Prolycopene, a Naturally Occurring Stereoisomer of Lycopene [PDF]
, 1941 In this paper we record the observation that there occurs in the variety of tomato called "tangerine tomato" a carotenoid, prolycopene, which is an isomer of lycopene; the isomeric relationship is similar to that between lycopene and neolycopene,I and in
