Chlorin description |
---|
In organic chemistry, a chlorin is a large heterocyclic aromatic ring consisting, at the core, of three pyrroles and one pyrroline coupled through four =CH- linkages. Unlike porphin, the central aromatic ring structure of porphyrins, a chlorin is largely aromatic but not aromatic through the entire circumference of the ring.Magnesium-containing chlorins are called chlorophylls, and are the central photosensitive pigment in chloroplasts. * Related compounds, with two pyrroles and two pyrrolines (which are like pyrroles with one double bond reduced to a single bond) in the macrocycle are called bacteriochlorins and isobacteriochlorins.* Because of their photosensitivity, chlorins are in active use as photosensitizing agents in experimental photodynamic therapy. * * |
