The WebWare molecules this month are from the article "Photochemotherapy: Light-Dependent Therapies in Medicine" by Edward P. Zovinka and Danielle R. Suneri. The first is a simple porphine, illustrating the ubiquitous four-nitrogen macrocycle, while the second is the protoporphyrin found in heme systems. Additional versions of these and other molecules from this article are available at JCE WebWare.
