Vitamin K1, also known as phylloquinone, phytomenadione or phytonadione is found in plants & is important for photosynthesis. It is a fat-soluble molecule essential for blood clotting and other physiological processes in humans & other animals. The molecular structure of Vitamin K1 is a 1,4-naphthoquinone ring system with two carbonyl groups (-C=O) at carbons 1 and 4 and a methyl group (CH3) at carbon 2. In addition, a hydrophobic isoprenoid side chain is located at carbon 3 of the naphthoquinone ring which allows integration into lipid membranes.

Indigo Instruments has maintained a substantial inventory of genuine Cochranes of Oxford (Orbit) parts for 30+ years (scroll down to see "Skeletal (Orbit/Minit) and are compatible with every molecular model kit we have sold since day 1. This level of quality may appear expensive but no parts support from other vendors costs even more.

Details

This kit can build the fat soluble essential vitamin K (phytonadione) but you can also construct it, along with other biomolecules, using our Class Biochemistry Set.  Let our free on-line 3D Molecular Model Builder tool show you how it would look in "Orbit-X-peg" style.

Our class organic chemistry set can also build these vitamin chemical structure models. Use the 3D Molecular Model Builder to show you how the same molecular formula would look in "Orbit flexible" style.
