δ-Viniferin is a resveratrol dehydrodimer. It is an isomer of epsilon-viniferin. It can be isolated from stressed grapevine (Vitis vinifera) leaves.[3] It is also found in plant cell cultures[4] and wine.[5] It can also be found in Rheum maximowiczii.[1]
It is a grapevine phytoalexin following stresses[3] like fungal infection (byPlasmopara viticola, the agent of downy mildew),[6] UV light irradiationorozone treatment.[7]
Botryosphaeria obtusa, a pathogen responsible for the black dead arm disease of grapevine, has also been shown to be able to oxidise wood δ-resveratrol into delta-viniferin.[8]
In cell cultures, the use of methyl jasmonate and jasmonic acidaselicitors stimulates δ-viniferin biosynthesis.[9]
Delta-viniferin can also be produced from resveratrol by human PTGS1 (COX-1, cyclooxygenase-1)[10] or from trans-resveratrol and (−)-epsilon-viniferinbyhorseradish peroxidase.[11]
