Dihydrochalcone (DHC) is the organic compound with the formula C₆H₅C(O)(CH₂)₂C₆H₅. It is the reduced derivative of chalcone (C₆H₅C(O)(CH)₂C₆H₅). It is a white solid that is soluble in many organic solvents. Dihydrochalcone per se is often minor significance, but some derivatives occur in nature and have attracted attention as drugs.^[1]

Natural dihydrochalcones

• Aspalathin, a C-linked dihydrochalcone glucoside found in rooibos, a common herbal tea
• Naringin dihydrochalcone, an artificial sweetener derived from naringin
• Neohesperidin dihydrochalcone, an artificial sweetener derived from citrus
• Nothofagin, a C-linked phloretin glucoside found in rooibos
• Phloretin
• Isosalipurpurin

Dihydrochalcones (3′,5′-dihydroxy-2′,4′,6′-trimethoxydihydrochalcone (methyl linderone) and 2′-hydroxy-3′,4′,5′,6′-tetramethoxydihydrochalcone (dihydrokanakugiol) can be found in twigs of Lindera lucida.^[2]
