Qualitative Aspects of UV-Vis Spectrophotometry of Beta-Carotene and Lycopene.
Tan, Barrie; Soderstrom, David N.
Journal of Chemical Education, v66 n3 p258-60 Mar 1989
Explores the structural behavior of polyenic pi systems such as isomerization and conjugation. Uses the simultaneous spectrophotometric analysis of a beta-carotene and lycopene mixture. Presents an empirical method to determine the number of double bonds in the polyenic carotenoid. (MVL)
