The flavans are a type of flavonoid. These compounds include the flavan-3-ols, flavan-4-ols and flavan-3,4-diols (Leucoanthocyanidin).
A C-glycosidic flavan can be isolated from cocoa liquor.[1]
Casuarina glauca is an actinorhizal plant producing root nitrogen-fixing nodules infested by Frankia. There is a regular pattern of cell layers containing flavans.[2]
