CAS 472-66-2

β-Apo-8-carotenal

Description:

β-Apo-8-carotenal, with the CAS number 472-66-2, is a carotenoid derivative that is characterized by its vibrant orange-yellow color, which is typical of many carotenoids. It is a compound that is structurally related to beta-carotene but features a shorter carbon chain due to the cleavage of the molecule. This compound is known for its antioxidant properties, which can help neutralize free radicals in biological systems. β-Apo-8-carotenal is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water, making it more suitable for applications in oil-based formulations. It is often used in the food industry as a colorant and in cosmetics for its potential skin benefits. Additionally, research has indicated that β-Apo-8-carotenal may have potential health benefits, including supporting eye health and possibly influencing immune function. However, as with many carotenoids, the bioavailability and efficacy can vary based on dietary sources and individual metabolism.
