New dibenzotropolone derivatives characterized from black tea using LC/MS/MS
摘要:
Theaflavins and thearubigins are major pigments in black tea, and it is generally accepted that they are produced by oxidation of flavan-3-ols (catechins) during tea fermentation. In the course of studies on the oxidation mechanism of tea polyphenols, especially the formation of thearubigins, a method combining the enzymatic synthesis and LC/ESI-MS/MS analysis was developed to search for new higher molecular weight polymers from black tea. Three new dibenzotropolones, theadibenzotropolone A, B, and C, together with one new tribenzotropolone, theatribenzotropolone A, were formed by the reaction of theaflavins and tea catechins with horseradish peroxidase in the presence of H2O2. The structures of these new benzotropolone derivatives were elucidated on the basis of MS and 2D NMR spectroscopic analyses. The existence of these compounds in black tea was characterized by LC/ESI-MS/MS. Theadibenzotropolone A and B were the first benzotropolone-type trimers of catechins found in the black tea extract. The observation that galloyl ester groups of theaflavins can be oxidized to form di- or tri-benzotropolone skeletons strongly implied that this type of oxidation is an important pathway to extend the molecular size of thearubigins.

Theaflavins and thearubigins are major pigments of black tea. In the course of studies on the oxidation mechanism of tea polyphenols, a new type of tea pigment, theadibenzotropolone A, together with theaflavin 3-gallate were formed by the reaction of (-)-epicatechin (EC) and (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) with horseradish peroxidase in the presence of H2O2. The structure of theadibenzotropolone A was elucidated on the basis of MS and 2D NMR spectroscopic analyses. The observation that galloyl ester groups of theaflavins can be oxidized to form dibenzotropolone skeletons strongly implied that this type of oxidation as an important pathway to extend the molecular size of thearubigins. The existence of this compound in black tea was characterized by LC/ESI-MS/MS. Theadibenzotropolone A is the first theaflavin type trimer of catechins in black tea. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.
