Department of C\-«^^J^*r-^^ The University of British Columbia, Vancouver 8, Canada. Date 2-l> ^^-^^o-^r—y^ ^ nk'iL, (ii) . ABSTRACT The phenolic extractives from western hemlock wood (Tsuga heterophylla (Raf.) Sar.) have been examined The total extractive content of the wood amounted to 1.5$ of the dry weight. A leucoanthocyanidin and two lignans, conidendrin and hydroxymatairesinol, were isolated from the phenolic fraction by precipitation of a methanol solution into peroxide-free ether followed by separation on silicic acid-calcium sulphate chromatobars. The pigment produced by acid treatment of the isolated leucoantho• cyanidin was shown by spectral studies and alkaline degradation to be a mixture of cyanidin and an unidentified anthocyanidin. The two anthocyanidins had identical R^ values in different solvents and similar ultra-violet spectra in ethanol-hydrochloric acid solution but the shift of the absorption maxima caused by addition of aluminium chloride was negligible in the case of the unknown compound and amounted to 30 mji for cyanidin. Similar separations of the absorption maxima after complexing with aluminium ion were observed with the 3-methyl and 3-isopropyl ethers of the two anthocyanidins. The alkaline degradation products from the leucoanthocyanidin contained protocatechuic acid but no phloroglucinol. Degradation products of phloroglucinol, however, were present in the reaction mixture. These results suggested that the leuco• anthocyanidin occurred in the wood in dimeric form and that alkaline degradation of this structure produced a symmetrical hexahydroxyhenzophenone derivative which split up directly into fragments identical to those obtained from phloro• glucinol under the same conditions. New information on the structure of hydroxymatairesinol was obtained by comparison of the infrared spectra of the fully acetylated hydroxymatairesinol with that of the reduced compound and by neutral potassium permanganate oxidation of trimethylhydroxymatairesinol. The results obtained were in good (iii) agreement with only one of the two structures previously proposed for hydroxymatairesinol by other workers. The NMR spectra of hydroxymatairesinol and structurally related com• pounds were compared, but the interpretation of the spectrum of hydroxy• matairesinol proved to be difficult because broad, incompletely resolved lines were obtained due to the complexity and asymmetry of the molecule.

Muscari species have been thought to accumulate delphinidin and cyanidin rather than pelargonidin-type anthocyanins because their dihydroflavonol 4-reductase (DFR) does not efficiently reduce dihydrokaempferol. In our study, we clone a novel DFR gene from blue flowers of Muscari. aucheri. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and anthocyanin analysis showed that the expression pattern of MaDFR had strong correlations with the accumulation of delphinidin, relatively weak correlations with cyanidin, and no correations with pelargonidin. However, in vitro enzymatic analysis revealed that the MaDFR enzyme can reduce all the three types of dihydroflavonols (dihydrokaempferol, dihydroquercetin, and dihydromyricetin), although it most preferred dihydromyricetin as a substrate to produce leucodelphinidin, the precursor of blue-hued delphinidin.

Anthocyanins also play significant roles in plant propagation, ecophysiology, and plant defense mechanisms. Structurally, anthocyanins are anthocyanidins modified by sugars and acyl acids. Anthocyanin colors are susceptible to pH, light, temperatures, and metal ions. The stability of anthocyanins is controlled by various factors, including inter and intramolecular complexations. Chromatographic and spectrometric methods have been extensively used for the extraction, isolation, and identification of anthocyanins. Anthocyanins play a major role in the pharmaceutical; nutraceutical; and food coloring, flavoring, and preserving industries. Research in these areas has not satisfied the urge for natural and sustainable colors and supplemental products. The lability of anthocyanins under various formulated conditions is the primary reason for this delay. New gene editing technologies to modify anthocyanin structures in vivo and the structural modification of anthocyanin via semi-synthetic methods offer new opportunities in this area. This review focusses on the biogenetics of anthocyanins; their colors, structural modifications, and stability; their various applications in human health and welfare; and advances in the field. Keywords: anthocyanins; anthocyanidins; biogenetics; polyphenols; flavonoids; plant pigments; anthocyanin bioactivities 1.

Both the extraction and the conversion of leucoanthocyanin were investigated. (ethaholic) The effectiveness of five solvents, 70% acetone^ 95% ethanol, methanol, 40% aqueous acetone and 0. 1 N HCl in 40% aqueous acetone, was studied. Acetone extracted approximately 60% of the leucoantho- cyanin, ethanol extracted one-fourth and methanol extracted one- third. The conversion was studied by varying the normality of the de- veloper (HCl in n-butanol), the dispersing medium and the source of leucoanthocyanin (marc, slurry or synthetic leucocyanidin). The conversion appeared to be dependent on interrelations among all three of these factors. For developing the anthocyanidin from marc previously extracted with ethanol, a combination of a dispersing medium of 70% acetone and a normality of 0. 6 was better than ethanol and a normality of either 0. 025 or 0. 6. Seventy percent acetone and 0. 025 N gave the small- est conversion. For developing the anthocyanidin from the slurries, 0. 025 N HC1 in n-butanol was used, as browning occurred due to phlobaphene formation with higher normalities. This normality plus a dispersing medium of 70% acetone gave greater yields of anthocyani- din than did ethanol, methanol or aqueous acetone and 0.

These are human health and plant resistance to pathogens and to biotic and abiotic stress factors. A survey of agricultural technologies influencing the biosynthesis and accumulation of phenolic compounds in crop plants is presented, including observations on the effects of light, temperature, mineral nutrition, water management, grafting, elevated atmospheric CO2, growth and differentiation of the plant and application of elicitors, stimulating agents and plant activators. The underlying mechanisms are discussed with respect to carbohydrate availability, trade-offs to competing demands as well as to regulatory elements. Outlines are given for genetic engineering and plant breeding. Constraints and possible physiological feedbacks are considered for successful and sustainable application of agricultural techniques with respect to management of plant phenol profiles and concentrations.

Received: 15 November 2008; in revised form: 26 November 2008 / Accepted: 27 November 2008 / Published: 4 December 2008 Abstract: Proanthocyanidins are present in many fruits and plant products like grapes and wine, and contribute to their taste and health benefits. In the past decades of years, substantial progresses has been achieved in the identification of composition and structure of proanthocyanidins, but the debate concerning the existence of an enzymatic or nonenzymatic mechanism for proanthocyanidin condensation still goes on. Substantial attention has been paid to elucidating the potential mechanism of formation by means of biomimetic and chemical synthesis in vitro. The present paper aims at summarizing the research status on chemical synthesis of proanthocyanidins, including non-enzymatic synthesis of proanthocyanidin precursors, chemical synthesis of proanthocyanidins with direct condensation of flavanols and stereoselective synthesis of proanthocyanidins. Proanthocyanidin-involved reactions in aging wines are also reviewed such as direct and indirect reactions among proanthocyanidins, flavanols and anthocyanins.
