  • Applications

    Chemical name: 4',7-Dihydroxy-3,4-dihydroisoflavone (CAS 94105-90-5) is a dihydroisoflavone derivative primarily used as an intermediate for the synthesis of flavonoid compounds in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research; it is also evaluated as an antioxidant and may function as a cosmetic/personal care ingredient; in the polymers/plastics and coatings sectors it can be considered as an antioxidant additive or stabilizer in exploratory formulations; in analytical chemistry it is commonly used as a reference standard for HPLC/LC-MS methods related to isoflavones; and in plant science and agricultural research it serves as a precursor for synthesizing phytoestrogen analogs for biological studies.
