Human drug metabolites (HDMs) are important chemicals widely used in drug-related studies. However, acquiring these enzyme-derived and regio-/stereo-selectively modified compounds through chemical approaches is complicated. PikC is a biosynthetic P450 enz

Photochemical degradation of chloroquine (CQ) as a function of pH was studied in order to obtain information on the photoreactivity of both the dicationic and the monocationic form of CQ. The photodecomposition rate was strongly dependent on the state of ionization of CQ. The main degradation product formed from the monocationic form of CQ was identified as a dimerization product, confirmed by mass-spectrometry (EI, and high resolution MS). Formation of the secondary amine DesCQ was detected for both the dicationic and the monocationic form of CQ. Oxygen is probably not directly involved in the main reaction(s) leading to photolysis of CQ. In the monocationic form CQ is a source of superoxide ions and hydroxyl radicals during irradiation, whereas in the dicationic form, formation of such radicals could not be detected. Under the experimental conditions used, no photodechlorination of CQ could be detected. Reactions performed in the darkness showed that monocationic CQ was susceptible to attack by hydroxyl radicals and superoxide ions. Decomposition of the dicationic form of CQ could not be detected under the same experimental conditions.
