Ellagitannins (also ellagitannins ) are a group of polyphenols and tannins from plants . The constituent ellagic acid was named by Henri Braconnot based on gallic acid , which occurs frequently in plant galls, by reversing the word bile .

properties

Ellagitannins are formed by the oxidative linkage of gallic acids in 1,2,3,4,6-pentagallylglucose . The gallic acids form CC bonds with one another, in contrast to the gallotannins , in which the bond between the gallic acids is depsidic . Another contrast to gallotannins are the macrocycles in ellagitannins, which contain hexahydroxydiphenyl groups , gallyl groups, or sanguisorbyl groups.

Biodegradation of the ellagitannins

The ellagitannins are biosynthesized via 1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloyl-beta-D-glucopyranose by a laccase- like phenol oxidase to tellimagrandin II , followed by further oxidation by another phenol oxidase to cornusiin E ( a dimeric ellagitannin). Ellagitannins are broken down into urolithines by the human intestinal flora .

Examples

More than 1000 ellagitannins have been described. Examples of ellagitannins are Castalagin , Castalin , Casuarictin , Casuarinin , Castanopsinine A to H, Excoecarianin , Grandinin , Pterocarinine A and B, Rhoipteleanine A to G, Roburin A , Tellimagrandin II , Terflavin B , punicalagin , Punicalin , Punigluconin , Alnusiin , Alnusnin A , Alnusnin B , Cercidinin A , Cercidinin B , Chebulagic Acid , Chebulinic Acid , Corilagin , Geraniine , Isoterchebine , Nobotanine B, C, E, G, H, I, J, and K, Roxbin B , Sanguiine H-2, H-3 and H-6, Stachyurin , Terchebin , vascalagin and vescalin . They are mainly used in dicotyledonous angiosperms before, as in Myrtales , which include the pomegranate counts.

analysis

Ellagitannins can be separated by chromatography . For analysis, the ester bonds are hydrolyzed with trifluoroacetic acid in aqueous methanol . The ester bonds can also be cleaved by ellagitannin acyl hydrolase (synonym ellagitannase ). The hexahydroxydiphenylic acid released in this way forms the lactone ellagic acid and the released sanguisorbic acid the dilactone sanguisorbic acid dilactone , while gallic acid is retained.

use

Ellagitannins have anti-inflammatory effects and are being studied for neuroprotection , the prevention of infectious diseases , cancer , inflammatory bowel diseases and cardiovascular diseases .

The ellagitannins Castalagin and vascalagin from the English oak (Ellagitanninmassenanteil 4.84%) and the Traubeneiche (Ellagitanninmassenanteil 3.44%) diffuse in the production of wine in the barrel extension from the wood of the barrel in the wine and belong to the phenols in the wine . The ellagitannins inhibit malolactic fermentation in wine . With the oxidation of the ellagitannins, the astringency decreases.
