Delphinidin-3-O-(6-p-coumaroyl)glucoside explained

Delphinidin 3-O-(6-p-coumaroyl)glucoside is a p-coumaroylated anthocyanin. It can be found in some red Vitis vinifera grape cultivars (like Graciano^[1]) and in red wine.^[2]

It is formed by the enzyme anthocyanin 3-O-glucoside 6″-O-hydroxycinnamoyltransferase from delphinidin 3-O-glucoside and p-coumaroyl-CoA in the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway.^[3]
