Molar Absorptivities and Reducing Capacity of Pyranoanthocyanins and Other Anthocyanins
2007
To improve accuracy in the determination of anthocyanin purity and succeeding antioxidant capacity, 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy have been combined with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) equipped with a diode array detector and UV–vis spectroscopy in the analysis of anthocyanidin 3-glycosides and 5-carboxypyranoanthocyanidin 3-glycosides. The molar absoptivity (e) values were found to be relatively similar, in contrast to previously reported literature values, and the average e values for both anthocyanidin 3-monoglycosides and 5-carboxypyranoanthocyanidin 3-glycosides were proposed to be 22 000 and 23 000 in acidified aqueous and methanolic solutions, respectively. To assess the influence of structure on the potential antioxidant capacity of anthocyanins, the 3-glucosides of pelargonidin (1), cyanidin (2), peonidin (3), delphinidin (4), petunidin (5), malvidin (6), 5-carboxypyranopelargonidin (8), 5-carboxypyranocyanidin (9), 5-carboxypyranodelphinidin (11), 5-carboxypyr...
