Overview
The discovery of isoflavonoid was in 1842, when Reinsch and Hlasiwetz obtained ononin from the roots of spiny restharrow (Ononis spinosa L.)[1]. Its structure was later determined by Baker et al. as Formononetin 7-O-glucoside (1933). Since then, most isoflavonoids have been found in Fabaceae (bean family).
First isoflavonoid found in non-bean family was iridin from the rhizomes of Iris florentina (Iridaceae)[2]. The first structural identification was Prunetin from Prunus species in 1910 by Finnemore. Major isoflavonoids in iris are isoflavones and their O-glycosides. In iris, isoflavonoids are produced only in the rhizomes except for a trace of coumaranochromones in leaves [3].
