  <description>Epicatechin 3-(4-methylgallate) is a member of the class of compounds known as catechin gallates. Catechin gallates are organic compounds containing a gallate moiety glycosidically linked to a catechin. Thus, epicatechin 3-(4-methylgallate) is considered to be a flavonoid lipid molecule. Epicatechin 3-(4-methylgallate) is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Epicatechin 3-(4-methylgallate) can be found in tea, which makes epicatechin 3-(4-methylgallate) a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. </description>
