An object of the present invention is to provide a novel plant-derived pigment compound, which is a pigment compound represented by Formula II:
(wherein R1 to R3 independently represent a hydroxyl group or an alkoxy group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and R4 and R5 independently represent a hydrogen atom, an acyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms). The compound is a yellow pigment extracted from the endosperm or the like of the rice cultivar "Hatsuyamabuki."
本发明的目的是提供一种新型植物源色素化合物,它是一种由式 II 表示的色素化合物:
(其中 R1 至 R3 分别代表羟基或具有 1 至 4 个碳原子的烷氧基,R4 和 R5 分别代表氢原子、具有 1 至 4 个碳原子的酰基或具有 1 至 4 个碳原子的烷基)。该化合物是从
水稻品种 "Hatsuyamabuki "的胚乳或类似物中提取的黄色素。
