Abstract

Isoflavones, flavanones and dihydroflavonols all give similar UV spectra as a result of their having little or no conjugation between the A- and B-rings. They are all readily distinguished from flavones and flavonols by their UV spectra, which typically exhibit an intense Band II absorption with only a shoulder or low intensity peak representing Band I.
