Abstract
In a previous paper (Bosser and Belin, 1994), it was shown that the co -oxidation of beta-carotene (BC) by xanthine olridase in aqueous solut ions at 37 degrees C led to beta-ionone, epoxy-5,6-beta-ionone, and di hydroactinidiolide (DHA). We explain in this article the pathways betw een the ionone derivatives, and the respective places of each volatile compound in the enzymatic bleaching of BC are discussed. We also prop ose a simple synthetic way to DHA from commercially available beta-ion one.
