Ombuin is an O-methylated flavonol, a type of flavonoid. It is the 4',7-O-methyl derivative of quercetin.

Ombuin can be found in species of the genus Erythroxylum . It can also be synthesized. [1] Ombuin 3-sulfate can be isolated from Flaveria chlorifolia . [2]

Glycosides

Ombuin-3-rutinoside can be isolated from Phytolacca dioica , the ombu tree. [3] Ombuin-3-O-rhamnosylglucoside can be found in Erythroxylum rufum . [4]
