Tailoring flavins for visible light photocatalysis: organocatalytic [2+2] cycloadditions mediated by a flavin derivative and visible light.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new application of flavin derivatives in visible light photocatalysis was found. 1-Butyl-7,8-dimethoxy-3-methylalloxazine, when irradiated by visible light, was shown to allow an efficient cyclobutane ring formation via an intramolecular [2+2] cycloaddition of both styrene dienes, considered as electron-rich substrates, and electron-poor bis(arylenones), presumably proceeding via an energy transfer mechanism.

Enhanced photocatalytic activity of a self-stabilized synthetic flavin anchored on a TiO2 surface
Synthetic flavin molecules were anchored on Degussa P25 titanium dioxide (TiO2). The effect of their presence on the photocatalytic (PC) activity of TiO2 was studied. Under UV light, an increase in the degradation rate of ethanol was observed. This increase was accompanied by stabilization of the anchored flavin against self-degradation. The unprecedented stabilization effect was found also in ...

متن کاملRole of Visible Light-Activated Photocatalyst on the Reduction of Anthrax Spore-Induced Mortality in Mice
BACKGROUND Photocatalysis of titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) substrates is primarily induced by ultraviolet light irradiation. Anion-doped TiO(2) substrates were shown to exhibit photocatalytic activities under visible-light illumination, relative environmentally-friendly materials. Their anti-spore activity against Bacillus anthracis, however, remains to be investigated. We evaluated these visible-l...
متن کاملInteraction of bacterial luciferase with 8-substituted flavin mononucleotide derivatives.
Bacterial luciferase catalyzes the emission of visible light from the reaction of reduced flavin, molecular oxygen, and an n-alkyl aldehyde. The mechanism of the reaction was probed by measuring the electronic effects of various substituents at the 8-position of the flavin ring system. Substituent effects were obtained for CH3-, Cl-, CH3O-, CH3S-, F-, and H- on the rate of formation and decay o...
