β-Apo-8′-carotenal

Description:
β-Apo-8′-carotenal, with the CAS number 1107-26-2, is a carotenoid derivative characterized by its vibrant orange-yellow color and is primarily known for its role as a precursor in the biosynthesis of vitamin A. This compound is a form of apocarotenoid, which means it is derived from the cleavage of carotenoids. It possesses a conjugated double bond system, contributing to its strong UV-Vis absorption properties, which are significant in various applications, including food coloring and nutritional supplements. β-Apo-8′-carotenal is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water, making it suitable for incorporation into oil-based formulations. Additionally, it exhibits antioxidant properties, which can help in protecting cells from oxidative stress. Its stability can be influenced by factors such as light, temperature, and pH, necessitating careful handling and storage. Overall, β-Apo-8′-carotenal is valued not only for its color and nutritional benefits but also for its potential health-promoting properties.
