Abstract

Two new anthocyanin-derived compounds corresponding to the ethylpyranomalvidin-3-glucoside and the pyranomalvidin-3-glucoside dimer linked through a methyl-methine bridge were synthesized for the first time and their structure characterized by LC-DAD/MS and NMR spectroscopy. The latter was obtained in a hydroalcoholic model solution through the reaction of the carboxypyranomalvidin-3-glucoside with ethylpyranomalvidin-3-glucoside and displays a blue/green color in solution.
