Alphitonin is a flavonoid that has been found in L. leptolepis wood. It is also a metabolic intermediate that is formed during the catabolism of quercetin by the human gut bacteria E. ramulus.

Alphitonin is a flavonoid and is also a metabolic intermediate that is formed during the catabolism of Quercetin (HY-18085) by the human gut bacteria E. ramulus.

ChEBI: Alphitonin is a hydroxyaurone that is aurone substituted by hydroxy groups at positions 2, 4, 6, 3' and 4' respectively. It has been isolated from Alphitonia excelsa. It has a role as a plant metabolite. It is functionally related to an aurone.
