%0 Journal Article %T Photo-induced reactions of sulfonated aluminum phthalocyanine with peptide %A Run¡¯an Dong %A Yong Qiu %A Xinqi Song %J Chinese Science Bulletin %@ 1861-9541 %D 1999 %I %R 10.1007/BF02977881 %X The photosensitized oxidation mechanism of peptide in the presence of the CIAlPcS is studied by UV-Vis spectroscopic method. It is found that the oxidation of peptide is totally quenched in 1.1 ¡Á 10 2 molk NaN3 solution, and the same reaction cannot proceed in the dark. K3Fe(CN)6 and L-Cys cannot quench the reaction. Therefore, the reaction mechanism is mainly Foote¡¯s type II. This reaction process can be inferred as follows: (i) active oxygen can attack acylamide bond near by carbon atom; (ii) carboxyl group departs from peptide; (iii) I-benzazole cycle is destroyed when reaction is continued; (iv) the peptide is completely damaged. %K sulfonated aluminum phthalocyanine %K peptide %K photosensitized oxidation %U http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/BF02977881
