Morin is a chemical compound. It is a yellow color substance that can be isolated from Maclura pomifera (Osage orange), Maclura tinctoria (old fustic) and from leaves of Psidium guajava (common guava).^[1] In a preclinical in vitro study, morin was found to be a weak inhibitor of fatty acid synthase with an IC₅₀ of 2.33 μM.^[2]

Morin can be used to test for the presence of aluminium or tin in a solution, since it forms characteristically fluorescent coordination complexes with them.
