Abstract :
The analysis of anthocyanin pigments in the passion fruitPassiflora edulisand in the highly colored fruits ofP. suberosawas performed using combinations of chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques. In addition to cyanidin 3-glucoside (97%), small amounts of cyanidin 3-(6″-malonylglucoside) (2%) and pelargonidin 3-glucoside (1%) were found in the rind of the passion fruit. The 3-(6″-malonylglucoside) and 3-glucoside of cyanidin, delphinidin, petunidin, and pelargonidin were identified in extracts ofP. suberosa.Anthocyanins acylated with malonic acid constituted 27% of the total anthocyanin content in this latter species.
