CHIMIA, 2011 This short review intends to present some key facts on carotenoids in a popular scientific language on the occasion of the International Year of Chemistry. Carotenoids have a characteristic C40H56 structure and represent a market value of several hundred million Euros. Their chemical synthesis is still a demanding challenge for chemists.

Twisted carotenoids do not support efficient intramolecular singlet fission in the orange carotenoid protein [PDF]
, 2022 Singlet exciton fission is the spin-allowed generation of two triplet electronic excited states from a singlet state. Intramolecular singlet fission has been suggested to occur on individual carotenoid molecules within protein complexes, provided the conjugated backbone is twisted out-of-plane.
