The vibrational structure of the S(1)-S(0) electronic band of phenylacetylene has been recorded by 1 + 1 resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization, accompanied by slow electron velocity map imaging photoelectron spectroscopy at each resonant vibrational band. Assignments of the S(1) vibrations (up to 2000 cm(-1) above the band origin) are based upon the relative intensities of the vibronic bands calculated by complete second-order vibronic coupling, vibration-rotation (Coriolis and Birss) coupling calculations, and the vibrational structure of the S(1) resonant photoelectron spectra. Although this is an allowed electronic transition, the relative intensities of the a(1) bands are often largely determined by vibronic coupling rather than simple Franck-Condon factors, and second-order coupling is substantial. Nonsymmetric vibrations have intensities obtained through either vibronic or Coriolis coupling, and the calculations have been instrumental in discriminating between alternate possibilities in the assignments. Strong vibronic effects are expected to be present in the spectra of most monosubstituted benzenes, and the calculations presented here show that theoretical treatments based upon electronic structure calculations will generally be useful in the analysis of their spectra.
