Abstract: In this paper,ESR,spin trapping and spin counteraction are used to study the photosensitization of hypocrellin A(HA) and cercosporin(CP) in homogeneous and heterogeneous systems separately. The relative yields of 1O2,anion radical,O2·-and·OH,produced during photosensitization,are determined,It is found that in homogeneous system,HA is a littie more active than CP,which indicates that side chain has little effect on the activity of photosensitization and in heterogeneous system,due to stronger protective effect of micelle on excited state of HA,the activity of HA is much higer than that of CP.

Key words: hypocrellin A, cercosporin, ESR, spin trapping, spin counteraction, photosensitivity, TX-100 micelle
