FURTHER EVIDENCE OF THE RELATION BETWEEN 2-DESVINYL-2-FORMYL-CHLOROPHYLL-aAND CHLOROPHYLL-d

Abstract
2-Desvinyl-2-formyl-chlorophyll-a (made by permanganate oxidation of chlorophyll-a) and chlorophyll-d (isolated from Gigartina papillata) were compared. They possessed identical visible absorption spectra, formed reduction derivatives with identical spectra, and chromatographed as a single zone on a sugar column. These results provide further evidence that chlorophyll-d is 2-desvinyl-2-formyl-chlorophyll-a. Certain thalli of G. papillata yielded chlorophyll-d while others yielded none. All thalli of Rhodomela larix yielded chlorophyll-d but in extremely small amounts.
