Abstract: Highlights: [•] Spectral characteristics of porphyrins are affected by solvent polarizability. [•] Ground state dipole moments of porphyrins are found to be very low. [•] Solvatochromic Stokes’ shift method is used to find excited state dipole moment. [•] The first excited singlet state of porphyrins possesses moderate dipole moments. [•] Other properties of porphyrins are nearly insensitive to solvent polarity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
