Description

Porphine (also called porphin) is a planar aromatic heterocyclic compound with a 12-carbon outside ring and four embedded pyrrole rings. It is a dark red crystalline solid that is soluble in some polar solvents such as pyridine and dioxane. It can be heated to 360 ºC without melting. Porphine is the parent compound of a family of biologically and chemically relevant compounds called porphyrins. The potential of these compounds is enormous and it would be advantageous to use the porphine (porphy


Porphyrin is a member of porphyrins and a tetrapyrrole fundamental parent. It has a role as a metabolite.
