Description

ChEBI: A gallate ester obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of gallic acid with the (3S)-hydroxy group of (+)-epicatechin.


(+)-epicatechin-3-O-gallate is a gallate ester obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of gallic acid with the (3S)-hydroxy group of (+)-epicatechin. It has a role as a metabolite. It is a catechin, a gallate ester and a polyphenol. It derives from a gallic acid and a (+)-epicatechin.
