Biochanin A is a natural isoflavone with diverse biological actions, most notably as a phytoestrogen. It can affect hormone levels by inhibiting 5α-reductase and 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase or altering aromatase (CYP19A1) activity.1,2 Also known as 4’-methyl genistein, biochanin A can be metabolized in vivo to genistein (Item No. 10005167), another phytoestrogen with diverse effects.3 Biochanin A also intersects with signaling through peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs), as it activates PPARγ (EC50 = 19 μM) and has also been shown to activate a PPARα promoter.4 Moreover, it increases the expression of the PPARγ coactivator PGC-1α, promoting mitochondrial biogenesis.5 Biochanin A also inhibits fatty acid amide hydrolase (IC50 = 2.4 μM) and acts as an agonist of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (EC50 = 0.25 μM).6,7 | [Chemical Properties]

phytoestrogen | [Definition]
ChEBI: Biochanin A is a member of the class of 7-hydroxyisoflavones that is 7-hydroxyisoflavone which is substituted by an additional hydroxy group at position 5 and a methoxy group at position 4'. A phytoestrogen, it has putative benefits in dietary cancer prophylaxis. It has a role as a phytoestrogen, a plant metabolite, an EC 3.5.1.99 (fatty acid amide hydrolase) inhibitor, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor and an antineoplastic agent. It is a member of 7-hydroxyisoflavones and a member of 4'-methoxyisoflavones. It is a conjugate acid of a biochanin A(1-). | [General Description]
Biochanin A (BCA) is synthesized in vitro from phloroglucinol. A series of steps involving Friedel?Crafts reaction results in an intermediate product 1-(2,4,6-trihydroxyphenyl)-2-(4 methoxyphenyl) ethanone, which post cyclization leads to BCA. It is catabolized to isoflavone genistein post ingestion. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Biochanin A is an isoflavone phytoestrogen found in red clover (Trifolium pratense) that is a selective agonist at ER-β estrogen receptors, and may have chemopreventive efficacy against breast cancer. In line with its low activity at ER-α estrogen receptors, it is essentially devoid of uterotrophic activity. Biochanin A is also a ligand for the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). It reduces arterial resistance and enhances microcirculation perhaps via effects on potassium and/or calcium ion channels. Induction of sulfotransferases for xenobiotic detoxification has been proposed as a mechanism of its cancer preventive effects. | [Synthesis]
The general procedure for the synthesis of 5,7-dihydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-4H-benzopyran-4-one from 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-(2,4,6-trihydroxyphenyl)ethanone and N,N-dimethylformamide was carried out as follows: ethyl ether boron trifluoride (3 mL, 24 mmol) was added dropwise to 3 mL anhydrous N,N-dimethylformamide containing 8 mmol of 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-(2,4,6-trihydroxyphenyl)ethanone (2,4,6-trihydroxyphenyl)acetonide, under the conditions of cooling in ice bath and vigorous stirring. 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-(2,4,6-trihydroxyphenyl)ethanone to 3 mL of anhydrous N,N-dimethylformamide. After stopping the cooling, trichlorophosphorus (0.9 mL, 9.6 mmol) was added slowly and dropwise. After all components were mixed well, the reaction mixture was stirred at 60-70°C for 2 hours. After completion of the reaction, the mixture was poured into acidified water and the precipitate was filtered out. The crude product was purified by column chromatography using hexane and ethyl acetate (8:2, v/v) as eluents to afford the target compound 5,7-dihydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-4H-benzopyran-4-one (a) in 61% yield with a melting point of 212-214 °C.
