6''-O-Malonylgenistin possesses a hepatoprotective activity.The isoflavone concentration in soybean samples was analyzed on a C 18 reverse-phase column using a two-step gradient solvent system.

Artanin displays promising inhibition against both MSSA and MRSA with minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 8-64 ug/ml, but very weak against Gram-negative pathogen and yeast with MICs of 256 to ≥1024 ug/ml.

WEHL-04 is an intermediate used to prepare (isoquinolinylsulfonyl)benzoic acids as inhibitors of type 5 71-β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase AKR1C3. It is also used in the synthesis of 2-aminooctahydrocyclopentalene-3a-carboxamides as potent CCR2 antagonists.
