Rhamnetin is a chemical compound from the group of flavonoids or flavonols and is isomeric to isorhamnetin .

Occurrence

Indian patchouli ( Pogostemon cablin )

Rhamnetin occurs naturally in Indian patchouli and as the main pigment in buckthorn berries (Latin rhamnus , hence the name) and a few other plants. It is produced by the hydrolysis of xanthorhamnine . It was first examined by Liebermann, Hörmann and Josef Herzig in the 1880s .

Extraction and presentation

Rhamnetin can be produced artificially by enzymatic means using O- methyltransferase-7.

properties

Rhamnetin is a light yellow odorless powder. It is a monomethyl ether of quercetin .

use

Rhamnetin is used in paper finishing as part of the developer layer in pressure-sensitive copier papers.
