SMILES: CC1=C2[N-]3[Mg+2]45[N]6=C(C=C7[N-]4C(C(C=C)=C7C)=CC8=[N]5C(C(CC)=C8C=O)=C2)[C@@H](C)[C@H](CCC(OC/C=C(C)/CCC[C@H](C)CCC[C@H](C)CCCC(C)C)=O)C6=C9C3=C1C([C@@H]9C(OC)=O)=O
Biological Activity: Chlorophyll b is an orally active tetrapyrrole derivative and pigment. Chlorophyll b can be obtained from photosynthetic organisms such as plants and algae. Chlorophyll b acts as a hydrogen donor and increases Glutathione levels. Chlorophyll b has antioxidant activity and functionally replaces chlorophyll a in photosystem II to participate in photosynthesis. Chlorophyll b reduces Cisplatin (HY-17394)-induced DNA damage, chromosome instability, and oxidative stress. Chlorophyll b is mainly used in the study of plant photosynthesis mechanism[1][2][3].
