The dimeric catechins dehydrotheasinensin A (2) and theacitrin C (3) were prepared from the oxidation of (-)-epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate (EGCG, 1), and their antioxidant activity was investigated using a chemiluminescence (CL) method in vitro. Both compounds showed significant inhibitory effects on reactive oxygen species (O2-, H2O2 and ?OH) and DNA oxidative damage, with 2 being more potent than 3 and EGCG itself.
