CAS 119-13-1: δ-Tocopherol
Description:δ-Tocopherol, also known as delta-tocopherol, is one of the eight forms of vitamin E, a fat-soluble antioxidant that plays a crucial role in protecting cell membranes from oxidative damage. It is characterized by its chemical structure, which includes a chromanol ring and a phytyl side chain, contributing to its biological activity. δ-Tocopherol is less common than its more prevalent isomer, α-tocopherol, but it possesses unique properties and potential health benefits, including anti-inflammatory effects and the ability to enhance immune function. It is found in various plant oils, nuts, and seeds, and is often studied for its role in cardiovascular health and cancer prevention. The substance is generally recognized as safe when consumed in appropriate amounts, but excessive intake may lead to adverse effects. In terms of solubility, δ-tocopherol is soluble in organic solvents and oils, making it suitable for incorporation into dietary supplements and functional foods. Its antioxidant properties make it a valuable compound in both nutritional and cosmetic applications.
