyflavone or 4-methylcapillarisin, is a member of the class of compounds known as 6-o-methylated flavonoids. 6-o-methylated flavonoids are flavonoids with methoxy groups attached to the C6 atom of the flavonoid backbone. Thus, pectolinarigenin is considered to be a flavonoid lipid molecule. Pectolinarigenin is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Pectolinarigenin can be found in sunflower and tarragon, which makes pectolinarigenin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Pectolinarigenin is a Cirsium isolate with anti-inflammatory activity and belongs to the flavones . Pectolinarigenin is a dual inhibitor of COX-2/5-LOX. Anti-inflammatory activity[1]. Pectolinarigenin has potent inhibitory activities on melanogenesis[2]. Pectolinarigenin is a dual inhibitor of COX-2/5-LOX. Anti-inflammatory activity[1].
