Malvin is a naturally occurring chemical of the anthocyanin family.
Malvin reacts in the presence of H2O2 to form malvone.[2] The ortho-benzoyloxyphenylacetic acid esters reaction product is dependant of the pH: it is obtained under acidic conditions whereas under neutral conditions, the reaction product is the 3-O-acyl-glucosyl-5-O-glucosyl-7-hydroxy coumarin.[3]
Natural occurrences
[edit]It is a diglucoside of malvidin mainly found as a pigment in herbs like Malva (Malva sylvestris), Primula and Rhododendron.[4] M. sylvestris also contains malonylmalvin (malvidin 3-(6″-malonylglucoside)-5-glucoside).[5]
The characteristic floral jade coloration of Strongylodon macrobotrys has been shown to be an example of copigmentation, a result of the presence of malvin and saponarin (a flavone glucoside) in the ratio 1:9.
Presence in food
[edit]Malvin can be found in a variety of common foods, including peaches (Clingstone variety[6]).
