title: Tannins of theaceous plants. V. Camelliatannins F, G and H, three new tannins from Camellia japonica L.
abstract: Two new complex tannins, camelliatannins F (3) and G (4), were isolated from the leaves of Camellia japonica L. (Theaceae), and their structures, each consisting of an epicatechin unit and a C-glucosidic ellagitannin moiety, were elucidated. A new dimeric hydrolyzable tannin, named camelliatannin H (5), was isolated from the fruits of this plant. Camelliins A (6) and B (7), and camelliatannin A (1) and 3 were also isolated from the fruits.
