Stereoselective synthesis by Olefin Metathesis and characterization of η-carotene (7,8,7′,8′-tetrahydro-β,β-carotene)

The purported structure of the elusive η-carotene (7,8,7′, 8′-tetrahydro-β,β-carotene), a natural C40 carotenoid first detected in the berries of Lonicera japonica and in citrus fruits sixty years ago, has been synthesized by olefin cross-metat
