TERPENOIDSTERPENOIDSOrganic compounds occur widely in
plantsMost of them are essential oilsUsed as flavouring agents,
antibiotics,cosmetics etcGen formula of (C5H8)n
TERPENES means derivatives of hydrocarbons made up of ISOPRENE UNITS joined in a head to tail way. Can be given by isoprene rule..

Why should we take
carotenes???
They will increase immunity, cure
heart diseases,act as anti oxidants,
treats cataract,and prevents all forms
of cancer from attacking our
body..

It is a good source of vitamin
A(retinol)and nuetralizes free radicals there by protecting from
cancer

Antioxidant function of Antioxidant function of ββ carotene caroteneQuenches singlet oxygen by dissipating
the energy as heatReacts with triplet oxygen to prevent the
formation of singlet oxygen. The quenching process does not destroy
beta-carotene.The mechanism is physical rather than chemical.
Excess energy of the singlet oxygen, 1O2*, is transferred to the carotenoid’s electron
![Page 8: b Carotene - Copy](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062417/5527447149795994178b4635/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The carotenoid is excited by this added energy into the “triplet” excited state, 3Car*, and then relaxes into its ground state, 1Car, loosing the extra energy as heat.
1O2* + 1Car → 3O2+ 3Car* 3Car* → 1Car + heat A single molecule of beta-carotene can arrest
up to 1000 molecules of singlet oxygen.

UV SPECTROSCOPY
The spectra shows a maxima at approximately 470nm, which corresponds to the absorption of blue light and so the chemical appears orange
![Page 21: b Carotene - Copy](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062417/5527447149795994178b4635/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
WHY IS IT ORANGE?
beta-carotene has delocalisation, with 11 carbon-carbon double bonds conjugated together. The diagram shows the structure of beta-carotene with the alternating double and single bonds shown in red.
![Page 22: b Carotene - Copy](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062417/5527447149795994178b4635/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
The more delocalisation, the smaller the gap between the highest energy bonding orbital and the lowest energy pi anti-bonding orbital. To promote an electron therefore takes less energy in beta-carotene- because the gap between the levels is less.
less energy means a lower frequency of light gets absorbed - and that's equivalent to a longer wavelength.
Beta-carotene absorbs throughout the ultra-violet region into the violet - but particularly strongly in the visible region between about 400 and 500 nm with a peak about 470 nm.

Carotenoids are destroyed/altered to mixtures of cis-trans isomers by the action of acids and free halogens in the presence of light and high temperature.
They are also easily oxidised in the presence of oxygen and other oxidising agents.
For these reasons, care must be taken in carotenoid analysis to remove light and limit the exposure to oxygen
Stability is effected due to ph, heat ,light temperature etc..
