Synthesis of 818-ethanoretinal and its interaction with apo-retinochrome

A11-(E)-8,18-ethanoretinal was synthesized from 2,2-dimethylcyclohexanone, and its binding experiment with apo-retinochrome afforded the new retinochrome analog, whose opsin shift exhibited fairly similar to that of the natural retinochrome.

Conformational Study of Retinochrome Chromophore: Synthesis of 8,18-Ethanoretinal and a New Retinochrome Analog

In order to investigate the chromophore conformation around the trimethylcyclohexene ring in retinochrome, (all-E)-8,18-ethanoretinal (2), which C8 and C18 positions of retinal 1 was connected by an ethylene group, was synthesized via the Dieckmann conden
