1,3,5-Trihydroxybenzene
Phloroglucinol, also known as 1,3,5-benzenetriol or 1,3,5-trihydroxybenzene, belongs to phloroglucinols and derivatives class of compounds. Those are compounds containing a phloroglucinol (benzene-1,3,5-triol) moiety, which consists of a benzene ring bearing one hydroxyl group at positions 1,3, and 5. Phloroglucinol is soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Phloroglucinol can be found in a number of food items such as garden onion, tea, soft-necked garlic, and tarragon, which makes phloroglucinol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Phloroglucinol can be found primarily in feces. Phloroglucinol is an organic compound that is used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and explosives. It is a phenol derivative with antispasmodic properties that is used primarily as a laboratory reagent . Phloroglucinol is a benzenetriol. It is an organic compound that is used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and explosives. This molecule exists in two forms, or tautomers, 1,3,5-trihydroxybenzene, which has phenol-like, and 1,3,5-cyclohexanetrione (phloroglucin), which has ketone-like character. These two tautomers are in equilibrium. Phloroglucinol is a useful intermediate because it is polyfunctional. 1,3,5-Trihydroxybenzene has been found to be a metabolite in Pseudomonas (PMID: 15826166).

Eckol
Eckol is a phlorotannin that is oxanthrene-1,3,6,8-tetrol substituted by a 3,5-dihydroxyphenoxy moiety at position 4. Isolated from the marine brown alga, Ecklonia cava, it exhibits antioxidant activity. It has a role as a metabolite and an antioxidant. It is functionally related to a phloroglucinol. Eckol is a natural product found in Ecklonia cava, Ecklonia maxima, and Eisenia bicyclis with data available. A phlorotannin that is oxanthrene-1,3,6,8-tetrol substituted by a 3,5-dihydroxyphenoxy moiety at position 4. Isolated from the marine brown alga, Ecklonia cava, it exhibits antioxidant activity.
