The dihydrochalcones phloretin and phloridzin are major phenolic constituents of apple fruit. Phloretin‐ d 4 , deuterated at both the α and β positions, was prepared by hydrogenolysis of naringenin and by deuterium exchange from unlabelled phloretin using Pd/C and sodium formate with methanol‐ d 1 as the source of deuterium. Deuterated derivatives of the glycosides, phloridzin and naringin dihydrochalcone, were similarly prepared. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
