'''Echinacoside''' is a [[phenolic]] constituent, a [[caffeic acid]] [[glycoside]] from the [[phenylpropanoid]] class, in which a [[trisaccharide]] consisting of one [[glucose]] and two [[rhamnose]] moieties is glycosidically linked to one caffeic acid and one dihydroxyphenylethanol residue at the centrally situated rhamnose. This glycoside is a distinctive [[secondary metabolite]] of [[Echinacea angustifolia]] and [[Echinacea pallida]] (to about 1%) but does not occur not in [[Echinacea purpurea]]. It is also isolated from [[Cistanche]] spp.
'''Echinacoside''' is a polyphenol. It can be found in ''[[Cistanche]] sp'' and ''[[Echinacea]] sp''.

Echinacoside is a phenolic constituent, a caffeic acid glycoside from the phenylpropanoid class, in which a trisaccharide consisting of one glucose and two rhamnose moieties is glycosidically linked to one caffeic acid and one dihydroxyphenylethanol residue at the centrally situated rhamnose. This glycoside is a distinctive secondary metabolite of Echinacea angustifolia and Echinacea pallida (to about 1%) but does not occur not in Echinacea purpurea. It is also isolated from Cistanche spp.
