Description
The very low ionization potentials of porphyrins lead to the prediction that in addition to bands due to (π,πsup(*)) transitions, bands due to Rydberg transitions should exist in their visible spectra. The suggestion is made that Rydberg excited states could be important in photosynthesis. (orig.)
