Metabolite Identification
Common Name5,6-Dihydro-5,6-dihydroxy-y,y-carotene
Description5,6-Dihydro-5,6-dihydroxy-y,y-carotene belongs to the class of organic compounds known as xanthophylls. These are carotenoids containing an oxygenated carotene backbone. Carotenes are characterized by the presence of two end-groups (mostly cyclohexene rings, but also cyclopentene rings or acyclic groups) linked by a long branched alkyl chain. Carotenes belonging form a subgroup of the carotenoids family. Xanthophylls arise by oxygenation of the carotene backbone. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on 5,6-Dihydro-5,6-dihydroxy-y,y-carotene.
