The acylation of procyanidin B4 with a saturated fatty acid chloride containing 18 carbon atoms was studied in order to obtain procyanidin B4 3-O-di-stearic acid conjugate. This compound was structurally characterised by mass spectrometry and 1D and 2D NMR techniques. Derivatization of malvidin-3-glucoside using stearoyl chloride in acetonitrile was also performed yielding mono-, di- and tri-stearic ester derivatives. The novel derivatives obtained revealed significant antioxidant activity, although lower than the respective precursors. However, the chemical modification of anthocyanins and procyanidins (water soluble pigments) to more lipophilic compounds has the advantage of increased bioavailability in biological matrices, and to potentiate their application in food matrices and cosmetic products.

Stereoselective synthesis of catechin and epicatechin dimers under intermolecular condensation of equimolar amount of catechin derivatives catalyzed by Yb(OTf)3. The coupled products were successfully converted to procyanidins B1, B2, B3, and B4, respectively. Procyanidins B1, B2, B3, and B4 could be used as standard compounds for identifying the polyphenols in natural source.
Synthetic studies of proanthocyanidins. Part 4. The synthesis of procyanidin B1 and B4: TMSOTf-catalyzed cyclization of catechin and epicatechin condensation

Highly stereoselective synthesis of 3,4-trans series of (+)-catechin and (-)-epicatechin dimers under intramolecular condensation is described. Intramolecular condensation achieved an equimolar amount of coupling with 3,4-trans stereoselectivity and we succeeded in the synthesis of two 3,4-trans natural procyanidins, procyanidin-B1 and B4.
