Metabolite Identification
Common NameAlpha-Tocotrienol
Descriptionalpha-Tocotrienol, also known as α-tocotrienol or zeta1-tocopherol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as tocotrienols. These are vitamin E derivatives containing an unsaturated trimethyltrideca-3,7,11-trien-1-yl chain attached to the carbon C6 atom of a benzopyran ring system. The differ from tocopherols that contain a saturated trimethyltridecyl chain. Thus, alpha-tocotrienol is considered to be a quinone. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on alpha-Tocotrienol.
