Abstract
Products of the photolysis of 9-anthrone in dioxane are separated by high-performance thin-layer chromatography. The chromatograms are analyzed by chemiluminescent and fluorescent methods. It is established that chemiluminescence that appears during the action of a base on anthrone solutions previously exposed to light is due to the photodimer of anthrol but not to peroxide products of the photolysis. The photodimer is also found in alcoholic extracts of St. John’s wort (Hypericum perforatum).
