A seco-catechin cyclization approach to 4→6-linked catechin dimers.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A viable route has been developed for the selective synthesis of the 4→6-linked catechin dimers, scarcely accessible from Nature and/or through synthesis. An acyclic nucleophilic catechin precursor (seco-catechin) was used for the regioselective union with an electrophilic catechin unit, and subsequent pyran cyclization gave the desired 4→6-linked dimers, i.e., procyanidin B6 and catechin-(4α→6)-gallocatechin.

The sensitivity and specificity of the inhibition of β-glucosidase (Amygdalae dulces) by (+ )-catechin, an oxidized (+)-catechin solution, three dimeric procyanidins, and five (+)-catechin dimers obtained by enzymatic oxidation were evaluated by using a chromatographic method. All the polyphenols tested presented a significant inhibitory effect. Non-competitive inhibition was observed for the o...

متن کاملRegioselective Synthesis of Procyanidin B6, A 4-6-Condensed (+)-Catechin Dimer, by Intramolecular Condensation.
Proanthocyanidins, also known as condensed tannins or oligomeric flavonoids, are found in many edible plants and exhibit interesting biological activities. Herein, we report a new, simple method for the stereoselective synthesis of procyanidin B6, a (+)-catechin-(4-6)-(+)-catechin dimer, by Lewis acid-catalyzed intramolecular condensation. The 5-O-t-butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS) group of 5,7,3'4'-...
متن کاملDimerization, ROS formation, and biological activity of o-methoxyphenols.
o-Methoxyphenols are antioxidants widely used in the cosmetic and food industries. Dimers from 1, 2, or 3 were synthesized and their radical-scavenging and biological activities were compared with those of the original or other phenols. Radical-scavenging was evaluated from a kinetic induction period method (IPM). To simulate biomimetic thiolcooxidation with antioxidants, the behavior of mixtur...

The phenols of Paul's Scarlet rose stems and stem-derived cell cultures have been analyzed using C(18)-reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography.Rose stems were found to contain gallic acid, (+)catechin, (-)epicatechin, the dimers (-)epicatechin-(+)catechin and (+)catechin-(+)catechin, a polymeric procyanidin, ferulic acid, and several gallotannins. In contrast, a cell suspension of...
