Textbook Question

Chapter 14, Problem 91TE

Many of the natural product molecules synthesized by photosynthetic plants are formed by the

joining together of isoprene monomers via an addition polymerization. A good example is th

nutrient beta-carotene. How many isoprene units are needed to make one beta-carotene

molecule? (Hint: Count the carbons in each.) Find and circle these units within the beta-carotene

structure shown here.

Chapter 14, Problem 91TE, Many of the natural product molecules synthesized by photosynthetic plants are formed by the joining

Definition Definition Chemical process in which one or more monomers combine to produce a very large chain-like molecule called a polymer. The functional groups present on the monomers and their steric effects are responsible for polymerization through a sequence of reactions that vary in complexity. There exists a stable covalent chemical bond between monomers that sets apart polymerization from other processes.
