Abstract

Using quantum chemistry computations TDDFT//B3LYP/6-31G(d), we study resonance Raman spectra of the Q band for meso-tetrakis(3,5-di-tertiarybutylphenyl)-porphyrin (H2TBPP) molecule due to the Franck-Condon and non-Condon mechanisms including the Herzberg-Teller and second-order Herzberg-Teller terms. Generally, the Herzberg-Teller terms are large. However, for some vibrational modes, the second-order Herzberg-Teller terms are the strongest and dominate resonance Raman spectra, which may also impact on fluorescence and absorption spectra. Hence, the Taylor expansion of the electric dipole transition moment with respect to the normal coordinates at the equilibrium structure of the ground electronic state may not converge for H2TBPP. A method to solve this problem is suggested.
