Abstract

Glycitein is one of the soy isoflavones which have attracted considerable interest in recent years due to their possible beneficial effects on human health. However, glycitein has been much less studied than other members of this family due to the lack of good methods for its synthesis. Herein we report a short high yielding synthesis of a multiply 13C-labelled glycitein derivative,[2, 3, 4-13C3] glycitein, which has been employed as an internal ...
