Product Description
(-)-Butin is the S enantiomer of Butin. Butin is a major bioactive flavonoid isolated from the heartwood of Dalbergia Dalbergia and has strong antioxidant, antiplatelet and anti-inflammatory activities.
(-)-Butin (CAS# 492-14-8) is the S enantiomer of Butin, a major biologically active flavonoid isolated from the heartwood of Dalbergia odorifera. It has the molecular formula C15H12O5 and a molecular weight of 272.25. (-)-Butin exhibits strong antioxidant, antiplatelet, and anti-inflammatory activities. The compound protects cells against H2O2-induced apoptosis, oxidative DNA damage, and oxidative mitochondrial dysfunction. It attenuates oxidative stress by activating Nrf2-mediated MnSOD induction via the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
(-)-Butin targets the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, which activates Nrf2-mediated MnSOD induction. As a flavonoid, it exhibits antioxidant activity by scavenging free radicals and protecting against oxidative stress. The compound has antiplatelet activity, preventing platelet aggregation. Its anti-inflammatory activity involves modulation of inflammatory pathways. The compound's multiple targets make it valuable for cardiovascular and oxidative stress research.
ln Vitro
(-)-Butin protects cells against H2O2-induced apoptosis, oxidative DNA damage, and oxidative mitochondrial dysfunction in vitro. The compound attenuates oxidative stress by activating Nrf2-mediated MnSOD induction via the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. It exhibits strong antioxidant, antiplatelet, and anti-inflammatory activities. These in vitro findings support its potential applications in cardiovascular research, oxidative stress research, and anti-inflammatory research.
ln Vivo
In vivo studies of (-)-Butin are limited as the compound is primarily used as a research chemical. Its strong antioxidant, antiplatelet, and anti-inflammatory activities suggest potential for in vivo evaluation in models of cardiovascular disease, oxidative stress, and inflammation. However, comprehensive in vivo pharmacological studies specifically targeting (-)-Butin are not well documented. The compound is intended for research use only and is not for human therapeutic use.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro antioxidant assays for (-)-Butin typically involve testing its ability to protect cells against H2O2-induced oxidative damage. Cells are treated with varying concentrations of the compound and exposed to H2O2; cell viability, DNA damage, and mitochondrial function are assessed. Nrf2 activation is measured by assessing MnSOD induction via the PI3K/Akt pathway. Antiplatelet activity is assessed using platelet aggregation assays. The compound's purity and identity are confirmed using analytical chemistry methods.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for (-)-Butin involve culturing cells to evaluate its antioxidant and cytoprotective effects. Cells are treated with varying concentrations of the compound and exposed to H2O2 to induce oxidative stress. Cell viability is assessed using MTT or similar colorimetric assays. Oxidative DNA damage is assessed using comet assays. Mitochondrial dysfunction is assessed by measuring mitochondrial membrane potential. Nrf2 activation and MnSOD induction are measured by Western blotting. All experiments are performed with appropriate controls.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments for (-)-Butin would be conducted to evaluate its antioxidant, antiplatelet, and anti-inflammatory activities. For antioxidant studies, animals would be administered the compound and markers of oxidative stress measured. For antiplatelet studies, platelet aggregation would be assessed ex vivo. For anti-inflammatory studies, animals with induced inflammation would be treated and inflammatory markers measured. Parameters assessed would include oxidative stress markers, platelet aggregation, and tissue histopathology. Control groups receiving vehicle alone would be included for comparison.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
The pharmacokinetic properties of (-)-Butin reflect its nature as a flavonoid. It has a molecular weight of 272.25 and the molecular formula C15H12O5. As a flavonoid, it would be absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract and metabolized through standard xenobiotic pathways in the liver. Complete pharmacokinetic profiling including half-life, clearance, volume of distribution, and bioavailability would require further systematic studies using appropriate analytical methods such as high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The toxicity profile of (-)-Butin has been evaluated in the context of its use as a research chemical. As a naturally occurring flavonoid from Dalbergia odorifera, it is expected to have a favorable safety profile at research concentrations. Proper handling procedures including use of personal protective equipment are recommended when working with pure compound. The compound is not approved for human therapeutic use and is intended for research purposes only. Long-term toxicity studies would be needed to fully establish its safety profile.

Additional Infomation
Butin is a trihydroxyflavanone with its three hydroxyl substituents located at the 3', 4', and 7 positions. It is found in black locust (Acacia mearnsii), worm-resistant aster (Vernonia anthelmintica), and rosewood (Dalbergia odorifera), and has a protective effect against oxidative stress-induced mitochondrial dysfunction. It possesses antioxidant, protective, and metabolic functions. Butin is a trihydroxyflavanone, belonging to the 4'-hydroxyflavanone class of compounds. Butin has also been reported to be found in Spatholobus suberectus, Bolusanthus speciosus, and other organisms with relevant data.

  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
