The chemical structure of chlorophyll looks a bit like protoheme. That's the red part of our hemoglobin, the part of red blood cells that carries oxygen in our blood.

THE structure of chlorophyll is known in considerable detail. The correct gross structure was put forward by Hans Fischer1 and confirmed in a beautiful synthesis by R. B. Woodward2,3; the relative ...

Inspired by this natural structure, scientists have explored ways to synthetically assemble chlorophyll-based structures for applications in optoelectronics and renewable energy.

Another method for helping chlorophyll remain green is to replace the precariously situated magnesium ion with other multivalent cations that are more difficult for hydrogen to displace.

The structure of chlorophyll is similar to that of hemoglobin, the protein in your blood that carries oxygen to your tissues. So, it's sometimes also called “green blood. ...
