✦ Synopsis
Dedicated to Professor Dr. Andre¬ M. Braun on the occasion of his 60th birthday 6-formylpterin solutions at pH 11 were photolyzed at 350 nm at room temperature. The photochemical reactions were followed by UV/VIS spectrophotometry, thin layer chromatography (TLC), and highperformance liquid chromatography (HPLC). In the presence of oxygen, 6-carboxypterin is the only photoproduct detected by the analytical techniques mentioned. In the absence of oxygen, a new compound showing an absorbance maximum at 480 nm is observed. The latter compound is thermally oxidized very fast in the presence of oxygen to 6-carboxypterin. The quantum yields of substrate disappearance and of photoproduct formation are reported
