General description
6-Hydroxyflavanone is a flavonoid. Its biotransformation by Aspergillus niger strains have been described. Crystal structure of S and R enantiomers of 6-hydroxyflavanone has been reported to have four crystallographic sites of the unit cell in an approximate 3:1/1:3 ratio. It was identified as a metabolite of flavnone on incubation with rat liver microsomes by positive ion electrospray LC/MS analysis.
Application
6-Hydroxyflavanone (6-HF) has been used for the enantiomeric separation of flavonoids using polysaccharide-based chiral stationary phases by nano-liquid chromatography (nano-LC). Racemic 6-HF may be used in the synthesis of 6-propionoxy-flavanone (6-PF). 6-HF may be employed as synthetic flavone to investigate the mechanism of tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) induced cytotoxic and apoptotic effects in HeLa cancer cells.

CYP2A6 is a major hepatic member of the cytochrome P450 family in humans. Much variation in CYP2A6 levels and activity can be attributed to genetic polymorphisms of this gene. CYP2A6*25 comprises an amino acid substitution, F118L. To clarify the effect
