Chemical Information
FooDB Name(-)-Epiafzelechin
Description(-)-Epiafzelechin belongs to the class of organic compounds known as flavan-3-ols. These are flavans that bear and hydroxyl group at position 3 (B ring), but not at position 4. Thus, (-)-epiafzelechin is considered to be a flavonoid lipid molecule (-)-Epiafzelechin is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Outside of the human body, (-)-Epiafzelechin is found, on average, in the highest concentration within tea (-)-Epiafzelechin has also been detected, but not quantified in, fruits and kiwis. This could make (-)-epiafzelechin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. A catechin derivative having (2R,3R)-configuration.
