Mechanism of the conversion of flavan-3,4-diols into dihydroflavonols and flavanones in acid medium
Abstract
Substitution reactions of mercaptoacetic acid with 2,3-trans- and 2,3-cis-flavan-3,4-diols and 2,3-trans-flavan-[4-2H]-3,4-diols illustrate the mechanism of their conversion into dihydroflavonol and flavanone analogues as side-reactions.
