Antiviral Activities of Photoactive Perylenequinones

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, 1997
AbstractNine perylenequinones (PQ), including some familiar naturally occurring pigments, were compared for their light‐mediated antiviral efficacies. Calphostin C was the most active compound against the two target viruses, herpes simplex virus type 1 and Sindbis virus. Hypo‐crellins A and B were also very active.

Perylenequinones from Curvularia lunata

Biochemical Systematics and Ecology, 2020
Three perylenequinones, the methylated 12-epi-stemphytriol (1), dihydroalterperylenol (2), and alterperylenol (3), were isolated from cultures of Curvularia lunata (LBQM-04) on malt extract broth.

Naturally occurring perylenequinones.

open access: yesFortschritte der Chemie organischer Naturstoffe = Progress in the chemistry of organic natural products. Progres dans la chimie des substances organiques naturelles, 1987
Perylenequinones, together with a few compounds containing a partially reduced perylene skeleton, form a relatively small but rapidly increasing group of chemically interesting, biologically active pigments obtainable from natural sources.

Biosynthesis of Natural and Unnatural Perylenequinones for Drug Development

ChemMedChem
A wide range of perylenequinones (PQs) with diverse structures and versatile bioactivities have long been isolated, positioning them as highly promising agents for photodynamic therapy (PDT). However, the lack of an efficient and cost‐effective method to

Photodynamic Perylenequinones, Photodemethylation and Photooxidation of Dimethylcercosporin

open access: yesLiebigs Annalen der Chemie, 1992
AbstractRegiospecific photodemethylation of the perylenequinone dimethylcercosporin (DMC0 (2) in methanol involved the two methoxy groups in ortho position to the carbonyl quinone functions, affording 2,11‐dihydroxy‐3,10‐perylenequinone (3) and the dihydrofuran‐containing derivative 4.

Some Synthetic Studies Related to Perylenequinones

Liebigs Annalen Der Chemie, 1993
AbstractTwo closely related routes to dimethyl 3,10‐dihydro‐2,11‐dihydroxy‐4,6,7,9‐tetramethoxy‐3,10‐dioxo‐1,12‐perylenediacetate (10), one involving Ullmann phenol coupling and the other by double oxidative coupling are described. Regioselective demethylation of 10 followed by methylation or vice versa yields dimethyl 3,10‐dihydro‐4,9‐dihydroxy‐2,6,7 ...

NMR study of tautomerism in natural perylenequinones

open access: yesJournal of the Chemical Society, Perkin Transactions 2, 1993
The keto–enol tautomerism of the dihydroxyperylenequinone system of a number of natural compounds, cercosporin 1, isocercosporin 2, phleichrome 3, isophleichrome 4, elsinochromes 5–9, cladochrome C 10, and hypocrellin 11 was studied by 1H, 2H and 13C NMR spectroscopy.

Photophysics, photochemistry, and reactivity: Molecular aspects of perylenequinone reactions

open access: yesPhotochemical & Photobiological Sciences, 2007
Density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) were used to elucidate the photochemistry and photophysics of eight different perylenequinones (PQ). The objective of this work has been to quantitatively investigate the photodynamic therapeutic potential of this family of compounds and give an overview of their ...
