β-apo-12′-Carotenal

Description:

β-apo-12′-Carotenal, with the CAS number 1638-05-7, is a carotenoid derivative characterized by its vibrant orange-yellow color, which is typical of many carotenoids. It is a linear polyene compound, featuring a long chain of conjugated double bonds that contribute to its color and potential antioxidant properties. This compound is known for its role in the biosynthesis of vitamin A and is often used as a food colorant and nutritional supplement due to its pro-vitamin A activity. β-apo-12′-Carotenal is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water, which is common for many carotenoids. Its stability can be affected by light, heat, and oxygen, necessitating careful handling and storage conditions to maintain its integrity. Additionally, it has been studied for its potential health benefits, including its role in eye health and its antioxidant capabilities, making it of interest in both nutritional science and food technology.

12'-Apo-β-carotenal

CAS: 1638-05-7

12'-Apo-beta-carotenal is a carotenoid derivative, which is primarily sourced from the oxidative cleavage of beta-carotene, a process that can occur naturally or be achieved synthetically. This compound acts as a precursor to vitamin A, playing a significant role in physiological functions related to vision, immune response, and cellular communication, through its conversion to retinal, a bioactive form of vitamin A. Furthermore, 12'-Apo-beta-carotenal is known for its strong antioxidant properties, which contribute to its effectiveness in mitigating oxidative stress.
