Isoquercetin, isoquercitrin or isotrifoliin [1] is a flavonoid, a type of chemical compound. It is the 3-O-glucoside of quercetin. Isoquercitrin can be isolated from various plant species including Mangifera indica (mango) [2] and Rheum nobile (the Noble rhubarb). It is also present in the leaves of Annona squamosa , Camellia sinensis (tea). [3] [4] and Vestia foetida [5]
The lambda-max for isoquercetin is 254.8 and 352.6 nm.
Isoquercetin is presently being investigated for prevention of thromboembolism in selected cancer patients [6] and as an anti-fatigue agent in kidney cancer patients treated with sunitinib. [7]
There is a single case report of its use in the successful treatment of prurigo nodularis, a difficult to treat pruritic eruption of the skin. [8]
However it belongs to the PAINS (Pan-assay interference compounds) categories of chemicals. [9]
