| Abstract: | The gallic acid, (+)-catechin and myricetin glucoside have been isolated and indentified from Bendo Eucalyptus, and two kinds of dimeric flavan-3-ol B1 and B3 were isolated as their peracetates and identified by chromatography on TLC and 1H NMR spectroscopic cha- racteristics. It is showed that condensed tannin is a procyanidin with (+)-catechin as terminal units and (–)-epicatechin as extension units by hydrolyzation anthocyanidin reaction, phloroglucinol degradation and polarimetry, UV and IR spectrometry, HPLC, 3C NMR. Linkage is C4–C8. Degree of polymerization is about 4–5. |
