title: Chlorin
text: In organic chemistry, chlorins are tetrapyrrole pigments that are partially hydrogenated porphyrins. The parent chlorin is an unstable compound which undergoes air oxidation to porphine.

The term "chlorin" strictly speaking refers to only compounds with the same ring oxidation state as chlorophyll. Chlorins are excellent photosensitizing agents. Various
