It is shown by ESR method that 8-methoxypsoralen (8-MOP) under low temperature UV-irradiation has no influence on free radical formation of saturated fatty acids (FA). Under the same conditions the quantum yield of free radical photogeneration for unsaturated FA (oleate and limolenate) after addition of 8-MOP increased 7.5-15 times. The ESR spectrum of free radicals generated after interaction of 8-MOP with polyunsaturated FA, may be presented as superposition of signals-CH-(CH = CH)2-, -CH2CHCH2- and -CH2CH2. The molecular mechanism of photosensitized reactions is discussed.
