rutin
Also known as 3-Rhamnoglucosylquercetin, 3-Rutinosyl quercetin, 3,3',4',5,7-Pentahydroxyflavone-3-rutinoside, Rutinoside, quercetin 3beta-, Glucopyranoside, quercetin-3 6-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-,beta-D, Quercetin 3-O-beta-D-rutinoside, Eldrin, Tanrutin
Rutin (rutoside, quercetin-3-O-rutinoside or sophorin) is the glycoside combining the flavonol quercetin and the disaccharide rutinose (α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→6)-β-D-glucopyranose). It is a flavonoid glycoside found in a wide variety of plants, including citrus.

Rutin (rutoside, quercetin-3-O-rutinoside or sophorin) is the glycoside combining the flavonol quercetin and the disaccharide rutinose (α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→6)-β-D-glucopyranose). It is a flavonoid glycoside found in a wide variety of plants, including citrus.
== Occurrences == Rutin is one of the phenolic compounds found in the plant species Carpobrotus edulis. Its name comes from the name of Ruta graveolens, a plant that also contains rutin. Various citrus fruit peels contain 32 to 49 mg per g of flavonoids expressed as rutin equivalents. Citrus leaves contain rutin at concentrations of 11 mg per g in orange trees and 7 mg per g in lime trees. In 2021, Samoan researchers identified rutin in the native plant matalafi (Psychotria insularum).
