CAS 41743-41-3: Procyanidin A2
Description:Procyanidin A2 is a type of flavonoid, specifically a proanthocyanidin, which is a class of polyphenolic compounds found in various plants, particularly in fruits, seeds, and bark. It is characterized by its oligomeric structure, consisting of two catechin units linked by a bond between the carbon atoms. Procyanidin A2 is known for its antioxidant properties, which contribute to its potential health benefits, including cardiovascular protection and anti-inflammatory effects. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits a relatively low solubility in water. This compound is often studied for its role in human health, particularly in relation to its ability to scavenge free radicals and modulate various biological pathways. Procyanidin A2 is commonly found in foods such as apples, grapes, and cocoa, and is of interest in the field of nutraceuticals and functional foods due to its potential health-promoting properties. Its CAS number, 41743-41-3, is used for identification in chemical databases and regulatory contexts.
