Crocetin (C20) is a yellow (IP)2—(PI)2-derived dicarboxylic, acid (generalized structure -OOG-Gig-GOO-) from the styles of Crocus sativus (Iridaceae) (the saffron of Indian cooking and Buddhist robes). Grocin, the digentiobiose ester of crocetin, is water soluble, unlike other carotenoids which are lipophilic (fat soluble). Crocetin is a protein kinase inhibitor. Excess vitamin A (or excess pro-vitamin A) ingestion is toxic (dog liver consumption having caused the death of Sir Douglas Mawson s explorer companions in the Antarctic by this mechanism).

The stereochemistry of the reaction of ethylenediamine with [Co-(PDTA)] and [Co(EDTA)] , where PDTA and EDTA are propylene-diaminetetraacetate and ethylenediaminetetraacetate, respectively, illustrates the problem of deducing what is meant by an inversion of configuration in multistep processes. Busch, Swaminatham, and Cooke originally interpreted the reaction with [Co(PDTA)] as an inversion reaction and that with [Co(EDTA)] as primarily (2/3) retention. Since the same absolute configurations for these complexes had been subsequently considered of opposite handedness by MacDermott and Sargeson and by Douglas and coworkers, Basolo and Pearson have discussed the same reactions as retention and 2/3 inversion, respectively.
