Karpoxanthin and 6-EpikarpoxanthinA tetrahydroxy-β,β-carotene previously isolated in minute amounts from ripe hips of Rosa pomifera was now identified as (3S,5R,6R,3′R)-5,6-dihydro-β,β-carotene-3,5,6,3′-tetrol (2). Acid hydrolysis of (9Z)-antheraxanthin (3) gave 2 and its C(6)-epimer 4. Tetrol 2 is named karpoxanthin.
