— Hydrophilic products of chlorophyll a photodegradation are structurally identified using UV/visible and fourier transform infrared spectrophotometry and gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry. The major peak detected during reverse‐phase high performance liquid chromatography of the colourless photodegradation products is identified as glycerol. Lactic, citric, succinic and malonic acids, as well as alanine, are also identified.
