| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We thought the dimeric catechin is one of the important intermediates of polymeric polyphenol generation from catechin, and to clarify the chemical structure of polymeric polyphenol, the oxidation of oolongtheanin were investigated. New intramolecular bond was formed by the oxidation of oolongtheanin, no polymerization reaction was caused. Oxidation of oolongtheanin was performed with coexistence of catechin. However, because reactivity of catechin is higher than oolongtheanin under oxidative condition, oxidation products from catechin were only produced. These result suggests that the known dimeric catechin such as oolongtheanin were not so much key intermediate of polymeric polyphenol formation but byproduct.
In order to clarify the decreasing mechanism of the micellar solubility of cholesterol, we investigated the interaction between tea polyphenols and cholesterol micelles. The data indicated a regiospecifically interaction of EGCg with taurocholic acid.
