Abstract

Three flavan-3,4-diol derivatives were isolated from the heartwood of Robinia pseudoacacia and characterized by spectroscopic methods including $^1H$ and $^{13}C$ NMR and positive FAB-MS. The structures were identified as 4,4'-dimethoxy-, 4-ethoxy- and 4-ethoxy-4'-methoxy-2,3-trans-3,4-cis-(+)-leucorobinetinidin.
