We present a viable protocol to compute vibrational resonance Raman (vRR) spectra for systems with several close-lying and potentially coupled electronic states. It is based on the parametrization of linear vibronic coupling (LVC) models from time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations and quantum dynamics propagations of vibronic wavepackets with the multilayer version of the multiconfiguration time-dependent Hartree (ML-MCTDH) method. Our approach is applied to thymine considering seven coupled electronic states, comprising the three lowest bright states, and all vibrational coordinates. Computed vRR at different excitation wavelengths are in good agreement with the available experimental data. Up to 250 nm the signal is dominated by the lowest HOMO → LUMO transition, whereas at 233 nm, in the valley between the two lowest energy absorption bands, the contributions of all the three bright states, and their interferences and couplings, are important. Inclusion of solvent (water) effects improves the agreement with experiment, reproducing the coalescence of vibrational bands due to CC and C═O stretchings. With our approach we disentangle and assess the effect of interferences between the contribution of different quasi-resonant states to the transition polarizability and the effect of interstate couplings. Our findings strongly suggest that in cases of close-lying and potentially coupled states a simple inclusion of interference effects is not sufficient, and a fully nonadiabatic computation should instead be performed. We also document that for systems with strong couplings and quasi-degenerate states, the use of HT perturbative approach, not designed for these cases, may lead to large artifacts.
