Abstrakt: An N‐centered epimeric mixture of chlorophyll‐a derivatives methylated at the inner nitrogen atom was separated by reverse‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography. Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopic analyses of the epimerically pure N22‐methyl‐chlorins revealed that the minor first‐eluted and major second‐eluted stereoisomers were (22S)‐ and (22R)‐configurations, respectively. Their visible absorption and CD spectra in solution were dependent on the N22‐stereochemistry. The epimer‐dependent spectral changes were independent of the substituents at the peripheral 3‐position of the core chlorin chromophore. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
