Acid-catalyzed rearrangements of flavan-4-phloroglucinol derivatives to novel 6-hydroxyphenyl-6a,11b-dihydro-6H-[1]benzofuro[2,3-c]-chromenes and hydroxyphenyl-3,2′-spirobi[dihydro[1]benzofurans]

Acetic acid-catalyzed cleavage of proanthocyanidins in the presence of phloroglucinol gives a series of 2R procyanidin- and prodelphinidin-phloroglucinol adducts together with a novel 2S all-cis derivative implicating cleavage of the pyran ring and subsequent inversion of stereochemistry at C-2C. These flavan-4-phloroglucinol adducts also suffer dehydration to products with novel fused dihydrobenzopyran-dihydrobenzofuran rings. In addition, cleavage of the flavan C-10A-C-4C bond followed by dehydration results in unique 3,2′-spirobi[dihydro[1]benzofurans].

(2R,3R,4S)-4-(2,4,6-trihydroxyphenyl)flavan-3,3',4',5,7-pentaol, the first natural 4-aryl flavan-3-ol, was isolated from Nelia meyeri Schwant., and its structure and stereochemistry determined by spectroscopic investigation and synthesis.
