Threo-Guaiacylglycerol-8-O-4'-Coniferyl Alcohol Ether

Threo-1-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-2-{4-[-(E)-3-hydroxy-1-propenyl]-2-methoxyphenoxy}-1,3-propanediol is a member of the class of propane-1,3-diols that is propane-1,3-diol substituted at position 1 by a 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl and at position 2 by a 4-[(1E)-3-hydroxyprop-1-en-1-yl]-2-methoxyphenoxy group (the 1R,2R stereoisomer). It is isolated from the whole plant of Lepisorus contortus. It has a role as a metabolite. It is a member of guaiacols, a phenylpropanoid, a member of propane-1,3-diols and a guaiacyl lignin. It is functionally related to a glycerol.
