Anomalous intensity ratios in the excitation protides of vibronicaiIy active fundamentals in the Q-band of porphyrins are shown to be due to interference between intramanifold (J&n-Teller) coupling with the Q and B bands, intermanifold (Herzberg-Teller) coupling between the Q and B bands. and electr

โฆ Synopsis
Novel features in the resonance Raman spectra of metalloporphyrins are predicted to ensue via the recently revealed crossquadralic nuclear potential terms involving modes of different symmetry_ Such terms were shown to prevail in the doubly degenerate excited electronic states corresponding to the visible and UV bands of these molecular systems.
I _ Introduction
The existence of non-vanishing cross-quadratic vibronic terms involving modes of different symmetry in the nuclear potential of degenerate electronic states of non-linear molecules and their importance have been recently recognized and discussed in detail by the author [l--3] *_ It has been shown that in electronic transitions involving degenerate electronic states the following spectroscopic effects may result via these cross-quadratic terms: (a) Prominent vibronic progressions of potentially Jahn-Teller (JT) active modes may arise even in the absence of JT distor-

Of the 53 Raman active bands of A 1, E' 2, and E~ symmetries, 25 are observed in resonance Raman spectra of C7o in benzene; excitation responses from 457.9 to 514.5 nm show that A-term, B-term, and probably D-term scattering mechanisms operate and assist in the assignment of the electronic spectrum.
