The basic chemical structure of anthocyan pigments; an organic compound that serves as the core of anthocyanin molecules when combined with sugars.
From 'anthocyan' + '-idin' (chemical compound suffix). The scientific term for the aglycone form of anthocyanins in chemistry.
Anthocyanidins are like the skeleton key to flower color—once scientists understood that sugars attached to these molecules changed their properties, they could predict which flowers would be red versus blue before even looking at them.
