Chemical Synthetic Platform for Chlorpromazine Oligomers That Were Reported as Photo-degradation Products of Chlorpromazine.

A synthetic platform for chlorpromazine (CPZ) oligomers, which could be generated via photo-reaction of CPZ, is essential to promote their biological and structural studies. In this paper, the first synthetic platform for CPZ oligomers is described. A photo-irradiation experiment of CPZ to confirm whether the structure of the CPZ dimer generated by the photo-irradiation was identical to that prepared by our synthetic method is also reported.
