Enzymatic oxidation of ellagitannin and a new ellagitannin metabolite from Camellia japonica leaves
Abstract Polyphenols in the leaves of Camellia japonica L. at different stages of growth were analyzed by HPLC. Pedunculagin [2,3; 4,6-bis-( S )-hexahydroxydiphenoyl- d -glucose] was the major polyphenol in the youngest leaves. The levels of this compound and (+)-catechin decreased as the leaves matured.
