Formononetin is an O-methylated isoflavone. It is found in a number of plants and herbs like the red clover^[1].

Metabolism

The enzyme 4'-methoxyisoflavone 2'-hydroxylase uses formononetin, NADPH, H⁺, and O₂ to produce 2'-hydroxyformononetin, NADP⁺ and H₂O.

The enzyme Isoflavone 3'-hydroxylase uses formononetin, NADPH, H⁺, and O₂ to produce calycosin (3'-hydroxyformononetin), NADP⁺ and H₂O.

Ononin is the 7-O-glucoside of formononetin.
