Abstract

The Specification comprises 13,14,131,141-tetrahydr - 11,12;111,121 - bis-dehydro-13,131-dihydroxy-b -carotene having the formula:- <FORM:0915037/IV (b)/1> This compound may be obtained as a light orange-coloured oil having lambdamax 285 mm (e = 44000) by reacting 2 mols of the organometallic compound obtained by dropping 6 - (21,61,61-trimethylcyclohexen-11-yl)-4 methylhexadi-3,5-en-1-yn on to ethyl magnesium bromide with 2 mols of octen-(4)-di-2,7-one at 0 DEG C. This compound may be converted to b -carotene by 2 methods:- (1) Splitting off water by dissolving in an inert solvent such as benzene, toluene, carbon tetrachloride or a petroleum ether; adding an organic base such as pyridine, quinoline, a dialkyl aniline, N-phenyl morpholine or triethylamine and then heating with PCl5, PBr3, POCl3, SOCl2 or AsCl3 to produce the 11,12;111,121-bis-dihydro-b -carotene which is then partially hydrogenated in the presence of a contaminated noble metal catalyst in an organic solvent, if necessary with isomerisation to produce b -carotene. (2) Partially hydrogenating the compound with lithium aluminium hydride in ether to give 13,131-dihydroxy-b -carotene and then splitting off water by refluxing in a nitrogen atmosphere in carbon tetrachloride with N-iodosuccinimide to produce b -carotene, which may be converted to the all-trans form by isomerisation if desired.
