Abstract: | Divinyl-132,173-cyclopheophorbide-a enol was in vivo produced as a metabolite of divinyl-chlorophyll-a by protists and in vitro prepared by the intramolecular cyclization of methyl divinyl-pyropheophorbide-a, one of the divinyl-chlorophyll-a derivatives. The 1H NMR spectra in CDCl3 showed that the obtained product took exclusively its enol form in the solution. The intramolecular cyclization of chlorin π-system at the C132 and C173 positions affected the optical properties of such chlorophyll derivatives including the non-fluorescent emission of the enol. |
