Identification of anthocyanin-flavanol pigments in red wines by NMR and mass spectrometry.
Three newly formed Port wine pigments were isolated by Toyopearl HW-40(s) gel chromatography and semipreparative HPLC. Furthermore, the pigments were identified by mass spectrometry (LC/MS) and NMR techniques (1D and 2D). These anthocyanin-derived pigments showed UV-visible spectra different from those of the original grape anthocyanins. These pigments correspond to malvidin 3-glucoside linked through a vinyl bond to either (+)-catechin, (-)-epicatechin, or procyanidin dimer B3 [(+)-catechin-(+)-catechin]. NMR data of these pigments are reported for the first time.
