dehydro- before a vowel also dehydr-. Chem.|diːˈhaɪdrəʊ| A prefix used in forming the names of some organic compounds, denoting (a) the loss of one atom of hydrogen (or freq. two), (b) the loss of a molecule of water (= anhydro-); as dehydrotriacetonamine; deˌhydroaˈscorbic acid, an oxidation product, C6H6O6, of ascorbic acid; deˌhydrochoˈlesterol [ad. G. dehydro-cholesteryl (A. Windaus et al. 1935, in Ann. Chem. DXX. 106)], the provitamin, C27H44O, of vitamin D3, naturally formed in human and animal skin under the influence of sunlight.

Cataract 365 Present evidence would seem to indicate that it [sc. ascorbic acid] is actively secreted [by the ciliary body] in the nonionized, oxidized form, dehydroascorbic acid. 1965Nomencl. Org. Chem. (I.U.P.A.C.) C. 42 Loss of two hydrogen atoms from a compound designated by a trivial name is denoted by a prefix ‘didehydro-’... In common usage ‘dehydro-’ is often used in place of ‘didehydro-’. For example the above compound [sc. 7, 8-didehydrocholesterol] is often termed dehydrocholesterol. 1968R. S. Cahn Introd. Chem. Nomencl. (ed. 3) iii. 44 Removal of atoms is indicated in a few cases, e.g., dehydro (loss of 2H), anhydro (loss of H2O). |
