Isovitexin (homovitexin orsaponaretin) is aflavone, namely theapigenin-6-C-glucoside. In this case, the prefix 'iso' does not imply anisoflavonoid (the position of the B-ring on the C-ring), but the position of the glucoside on the flavone, in comparison tovitexin.
It can be found in thepassion flower,Cannabis,oat, and theaçaí palm.[citation needed]
Saponarin is the isovitexin-7-O-glucoside.
