Abstract

The rind of immature and mature citrus fruits (Citrus grandis OSBECK forma Mato×C. sulcata Hort ex TAKAHASHI?) yielded neohesperidin (1.5%), naringin (0.22%), and rhoifolin (trace) from the immature fruit, and neohesperidin (2.7%) and naringin (0.14%) from the mature one. Another kind of mature and immature citrus (scientific name unknown) yielded naringin (1.2%), rhoifolin (0.024%), and naringin (15%) respectively. The content of the foregoing flavanone glycoside was larger in the immature fruit. Naringin, the flavanone glycoside, forms the corresponding flavone glycoside, rhoifolin, with ripening of the fruit.
