Three-dimensional Structures of Carotenoids by X-ray Crystallography

  • Chapter
Carotenoids

Part of the book series: Carotenoids ((CAROT,volume 4))

Abstract

The number of crystal structures of carotenoid molecules and carotenoid derivatives deposited in the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre [1] is still relatively small, but has increased compared with the previous survey [2]. The list is summarized in Table 1.
