Also known as 1-O-galloyl-3,6-hexahydroxydiphenic acid-beta-D-glucopyranose, gallotannin, (beta-1-O-galloyl-3,6-(R)-hexahydroxydiphenoyl-d-glucose)

Corilagin is an ellagitannin. Corilagin was first isolated in 1951 from Dividivi extract and from Caesalpinia coriaria, hence the name of the molecule. It can also be found in Alchornea glandulosa and in the leaves of Punica granatum (pomegranate).
