Catechins refer to a subgroup of flavan 3-ol derivatives (FL63AC). The two chiral center at C2 and C3 of the flavan 3-ols produces 4 isomers, and (+)-Catechin and its stereoisomer (-)-Epicatechin are naturally abundant. Less abundant are (-)-Catechin and (+)-Epicatechin.
- afzelechin ... catechin minus 1 hydroxyl group in ring B
- gallocatechin ... catechin plus 1 hydroxyl group in ring B

| Name | (+)-Catechin or D-Catechin |

ent-Catechin or (-)-Catechin |
ent-Epicatechin or (+)-Epicatechin |

| Afzelechins | (+)-Afzelechin | (-)-Epiafzelechin | ent-Epiafzelechin | |
| Gallocatechins | (+)-Gallocatechin | (-)-Epigallocatechin | ent-Gallocatechin |
Among the stereoisomers, the bioavailability in human follows the order:
| (-)-epicatechin | > | (+)-catechin | = | (+)-epicatechin | > | (-)-catechin |
The circulation level of (-)-epicatechin is 6 times higher than that of (-)-catechin. Naturally abundant species are more bioavailable than less abundant ones.
