Notes:
Ubiquinone(45) has been synthesized from 5-methyl-2, 3-dimethoxy-hydroquinone and solanesol, which is a C45 isoprenoid alcohol. Chain-lengthening of solanesol by one isoprene unit and condensation with 5-methyl-2, 3-dimethoxy-hydroquinone led to ubiquinone(50). The synthetic ubiquinone(45) proved to be identical with a natural sample from liver of vitamin A deficient rats and synthetic ubiquinone-(50) with a natural sample from pig heart.
