Usage

Explanation

The compound's full name, which describes its structure and functional groups.

Explanation

The compound belongs to the porphyrin family, which is a group of organic macrocyclic compounds with diverse applications in biology and materials science.

Explanation

The compound is a derivative of porphine, which is a simple porphyrin molecule without any substituents.

Explanation

The compound has a vinyl group (ethenyl) at the 12th position and four methyl groups at the 3rd, 8th, 13th, and 17th positions.

Explanation

The compound has three propanoic acid groups attached to the 2nd, 7th, and 18th positions of the porphyrin ring.

Explanation

Porphyrins, including this compound, are known for their role in biological processes, such as being part of the active site in hemoglobin (oxygen transport in blood) and chlorophyll (photosynthesis in plants).

Explanation

The compound can form complexes with certain metal ions and be used to selectively target cancer cells for destruction when exposed to light, making it a potential candidate for photodynamic therapy.

Explanation

Due to its unique electronic properties, the compound may have applications in the field of organic electronics.

Explanation

The molecular formula of the compound, which represents the number of carbon (C), hydrogen (H), nitrogen (N), and oxygen (O) atoms in the molecule.

Explanation

The molecular weight of the compound, which is the sum of the atomic weights of all the atoms in the molecule.

Explanation

The compound has a macrocyclic structure, which is a large ring formed by connecting multiple smaller molecules or atoms.

Explanation

The presence of carbon atoms with four different substituents (e.g., the 12th position with an ethenyl group) suggests the potential for chiral centers in the molecule, which can lead to different stereoisomers.

Revisiting the Mechanism of the Anaerobic Coproporphyrinogen III Oxidase HemN

HemN is a radical S-adenosyl-l-methionine (SAM) enzyme that catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of coproporphyrinogen III to produce protoporphyrinogen IX, an intermediate in heme biosynthesis. HemN binds two SAM molecules in the active site, but how these two SAMs are utilized for the sequential decarboxylation of the two propionate groups of coproporphyrinogen III remains largely elusive. Provided here is evidence showing that in HemN catalysis a SAM serves as a hydrogen relay which mediates a radical-based hydrogen transfer from the propionate to the 5′-deoxyadenosyl (dAdo) radical generated from another SAM in the active site. Also observed was an unexpected shunt product resulting from trapping of the SAM-based methylene radical by the vinyl moiety of the mono-decarboxylated intermediate, harderoporphyrinogen. These results suggest a major revision of the HemN mechanism and reveal a new paradigm of the radical-mediated hydrogen transfer in radical SAM enzymology.

Normal and abnormal heme biosynthesis. 6. Synthesis and metabolism of a series of monovinylporphyrinogens related to harderoporphyrinogen. further insights into the oxidative decarboxylation of porphyrinogen substrates by coproporphyrinogen oxidase

A series of vinylporphyrinogens were prepared to probe the enzyme coproporphyrinogen oxidase (CPO). Six (2-chloroethyl)porphyrins were synthesized from a common dipyrrylmethane via a,c-biladiene intermediates in excellent yields. Subsequent dehydrohalogen
