IUPAC Name: 1,3,4,6,8,15-hexahydroxy-10,13-dimethyldibenzo[a,o]perylene-7,16-dione
InChIKey: YLILOANQCQKPOD-UHFFFAOYSA-N
SMILES: O=C(C1=C(O)C=C(C)C=C1C2=C34)C3=C(O)C=C(O)C4=C5C(O)=CC(O)=C6C(C7=C(O)C=C(C)C=C7C2=C65)=O
Biological Activity: Protohypericin is a compound that can be extracted from Hypericum perforatum. Protohypericin has low photocytotoxicity but can be efficiently photoconverted into Hypericin (HY-N0453) with high phototoxicity under visible light. Protohypericin can be used in cancer research[1][2][3][4].
