ζ2-Tocopherol

Description:
ζ2-Tocopherol, also known as gamma-tocopherol, is a form of vitamin E and is classified as a fat-soluble antioxidant. It is characterized by its ability to scavenge free radicals, thereby protecting cellular membranes from oxidative damage. This compound is primarily found in various plant oils, nuts, and seeds, contributing to its nutritional significance. Chemically, it is a chromanol derivative, featuring a chromane ring with a hydroxyl group that enhances its antioxidant properties. ζ2-Tocopherol is known for its anti-inflammatory effects and potential health benefits, including cardiovascular protection and support for immune function. Unlike alpha-tocopherol, which is the most common form of vitamin E in supplements, gamma-tocopherol is more prevalent in the diet and has been studied for its unique biological activities. Its CAS number, 493-35-6, is used for identification in chemical databases. Overall, ζ2-Tocopherol plays a crucial role in human health, particularly in protecting against oxidative stress and supporting overall well-being.
