Abstract

A viable approach for the selective synthesis of the 4→6-linked catechin dimers is described. The regioselective union of an acyclic catechin precursor (seco-catechin) and an electrophilic catechin unit was achieved. Subsequent pyran cyclization constructed the requisite 4→6-linked dimeric structure. This method would serve as a facile method, accessing the 4→6-linked oligocatechins.
