Photochemistry of hypocrellin derivatives under aerobic conditions

open access: yesChinese Science Bulletin, 2000
To improve the red absorption and solubility of hypocrellin, we have synthesized a series of hypocrellin B derivatives. The photochemistry of these new compounds in anaerobic media has been investigated by using electronic paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and spectrophotometric methods.

Raman spectroscopic study of DNA photodamage sensitized by hypocrellin B and 5-brominated-hypocrellin B

open access: yesChinese Science Bulletin, 1998
Hypocrellin B (HB) is a highly effective photosensitizer. One of its derivatives, 5-brominated-hypocrellin B (5-Br-HB) has better photosensitive characterlstics than it. Using Raman spectroscopy, the microcosmic photodamage to DNA sensitized by HB and 5-Br-HB was studied at molecular level.
