Generation of Reactive Oxygen Species during the Photolysis of 6-(Hydroxymethyl)pterin in Alkaline Aqueous Solutions
Photochemical studies of the reactivity of 6-(hydroxymethyl)pterin (=2-amino-6-(hydroxymethyl)pteridin-4(1H)-one; HPT) in alkaline aqueous solutions (pH 10.2-10.8) at 350 nm and room temperature were performed. The photochemical reactions were followed by UV/VIS spectrophotometry, thin-layer chromat...
