trans-Resveratrol-3-O-glucuronide is a metabolite of resveratrol with a sugar acid attached to a hydroxy group at the 3-position. The related compound, piceid, contains a sugar alcohol instead.

Formation

A glucuronosyltransferase anzyme converts resveratrol to its glucuronide by adding a sugar acid at a specific phenolic hydroxy group, with uridine diphosphate (UDP) as byproduct:
