Chemical Properties

Oil

Uses

Trans-Phytoene is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of carotenoids.

Definition

ChEBI: The all-trans-isomer of phytoene.

Purification Methods

Purify phytoene by chromatography on columns of magnesium oxide-Supercel (a diatomaceous filter aid) or alumina [Rabourn et al. Arch Biochem Biophys 48 267 1954]. Store it as a solution in pet ether under nitrogen at -20o. [Beilstein 1 IV 1155.]
