31. Though we have no evidence that porphyrinogen is quantitatively converted to porphyrin, the yield must be quite high. An 80% overall yield was reported for the series of manipulations including catalytic reduction of a porphyrin to form the porphyrinogen, DDQ oxidation to give the porphyrin, chromatography, and crystallization.
