The difference is that porphyrin is (organic chemistry) any of a class of heterocyclic compounds containing four pyrrole rings arranged in a square; they are important in biochemistry in a form with a metal atom in the central cavity (hemoglobin with iron, chlorophyll with magnesium, etc) while porphyrinogen is (biochemistry) a reduced form of porphyrin that is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of heme.
