Abstract: The anthocyanin synthesized from date palm may include co-pigmented anthocyanin complexes synthesized by extracting an anthocyanin from date palm leaves and reacting the anthocyanin with phenolic compounds also resulting from date palm leaf extraction in order to produce a co-pigmented anthocyanin complex. Date palm leaf powder may be mixed with water containing about 1.08% hydrochloric acid in a glass or ceramic lined reactor, and extraction may be performed by boiling the mixture for an hour or more. The color of the co-pigmented anthocyanin complex produced by this method may be adjusted by continuing the heating in half hour increments, in order to deepen the hue of the co-pigmented anthocyanin complex. The co-pigmented anthocyanin complex may be separated from the liquid mixture by first filtering the liquid mixture, refining the liquid mixture by adding gelatin to form a colloidal solution, and freeze-drying the refined liquid mixture.
