Rosmarinic acid (RA) is an ester of caffeic acid and 3,4-dihydroxyphenyllactic acid which is one of the most frequently occurring caffeic acid esters in the plant kingdom besides chlorogenic acid. RA has numerous biological and pharmacological activities. Its occurrence is spread all over the land plant kingdom. Enzymes and genes of its biosynthesis are well investigated. RA can be produced in high amounts in in vitro cultivated plant cells which offers the possibility of an economical exploitation. The review reports about recent findings in the biosynthesis of RA and related caffeic acid esters and discusses some aspects of the evolution of the biosynthetic enzymes.
