Herein, the first enantioselective total synthesis of a number of biologically relevant (−)-epicatechin conjugates is described. The success of this synthesis relied on (i) optimized conditions for the stereospecific cyclization step leading to the catechin C ring; on (ii) efficient conjugation reactions; and on (iii) optimized deprotection sequences. These standard compounds have been subsequently used to elucidate for the first time the pattern of (−)-epicatechin conjugates present in four different human biological fluids following (−)-epicatechin absorption.
