| Common Name | alpha-Cryptoxanthin |
|---|
| Description | Alpha-Cryptoxanthin, also known as α-cryptoxanthin, 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. alpha-Cryptoxanthin is found in Bangia fuscopurpurea, Bonnemaisonia hamifera, Caltha palustris , Capsicum annuum L. , Ceramium rubrum, Citrus paradisi , Clarias fuscus , Coffea arabica , Coffea canephora , Daucus carota , Gigartina stellata, Nemalion helminthoides, Phodymenia palmata, Polysiphonia brodiaei, Polysiphonia urceolata, Silurus microdorsalis and Tropaeolum majus . Alpha-Cryptoxanthin is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). |
