| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Retinyl acetate (retinol acetate, vitamin A acetate,127-47-9) is a natural form of vitamin A. It is the acetate ester of retinol. It consists of yellow crystals which are greasy or sticky. It has a mild, characteristic odor. It has potential antineoplastic and chemo-preventive activities. It can be used to fortify food with vitamin A. As vitamin A acetate can induce cell differentiation and inhibit cell proliferation, it is used in skin-conditioning agent. | [Chemical Properties]

vitamin precursor | [Definition]
ChEBI: Retinyl acetate is an acetate ester. It is functionally related to an all-trans-retinol. | [Preparation]
A method for preparing retinyl acetate the following steps:
Under alkaline conditions, 3-methyl-4-oxo-2-butene-1-yl acetate (referred to as C5 aldehyde ester) and tetraethyl methylene diphosphate undergo a condensation reaction to form an intermediate C6 phosphate (chemical name: 5-(diethyl phosphate)-3-methyl-2,4-hexadiene-1-acetate).
Under alkaline conditions, the C6 phosphate undergoes a transposition reaction. C14 aldehyde (chemical name: 2-methyl-4-(2,6,6-trimethyl-1-cyclohexene-1-yl)-3-butene-1-aldehyde) is then added to undergo a Wittig-Horner condensation reaction, yielding retinyl acetate. | [General Description]
Retinyl acetate is suitable(127-47-9) for use in the retention identification of the analyte when using HPLC and GC. Not intended for use as an activity reference standard. It has been thoroughly evaluated to ensure the utmost quality. Neat, unless otherwise noted. Certificate of Composition provided with the purchase.
| [Flammability and Explosibility]
Notclassified | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Retinyl esters provide pools of vitamin A that are converted into retinol and other retinoids as required. Retinyl acetate is used in a wide range of biological applications. It acts as a chemopreventive agent. Retinyl acetate also has antineoplastic property. | [Purification Methods]
The acetate is separated from retinol by column chromatography, then crystallised from MeOH. [Kofler and Rubin Vitamins and Hormones (NY) 18 315 1960 for purification methods]. Store it in the dark, under N2 or Ar, at 0o. [Beilstein 6 IV 4135.] | [References]
