Description of (+)-α-tocopherol
- α-Tocopherol is a type of tocopherol or vitamin E. It has E number “E307”.
α-Tocopherol is a form of vitamin E that is preferentially absorbed and accumulated in humans. The measurement of “vitamin E” activity in international units (IU) was based on fertility enhancement by the prevention of spontaneous abortions in pregnant rats relative to alpha-tocopherol.
There are three stereocenters in alpha-tocopherol, so this is a chiral molecule. The eight stereoisomers of alpha-tocopherol differ in the arrangement of groups around these stereocenters. In the image of RRR-alpha-tocopherol, all three stereocenters are in the R form. However, if the middle of the three stereocenters were changed (so the hydrogen was now pointing down and the methyl group pointing up), this would become the structure of RSR-alpha-tocopherol. RSR-alpha-tocopherol and RRR-alpha-tocopherol are diastereomers of each other. These stereoisomers can also be named in an alternative older nomenclature, where the stereocenters are either in the d or l form. - 1 IU of tocopherol is defined as ⅔ milligrams of RRR-alpha-tocopherol (formerly named d-alpha-tocopherol or sometimes ddd-alpha-tocopherol). 1 IU is also defined as 1 milligram of an equal mix of the eight stereoisomers, which is a racemic mixture called all-rac-alpha-tocopheryl acetate. This mix of stereoisomers is often called dl-alpha-tocopheryl acetate, even though it is more precisely dl,dl,dl-alpha-tocopheryl acetate). However, 1 IU of this racemic mixture is not now considered equivalent to 1 IU of natural (RRR) α-tocopherol, and the Institute of Medicine and the USDA now convert IU’s of the racemic mixture to milligrams of equivalent RRR using 1 IU racemic mixture = 0.45 “milligrams α-tocopherol”.

What is (+)-α-tocopherol?
- With the progress of science and technology and the development of society, chemical products have invariably permeated our daily lives, in medicine, food, cosmetics, electronics, industry, and other areas, becoming an essential part of our lives. One such product is (+)-α-tocopherol which has developed particularly rapidly in recent years. Do you know about (+)-α-tocopherol?
- The official answer: (+)-α-tocopherol is a brownish red or transparent light yellow oily liquid with a mild, peculiar odor and taste. It is easily soluble in ethanol, acetone, ether, chloroform, or vegetable oil, and almost insoluble in water. The boiling point is high (250℃), stable to heat. It turns dark red when oxidized by air and light. It has no heat and does not participate in human metabolism.
What’s the application of (+)-α-tocopherol?
- (+)-α-tocopherol is a potent antioxidant that is capable of protecting polyunsaturated fatty acids from oxidative breakdown. This vitamin also functions to enhance vitamin A use. Although several other physiological actions have been suggested, to date no unifying concept exists to explain these actions. (+)-α-tocopherol (α-(+)-α-tocopherol) is found in a variety of foodstuffs, the richest sources being plant oils, including wheat germ and rice, and the lipids of green leaves.
- Physiological functions and effects: (+)-α-tocopherol (VE) includes α, β, δ, γ (+)-α-tocopherols, and corresponding tocotrienols and other 8 substances, belongs to the fat-soluble vitamin, has a variety of important physiological functions such as anti-free radicals, anti-aging, prevention of skin keratinization, improve the physical immune function and cellular immune function of humans and animals, prevention of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, etc. VE has two major sources, (+)-α-tocopherol and synthetic VE. (+)-α-tocopherol is a mixed (+)-α-tocopherol containing a variety of monomers, but (+)-α-tocopherol is better than synthetic VE both in terms of physiological activity and antioxidant capacity, and (+)-α-tocopherol has no toxic side effects on humans, so in the food, nutritional care products, and cosmetics industry, (+)-α-tocopherol is favored by the majority of consumers.
- Deficiency
- Hemolytic anemia. Because very little (+)-α-tocopherol is delivered to the newborn through the placenta, the plasma of newborns or premature infants will have low levels of (+)-α-tocopherol. If the mother is deficient in (+)-α-tocopherol, resulting in insufficient (+)-α-tocopherol in the child will cause the child’s blood cells to break easily and anemia occurs, called hemolytic anemia, and sometimes indirectly cause yellow bile.
- Gastrointestinal discomfort, impotence, edema, skin diseases, muscle weakness.
- Chronic fat malabsorption.
- Hemolysis, my uric acid, brown pigment precipitation in smooth muscle.
- Cystic fibrosis, thrombocytosis, hair loss, dry hair.
- After years of (+)-α-tocopherol deficiency in adults, increased lysis of red blood cells will appear.
- Menstrual disorders, cold hands, and feet due to impaired peripheral blood circulation, frostbite, etc.
- Cold sensation syndrome.

WHY THEY SAY TO US
Read More
Peter has been my partner for many years, we met at the Shanghai CPHI Fair in 2014, for the first time I didn't have much interest in Peter's products because our company had a stable supplier. Although we didn't work together, Peter would often send me important news and interesting trend information about the industry, so we became good friends, even though I didn't place any orders with him during this time, even if it was a sample order. In September 2016, our original supplier was unable to provide us with the quality and delivery guarantees we needed, so I first thought of Peter and his company. Until now, we have maintained a very good personal friendship in addition to a steady business relationship.

In all my years of sourcing from China, I first time to found that working with Sincere Chemical was so good, they helped me with all the production and delivery as well as a lot of technical expertise, which saved me a lot of time. When I first approached Peter for a quotation for Optical Brightener, he made me a detailed quotation with not only prices but also foreign trade details, company profile, company strengths, R&D capabilities, production capacity, packaging methods, raw material control, environmental protection, and much more. This information was a very important reference for me in making purchasing decisions. Sincere Chemical is a trustworthy supplier and I believe our business will grow from strength to strength!

Hi, I'm Kim, I'm Peter's partner and although I don't like him very much (because he never gives me more money for my prices, hahaha) I'm still willing to write him customer feedback. As an international buyer, I have to deal with a lot of things every day and my inbox is often full of development letters. It's a lot of junk and meaningless pleasantries, which I don't like that much, but Peter's emails always give me a better understanding of the product and the industry. I am also very pleased with his work ethic, and I am very happy with his work every time I work with him, not only in providing quotations but also in facilitating all the details of my work so that I can concentrate more on other things, so he is the best supplier for me. Although his prices are not the lowest among all suppliers, his products give me the greatest peace of mind.
