Chlorogenic acid (CGA) is a natural chemical compound which is the ester of caffeic acid and (−)-quinic acid. It is an important biosynthetic intermediate.[1] Chlorogenic acid is an important intermediate in lignin biosynthesis. This compound, known as an antioxidant, may also slow the release of glucose into the bloodstream after a meal.[2]
The term chlorogenic acids can also refer to a related family of esters of hydroxycinnamic acids (caffeic acid, ferulic acid and p-coumaric acid) with quinic acid.[3]
Despite the "chloro" of the name, chlorogenic acids contain no chlorine. Instead, the name comes from the Greek χλωρός (light green) and -γένος (a suffix meaning "giving rise to"), because of the green color produced when chlorogenic acids are oxidized.
Chemical properties
Structurally, chlorogenic acid is the ester formed between caffeic acid and L-quinic acid.[4]
Isomers of chlorogenic acid include 4-O-caffeoylquinic acid (cryptochlorogenic acid or 4-CQA), 5-O-caffeoylquinic acid (neochlorogenic acid or 5-CQA). The epimer at position 1 has not yet been reported.[3]
Isomers containing two caffeic acid molecules are called isochlorogenic acid. It can be found in coffee.[5] There are several isomers such as 3,4-dicaffeoylquinic acid and 3,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid[6] Cynarine (1,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid) is an other isomer with two caffeic acid molecules..

Chlorogenic acid is freely soluble in ethanol and acetone.
Natural occurrences
Chlorogenic acid can be found in bamboo Phyllostachys edulis.[7] as well as in many other plants.[8] It is one of the major phenolic compounds identified in peach[9]
Chlorogenic acid can be found in the shoots of Calluna vulgaris (heather).[10]
Presence in food
Chlorogenic acid and its conformational isomers, cryptochlorogenic acid, and neochlorogenic acid were discovered in the leaves of Hibiscus sabdariffa, a popular tea product worldwide [11] Isomers of chlorogenic acid are found in potatoes.[12] Chlorogenic acid is the most abundant phenolic acid in the flesh of eggplant fruits.[13]
It is also found in prunes.[14]
It also is one of the phenols found in green coffee bean extract.[15]
Food additive
Chlorogenic acid is marketed under the tradename Svetol, a standardized green coffee extract, as a food additive used in coffee products, chewing gum, and mints, and also as a stand-alone product. Dried sunflower leaves collected immediately after opening are processed into 98.38% chlorogenic acid extract and marketed in Bulgaria under the name of "Yamiagra"or "Yummyiagra".
Biological effects
Review articles in 2014[16] and 2011[17] report modest blood pressure lowering effects from chlorogenic acid administration. No studies have appeared to assess possible interactions with antihypertensive drugs or advisability in patients being treated for low blood pressure.
Chlorogenic acid is reported to be a chemical sensitizer responsible for human respiratory allergy to certain types of plant materials.[18]
It could be involved in the laxative effect observed in prunes.[14]
