We evaluated the effects of vitamin E and beta-carotene on apolipoprotein (apo)E +/- female mice, which develop atherosclerosis only when fed diets high in triglyceride and cholesterol. Mice were fed a nonpurified control diet (5.3 g/100 g triglyceride, 0.2 g/100

With use of inexpensive commercially available raw materials, chromanmethanol precursors to the natural beta-, gamma-, and delta-tocotrienols have been prepared in high yield. Enzymatic resolution afforded chiral chromanmethanols in high enantiomeric excess. Subsequent attachment of the farnesyl side chain was
