Abstract

Abstract: A variety of alcoholic type side chains attached at the N-9 position of the isoalloxazine nucleus have been photobleached under anaerobic and aerobic conditions. Anaerobic photolysis in neutral aqueous solution gave primarily two products as ascertained by polarography. One product was alloxazine and the other was an oxygen-sensitive intermediate which must have a ring formed by attachment of the side chain to the ...
