In nitrogen-saturated DMSO solution, irradia- tion of chryosphanol (MHAQ) with visible light (>430 nm) produced the semiquinone radical anions (MHAQ??), which was intensified significantly by an electron donor NADH, suggesting electron transfer between the excited and ground state photosensitizer molecules. In an air-saturated DMSO solution, superoxide radical anions (O2 ), trapped by DMPO, were detected. ?? It was proved that O2 was not originated from the singlet oxygen (1O2) but dependent on DMPO, ?? chrysophanol, oxygen and the irradiation time. The singlet oxygen and OH could also be pro- ? duced by the photosensitization of the photosensitizer. These suggest that chrysophanol pos- sesses the photosensitization activity via Type I mechanism and Type II mechanism. To evaluate the photosensitization activities of MHAQ, emodin and mixed anthraquinone derivatives ex- tracted from rheum, the relative productivities of O2 were estimated to be 1.8, 1.1 and 1.0 re- ?? spectively and the quantum yields for singlet oxygen to be 0.36, 0.53 and 0.14 respectively. Therefore, these low-cost pigments may be potentially used as phototherapeutic medicine for some kind of vascular diseases or photo-activated pesticides.展开更多
