Classification of tannins based on
Goldbeater’s skin test
Classification of tannins based on Goldbeater’s skin test
Positive tannin which is true tannin (tanning test) there are two, hydrolyzavle and nonhydrolyzable or condensed tannin
Negative tannin (tanning test) which is pseudotannin
Tannins can precipitate
Proteins
Alkaloid
Glycoside
Soak a __ in __ ; rinse with __ and
_ in the _ to be _. _
with distilled water and transfer to a _. A _denotes the presence of tannins.
Soak a small piece of goldbeater’s skin in 2%
hydrochloric acid; rinse with distilled water and
place in the solution to be tested for 5 min. Wash
with distilled water and transfer to a 1% solution of
ferrous sulphate. A brown or black colour on the
skin denotes the presence of tannins.
Differentiate Hydrolyzable and non- Hydrolyzable/ condensed tannins
Pyrogallol Catechol
Bluish black with FeCl3 Greenish black with FeCl3
No precipitate in bromine water because it is completely solluble
+Precipitate in bromine water
Leather type: Bloom Leather ( common leather type)
type: +Tanner’s red
Readily hydrolyzed to yield
phenolic acids and sugars
+When they are treated with hydrolytic
agents, they tend to polymerize
yielding PHLOBAPHENES
It is the red insoluble compounds
Phlobaphens
What is the difference between hydrolyzavle tannins and condensed tannins based on OH number
3 OH ni Hydrolyzable
2 OH ni Condensed tannin
General test for condensed tannin
Matchstick test
MATCH STICK TEST:
When a match stick is dipped in _
followed by _ & _ The wood of the
matchstick has lignin.
.
MATCH STICK TEST:
When a match stick is dipped in tannin extract
followed by HCl & warmed near a
flame it turns pink in colour. The wood of the
matchstick has lignin.
Upon hydrolysis of the tannins due to HCl,
phloroglucinol is formed which reacts with the
lignin of the wood to produce the pink colour.
Upon hydrolysis of the tannins due to _ ,
Then what is formed
Tannin
Phroglucinol
Upon hydrolysis of the tannins due to HCl,
phloroglucinol is formed which reacts with the
_ of the wood to produce the _
lignin
pink colour
They are compounds of lower molecular weight than
true tannins and they do not respond to the goldbeater’s
skin test
Pseudotannin
Examples of Pseudotannin
Gallic acid: Rhubarb
Catechins: Guarana, Cocoa
Chlorogenic acid: Mate, Coffee
Ipecacuanhic acid: ipecacuanha
Nasa GC CI pseudo
Pseudotannin
Gallic acid: Rhubarb
Catechins: Guarana, Cocoa
Chlorogenic acid: Mate, Coffee
Ipecacuanhic acid: ipecacuanha
Example of tannins
WITCH HAZEL / HAZEL NUT / SNAPPING NUT
Nutgall
Black catechu
Black catechu
Acacia hundra
Witch hazel/ hazel nut and snapping nut is from the
leaves of Hammamelis virginiana
Nutgall is from the
Quercus infectoria (plants) and Cynips tinctoria (insects)
Sources of Hydrolyzable
Quercus infectoria
Nutgall
What is the source of condensed tannin
Black catechu
consists of fixed oils, fats and waxes
Lipids
Lipids is also known as
Lipins or lipoids
Differentiate fixed oils, fats and waxes
FO- Long chain unsaturated FA + glycerol
FATS
Long chain saturated FA+ glycerol
WAXES
Long chain FAb+ HMW such as cetyl alcohol and stearyl alcohol
Liquid at room temperature
Fixed oils
