Although a number of flavan-3-ols of the IS configuration are known, their distribution is quite restricted in comparison with the above compounds. Both eAZ/-epiafzelechin and eA epicatechin are found in several species of the Palmae (73). Afzelia xylocarpa and Colophospermum mopane contain eA2/-fisetinidol, and e epifisetinidol is also present in the latter species (66, 82, 323). The flavan-3-ols readily undergo epimerization through inversion of configuration at C-2, making precautions necessary in their isolation. The above compounds clearly are not artifacts, however. [Pg.592]

The profisetinidins have been studied intensively by Roux s school at The University of the Orange Free State, Bloemfontein, South Africa. The heartwoods of Acacia mearnsii and Colophospermum mopane contain a series of 2R isomers and these compounds have all been synthesized (Tables 7.6.9 and 7.6.10). The commercially important quebracho tannins from Schinopsis and Rhus contain a series of 2S isomers and these compounds have also been synthesized recently. Fifteen dimers, nine trimers, and nine tetramers have now been thoroughly de-... [Pg.613]
