Alpha-tocopherol is the primary form of vitamin E that is preferentially used by the human body to meet appropriate dietary requirements. In particular, the RRR-alpha-tocopherol (or sometimes called the d-alpha-tocopherol stereoisomer) stereoisomer is considered the natural formation of alpha-tocopherol and generally exhibits the greatest bioavailability out of all of the alpha-tocopherol stereoisomers. The directory classifies it as a commercial API with a semi-synthetic source/manufacturing origin. Other names for this substance include Covitol 1210 and vitamin e succinate. Its PubChem CID is 20353.
