Α-tocopherol phosphate as a photosensitizer in the reaction of nucleosides with uv light: formation of 5,6-dihydrothymidine

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Toshinori Suzuki from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the article: u03b1-Tocopherol phosphate as a photosensitizer in the reaction of nucleosides with UV light: formation of 5,6-dihydrothymidine, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
• what: The authors show that u03b1-TP is a photosensitzer on the reaction of nucleosides by UV irradiation at wavelengths longer than 300 nm and that the major products from dThd are diastereomers of 5,6-dihydrothymidine (DHdThd).
• future: Studies are needed to clarify the total reaction mechanism generating DHdThd from dThd by UV irradiation in the presence of u03b1 . . .
