3,5-dihydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)-6-(3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoyloxy)oxan-4-yl 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoate is a predicted metabolite generated by BioTransformer¹ that is produced by the metabolism of 2-{[3,4,5,12,21,23-hexahydroxy-8,18-dioxo-11,13-bis(3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoyloxy)-9,14,17-trioxatetracyclo[17.4.0.0²,⁷.0¹⁰,¹⁵]tricosa-1(23),2,4,6,19,21-hexaen-22-yl]oxy}-3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoic acid. It is generated by EC.3.1.1.20 enzyme via a hydrolysis-of-glycosylated-condensed-galloyl-groups-pattern1 reaction. This hydrolysis-of-glycosylated-condensed-galloyl-groups-pattern1 occurs in human gut microbiota.
Belongs to the class of organic compounds known as tannins. These are naturally occurring polyphenols which be categorized into four main classes: Hydrolyzable tannin (based on ellagic acid or gallic acid), condensed tannins (made of oligomeric or polymeric proanthocyanidins), complex tannins (made of a catechin bound to a gallotannin or elagitannin), and phlorotannins (oligomers of phloroglucinol).
