4′-Aminomethyltrioxsalen hydrochloride is a psoralen compound. Psoralens are a subset of furocoumarins, which have the ability to absorb ultraviolet (UV) light, making them photosensitive agents. Psoralens intercalate with DNA, and upon exposure to UVA light (320–400 nm), they can form covalent bonds with the pyrimidine bases of DNA. If efficiency is high, double substitution and bridging will occur. The "4′-aminomethyl" modification can influence the compound′s binding affinity and specificity to DNA, potentially altering its photobiological activity. The hydrochloride salt form improves the solubility of the compound in water, which is beneficial for biological research applications.
