Common NameFlavan-3-ol
DescriptionEpicatechin 3-O-(4-methylgallate), also known as 3-O-(4-methylgalloyl)epicatechin, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as catechin gallates. These are organic compounds containing a gallate moiety glycosidically linked to a catechin. Epicatechin 3-O-(4-methylgallate) is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Outside of the human body, Epicatechin 3-O-(4-methylgallate) has been detected, but not quantified in, pomegranates. Flavan-3-ol is found in Camellia sinensis var. assamica . This could make epicatechin 3-O-(4-methylgallate) a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods.
