Natural Product Identification
Common Name3,6:5',8'-Diepoxy-5,5',6,8'-tetrahydro-b,b-carotene-3',5-diol
DescriptionCucurbitachrome 1 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. Cucurbitachrome 1 is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Outside of the human body, Cucurbitachrome 1 has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as fruits, green bell peppers, yellow bell peppers, italian sweet red peppers, and herbs and spices. 3,6:5',8'-Diepoxy-5,5',6,8'-tetrahydro-b,b-carotene-3',5-diol is found in Capsicum annuum var. longum . It was first documented in 2000 (PMID: 11413487). This could make cucurbitachrome 1 a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods (PMID: 16902246) (PMID: 17374880) (PMID: 20044567).
