Schiff bases formed from retinal and phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, ethanolamine or serine.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: 1. Conditions were established for the reaction of retinal with phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, ethanolamine and serine in chloroform, ethanol or ethanol-water solutions to form retinylidene compounds, or Schiff bases. 2. The Schiff bases were reduced to retinyl compounds with sodium borohydride. 3. Absorption maxima and molar extinction coefficients were determined for the various retinylidene and retinyl compounds and for the corresponding coloured products formed by their reaction with antimony trichloride.
