Isoflavonoids
Compounds marked * have one or more side-attachements derived by cyclisation of a prenyl group or groups. As the chemical description of these cyclic side-attachments is complicated, please enquire if more details are needed. Compounds in the following list are subdivided to show the particular isoflavonoid group to which they belong. Please note that the ring numbering system is not the same for all isoflavonoids. As a guide, the numbering of isoflavones, isoflavanones and isoflavans follows the well-established flavone convention, with the ring A carbons being numbered 5 to 8, and the ring B carbons numbered 2′ to 6′ . Carbons C-7 and C-4′ are the positions most often substituted. In pterocarpans and coumestans, carbon atoms in the ring equivalent to “A” of isoflavones are numbered 1 to 4 (clockwise, starting at bottom). Carbons in the ring equivalent to “B” of isoflavones are numbered 7 – 10 (clockwise, starting at top). In rotenoids, the C-7 of isoflavones becomes C-9 (anti-clockwise numbering from top), whilst C-4′ of isoflavones becomes C-3 (anti-clockwise numbering from bottom). For desoxybenzoins and alpha-methyldesoxybenzoins, the ring numbering system follows that widely used for the chalcone/dihydrochalcone group of flavonoids.

Phytoalexins and Other Antimicrobials
The isoflavonoids display a wide range of biological properties. Some, for example the pterocarpan maackiain, have anti-tumour properties, or function as anti-oxidants (e.g. the isoflavones desmethylglycitein and genistein). A few, like coumestrol and miroestrol are powerful phytoestrogens in their own right. Others, notably daidzein, formononetin, genistein and biochanin A are pro-estrogens capable of being converted to more active substances (such as equol) by intestinal microflora. Some of the rotenoids, especially rotenone and tephrosin, are potent insecticides and fish poisons. Research has also shown that certain isoflavonoids are strongly anti-microbial (especially antifungal), acting as defensive compounds, either pre-formed (e.g. the isoflavones luteone and wighteone) or post-infectional (various pterocarpans/isoflavans), in the tissues of many leguminous plants. These latter compounds are termed phytoalexins because in certain plants their formation only occurs as a defense response, a rough analogy being the production of antibodies by humans and other animals. Plantech (U.K.) is able to offer the widest available range of plant phytoalexins for analytical use and small scale biological testing. Our main products are listed below.
