Abstract
β-Carotene when refluxed with N-bromosuccinimide yields a complicated pigment mixture from which three compounds have been isolated in pure state, viz., dehydro-β-carotene, C_(40)H_(54), bisdehydro-β-carotene, C_(40)H_(52), and a pigment very probably identical with anhydro-eschscholtzxanthin, C_(40)H_(50). Some spectral and stereochemical observations are discussed.
