Punicalagin (Pyuni-cala-jen) is an ellagitannin, a type of phenolic compound. It is found as alpha and beta isomers in pomegranates (Punica granatum), Terminalia catappa, Terminalia myriocarpa, [1] and in Combretum molle, the velvet bushwillow, a plant species found in South Africa. [2] These three genera are all Myrtales and the last two are both Combretaceae.
Punicalagins are water-soluble and
hydrolyze into smaller phenolic compounds, such as
ellagic acid.
There were no toxic effects in rats on a 6% diet of punicalagins for 37 days.
[3] In laboratory research, punicalagins had
carbonic anhydrase inhibitor activity.
