A new epicatechin oxidation product with a 3,6-dihydro-6-oxo-2H-pyran-2-carboxylic acid moiety was isolated from a commercially available post-fermented tea that is produced by microbial fermentation of green tea. The structure of this product was determined by spectroscopic methods. A production mechanism that includes the oxygenative cleavage of the catechol B-ring of (−)−epicatechin is proposed...
To clarify the oxidation mechanism of green tea catechins during tea fermentation, pure catechins were oxidized with a catechin-free homogenate of tea leaf. Oxidation of a mixture of (-)-epicatechin and (-)-epigallocatechin yielded a new metabolite, named dehydrotheaflavin, produced by the oxidation of a benzotropolone moiety of the black tea pigment theaflavin. Similar oxidation of a mixture of (-)-epicatechin...
