In this study, uncharacterized substances were detected in the young leaves, which are not observed in the mature leaves. Preliminary HPLC analyses indicated that the substances had dehydro-HHDP (DHHDP) ester groups; however, the esters were unstable and decomposed during extraction. Therefore, the compounds were isolated as their stable phenazine derivatives by extracting the young leaves with acidic aqueous EtOH containing o-phenylenediamine. The structures of the phenazine derivatives indicated that the unstable metabolites of the young leaves were 3,24-DHHDP esters of the abovementioned triterpenes. Extraction of the young leaves with 80% acetonitrile containing reducing agents, ascorbic acid or dithiothreitol afforded the corresponding HHDP esters. Furthermore, heating of the young leaves in 80% acetonitrile also yielded the same HHDP esters as the reduction products. The results suggested that the HHDP esters are reductively produced from DHHDP esters in the young leaves. In addition, the structures of five previously reported triterpene HHDP esters were revised. Keywords: Castanopsis sieboldii; ellagitannin; dehydrohexahydroxydiphenoyl; hexahydroxydiphenoyl; triterpene 1. Introduction Ellagitannins are a group of hydrolyzable tannins having hexahydroxydiphenoyl (HHDP) ester moieties and related acyl groups [1–3]. The HHDP group is a dimer of the galloyl group, and enzymatic conversion of gallotannins to ellagitannins has been reported [4–6]; however, the details of the biosynthetic mechanisms are still ambiguous. In addition, there is no chemical or biological evidence for the production mechanism of other ellagitannin acyl groups, such as dehydro-HHDP (DHHDP) and chebuloyl [1]. To clarify the biogenetical relationship between ellagitannin acyl groups, the chemical reactivity of the acyl groups and change of tannin composition during leaf growth were examined in our laboratory. Previously, it was demonstrated that the major ellagitannin in the leaves of Camellia japonica was oxidatively degraded as the leaves matured, and the chemical mechanism was proposed [7]. In this study, change of tannin composition in the leaves of Castanopsis sieboldii (syn. C. cuspidata var. sieboldii, Fagaceae) was examined. C. sieboldii is an evergreen broadleaf tree widely distributed in western Japan.

Journal of Ecology and Environment (2019) 43:44 Journal of Ecology https://doi.org/10.1186/s41610-019-0142-3 and Environment RESEARCH Open Access Characteristics of vegetation succession on the Pinus thunbergii forests in warm temperate regions, Jeju Island, South Korea Yongsik Hong1, Euijoo Kim2, Eungpill Lee2, Seungyeon Lee2, Kyutae Cho2, Youngkeun Lee3, Sanghoon Chung3, Heonmo Jeong4 and Younghan You1* Abstract Background: To investigate the trends of succession occurring at the Pinus thunbergii forests on the lowlands of Jeju Island, we quantified the species compositions and the importance values by vegetation layers of Braun- Blanquet method on the Pinus thunbergii forests. We used multivariate analysis technique to know the correlations between the vegetation group types and the location environmental factors; we used the location environment factors such as altitudes above sea level, tidal winds (distance from the coast), annual average temperatures, and forest gaps to know the vegetation distribution patterns. Results: According to the results on the lowland of Jeju Island, the understory vegetation of the lowland Pinus thunbergii forests was dominated by tall evergreen broad-leaved trees such as Machilus thunbergii, Neolitsea sericea, and Cinnamomum japonicum showing a vegetation group structure of the mid-succession, and the distribution patterns of vegetation were determined by the altitudes above sea level, the tidal winds on the distance from the coast, the annual average temperatures, and the forest gaps. We could discriminate the secondary succession characteristics of the Pinus thunbergii forests on the lowland and highland of Jeju Island of South Korea. Conclusions: In the lowland of Jeju Island, the secondary succession will progress to the form of Pinus thunbergii (early successional species)→Machilus thunbergii, Litsea japonica (mid-successional species)→Machilus thunbergii (late-successional species) sequence in the temperate areas with strong tidal winds.
