title: Revised structure of cercidinin A, a novel ellagitannin having (R)-hexahydroxydiphenoyl esters at the 3,4-positions of glucopyranose.
abstract: The structure of cercidinin A, an ellagitannin isolated from the bark of Cercidiphyllum japonicum, was revised to 1,2,6-tri-O-galloyl-3,4-(R)-hexahydroxydiphenoyl-beta-D-glucose by two-dimensional NMR spectral analysis. Cercidinin A represents the first ellagitannin possessing a hexahydroxydiphenoyl group at the 3,4-positions of a modified 4C1-glucopyranose core.
