In chemical terms a perhaps unexpected but biosynthetically interesting variant of the hexahydroxydiphenoyl ester group first noted by Schmidt is its dehydro-derivative (22). It was identified by Schmidt as a structural component of brevilagin 1 and 2, polyphenols from the fruit pods of Caesalpinia brevifolia (133, 134). Subsequent work has shown the ester to be present in the structure of other plant polyphenols, notably geraniin (51) in plants of the Geraniaceae (Thble 7.2.9).

The patterns of further metabolism of 15, which have been discerned in the leaves of plants (46), are broadly divisible into at least three groups, labelled A, B, and C (Fig. 7.2.4). Attention is directed in this review to these three major patterns but it should be noted that this scheme probably does not yet represent an all-embracing classification of gallic acid metabolism in higher plants. We previously noted those plant species that provided extracts of commercial importance in history whereas several points of contact between the phenolic metabolites of these particular plants and Fig. 7.2.4 are self-evident (vide infra) others - notably Terminalia chebula, Caesalpinia coriaria, and C. brevifolia - quite clearly produce a range of phenolic metabolites which, on the basis of the available evidence.
