what structure backbone are phenolic acids? what are they classified under, and what are their types (with an example for each)
C1-C6 and C3-C6. They are simple phenols? They have hydroxycinnamic acids (like caffeic acid), and hydroxybenzoic acid (like vannilic acid)
what structure backbone are stillbenes? what are they classified under
C6-C2-C6. They are under Polyphenols, more specifically a non-flavonoid.
what structure backbone are lignans? what are they classified under
two C6-C3 units. They are under Polyphenols, more specifically a non-flavonoid.
what structure backbone are flavonoids? what are they classified under
C6-C3-C6. They are under Polyphenols.
