Let me put it to Professor Lehn that biology can do better than he can with small molecules. From uroporphyrin biology makes (1) copper porphyrins (turacin feathers), (2) heme (iron) porphyrins, (3) magnesium chlorins, (4) cobalt corrins (B12). These compounds are formed with very little confusion between metals and partners. I cannot give selectivity factors, but they are very big. How is this managed Is it not better than man can do Maximum size selectivity for anions is not yet understood as few anion-binding sites in biology are known. 

NOTE All values are given as weight percent ( 95% confidence limit). Sulfate and chloride were analyzed by ion chromatography carbonate was analyzed by classical titration and calcium, magnesium, chlorine, aluminum, and sodium were analyzed by neutron activation analysis. 

Write the Lewis symbols for carbon, magnesium, chlorine, and arsenic. 

AKRO-ZINC BAR 85 (1314-13-2) Incompatible with linseed oil, magnesium, chlorinated rubber (at 419°F/215°C). Slowly decomposed by water. 

Fig. 3. Molecular structures of free-base porphine, free-base chlorin, and Et-Pheo-a. Structures of the respective magnesium analogs, magnesium porphine, magnesium chlorin, and Et-Chl-a, are obtained by replacement of the NH hydrogen atoms by a magnesium atom at the center of the macrocycle (Reprinted with permission)...

The experimental spectra of magnesium chlorin, free-base chlorin, Et-Chl-a, Et-Pheo-a, Et-BChl-a, and Et-BPheo-a are shown in Fig. 7, 8, and 9. It is seen that these spectra possess a distinct Soret band as do the porphyrins, but the lowest visible band in these spectra is characteristically much more intense than in porphyrins. In terms of the 4-orbital model, it is expected that there will be increased splittings between both orbitals 1 and 2, and 1 and 2. This in turn is expected to increase significantly the contribution of the (1 - 1 ) relative to the (2 - 2 ) configuration in the composition of the Qy excited state (Fig. 6). Consequently, there will be less cancellation between the contributions of the two configurations to the transition dipole, and the resultant transition dipole will be larger than those in the porphyrins. 

Fig. 7. Calculated and experimental absorption spectra of magnesium chlorin (upper) and free-base chlorin (lower). Locations of calculated excited singlet states are given m terms of estimated transition energies from Eq. (1 l),/is the calculated oscillator strength, and calculated polarizations are given in parentheses, relative to the axes in Fig. 3 (Reprinted with permission)...

The oxidation numbers of magnesium, chlorine, hydrogen and oxygen remain unchanged at +2, -1, +1 and -2. Acid-base reactions are therefore not redox reactions. 

Modern industry could not function in its present form without electrolysis reactions. A number of elements are produced almost exclusively by electrolysis—for example, aluminum, magnesium, chlorine, and fluorine. Among chemical compounds produced industrially by electrolysis are NaOH, K2Cr2, KMn04, Na2S20g, and a number of organic compounds.
