A new carotenoid, 5,6-dihydrocrustaxanthin, from prawns and the distribution of yellow xanthophylls in shrimps
2020
Maoka, Takashi
A new yellow carotenoid, named 5,6-dihydrocrustaxanthin (6), was isolated together with five yellow xanthophylls: isoastaxanthin (1), 5,6-dihydropenaeusxanthin (2), penaeusxanthin (3), tetrahydroxypirardixanthin (4), and crustaxanthin (5) from three species of prawns: Marsupenaeus japonicus, Litopenaeus vannamei, and Metapenaeus joyneri, belonging to Penaeidae. The structure of (6) was determined to be (3R,4S,5R,6R,3′R,4′S)-5,6-dihydro-β,β-carotene-3,4,3′,4′-tetrol by UV-VIS, MS, ¹H NMR, and CD spectral data. Distributions of yellow xanthophylls (1–6) in ten species of shrimps were investigated from a chemo-systematic point of view. Yellow xanthophylls (1–6) were present in only three species of prawns described above, among the ten species of shrimps investigated. Instead of 1–6, luteins and tunxanthins, having the 3-hydroxy-ε-end group, were present in other species of shrimps belonging to Penaeidae, Pandalidae, and Palaemonidae.
