Galloylated catechins and stilbene diglucosides in Vitis vinifera cell suspension cultures

Phytochemistry. 2002 Aug;60(8):795-8. doi: 10.1016/s0031-9422(02)00149-8.

Abstract

Suspension cultures of Vitis vinifera were found to produce catechins and stilbenes. When cells were grown in a medium inducing polyphenol synthesis, (-)-epicatechin-3-O-gallate, dimeric procyanidin B-2 3'-O-gallate and two resveratrol diglucosides were isolated, together with a new natural compound that was identified as cis-resveratrol-3,4'-O-beta-diglucoside by spectroscopical methods.
