Seamanite named for discoverer Arthur E. Seaman is a rare manganese boron phosphate mineral with formula Mn3[B(OH)4](PO4)(OH)2. The yellow to pink mineral occurs as small needle-shaped crystals. It was first […]

Perfluorohexane (C6F14) or tetradecafluorohexane is a fluorocarbon. It is a derivative of hexane in which all of the hydrogen atoms are replaced by fluorine atoms. It is used in one […]

Hydroxymethylbilane (HMB) also known as preuroporphyrinogen is a molecule involved in the metabolism of porphyrin. In the third step it is generated by the enzyme porphobilinogen deaminase and in the […]

Protoporphyrinogen IX is a precursor for protoporphyrin IX. See Porphyrins for the pathway and more information.

Uroporphyrinogen III is the first cyclic metabolic intermediate in the biosynthesis of heme. The linear precursor hydroxymethylbilane is generated from four porphobilinogen (PBG) molecules by the third enzyme in the […]

In the metabolism of porphyrin the enzyme uroporphyrinogen III decarboxylase generates coproporphyrinogen III from uroporphyrinogen III and coproporphyrinogen III oxidase converts it into protoporphyrinogen IX.

Porphobilinogen (PBG) is a pyrrole involved in porphyrin metabolism.It is generated by aminolevulinate (ALA) and the enzyme ALA dehydratase. PBG is then converted into hydroxymethyl bilane by the enzyme porphobilinogen […]

Cobalt green sometimes known as Rinman’s green or Zinc Green is a translucent green pigment made by heating a mixture of cobalt (II) oxide and zinc oxide. Sven Rinman a […]

Radium bromide is the bromide salt of radium with the formula RaBr2. It is produced during the separation of radium from uranium ore. This inorganic compound was discovered by Pierre […]

3-Aminophenol is a compound with formula C6H4(NH2)(OH). It is an aromatic amine and aromatic alcohol. It is an isomer of 2-aminophenol and 4-aminophenol. It can be prepared by caustic fusion […]
