Abstract:
A retinoid was isolated by a multistep procedure from the small intestines of vitamin A-deficient rats given a single dose of retinoic acid. The compound, designated 8II, was pure, as demonstrated by four high-pressure liquid chromatographic procedures. It was positively identified as 5,8-oxyretinoic acid by ultraviolet spectrophotometry, mass spectrometry, and spectral and chromatographic comparison to known compounds. It is probable that 5,8-oxyretinoic acid was produced from 5,6-epoxyretinoic acid under the acidic conditions used in the isolation. It is highly probable, therefore, that the natural product is 5,6-epoxyretinoic acid.
