The phenolic compound phloridzin (phloretin 2′-O-glucoside, phlorizin, phlorrhizin, phlorhizin or phlorizoside) is a prominent member of the chemical class of dihydrochalcones, which are phenylpropanoids. The apple tree (Malus sp.) accumulates high amounts of phloridzin, whereas few other species contain this compound only in low amounts. Additionally, Malus sp. show a species- and tissue-specific...
In contrast to the ubiquitously present flavonoids, dihydrochalcones seem to be restricted to approx. 30 plant families. In apple (Malus domestica Borkh.), the dihydrochalcone phloridzin (phloretin 2′-O-glucoside) is dominant representing more than 90% of the soluble phenolics in the leaves. Dihydrochalcones are biochemically related to flavonoids, but the knowledge of their biosynthesis is still...
