Stereochemistry

  • Chapter
Carotenoids

Part of the book series: Chemische Reihe ((LMW/C,volume 23))

Abstract

The stereochemistry of carotenoids can be conveniently discussed under three main headings: (i) geometrical isomerism about the carbon-carbon double bonds, (ii) conformation about the carbon-carbon single bonds, and (iii) the absolute configuration of any chiral groups.
