Secondary Plant Substances

Plants produce thousands of biologically active compounds that play no direct role in their basic growth or development, yet are among the most scientifically valuable molecules in the natural world. Our Secondary Plant Substances class offers an extensive collection of over 600 purified phytochemicals, sourced from Carl Roth and supplied in precise quantities for research, analytical, and pharmaceutical applications.

See What We Offer in the Secondary Plant Substances Line

Our range spans the major classes of secondary plant metabolites, with compounds available in research-ready quantities from milligram to gram scale:

• Flavones and Dimethoxyflavones such as 5,2-Dimethoxyflavone and 3,6-Dimethoxyflavone, widely applied for their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties.
• Chalcones, including 3,2-Dihydroxychalcone, key intermediates in flavonoid biosynthesis and targets in drug discovery research.
• Lignans such as Syringaresinol Diglucoside, a naturally occurring lignan glucoside investigated for cardiovascular and antioxidant activity.
• Coumarins including 6-Hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin, used in fluorescence studies, enzyme research, and pharmaceutical synthesis.
• Hydroquinones such as 2,3-Dimethoxy-5-methyl-1,4-hydroquinone, found in various plant species and studied for their biological and chemical reactivity.

Applications Across Research Areas

Secondary plant substances are among the most studied compound classes in modern science. Our phytochemical range supports a broad spectrum of research and analytical applications, including:
