Carotenoids from Anthers and Petals of Lilium tigrinum cv. ‘Red Night’Amongst the 29 carotenoids separated and characterized by modern methods the following are worth mentioning: (9′Z)-, (9Z)-, (13′Z)- und (13Z)-capsanthins (20-23), the novel 6-epikarpoxanthin (= (3S,5R,6S,3′R)-5,6-dihydro-β,β-carotene-3,5,6,3′-tetrol; 25), karpoxanthin (= (3S,5R,6R,3′R)-5,6-dihydro-β,β-carotene-3,5,6,3′-tetrol; 28), and lilixanthin (= (3S,4S,3′S,5′R)-3,4,3′-trihydroxy-β,κ-carotene-6′-one; 26). The main carotenoids from the petals, in comparison with those of the anthers, represent a more advanced metabolic state.
