A comprehensive anharmonic vibrational analysis of isotopic ketenes has been performed on the basis of a complete ab initio quartic force field constructed by means of second‐order Møller–Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) and the coupled‐cluster singles and doubles (CCSD) approach, augmented for structural optimizations by a contribution for connected triple excitations [CCSD(T)]. The atomic‐orbital basis sets of the study entailed C,O(10s6p/5s4p) and H(6s/4s) spaces multiply polarized in the valence region to give QZ(2d,2p) and QZ(2d1f,2p1d) sets. An iterative anharmonic vibrational refinement of a limited set of quadratic scaling parameters on 27 fundamentals of H2CCO, HDCCO, D2CCO, and H2C13CO generates a final quartic force field which reproduces the empirical νi data with an average absolute error of only 1.1 cm−1. This force field yields a complete and self‐consistent set of Coriolis (ζij), vibrational anharmonic (χij), vibration–rotation interaction (αi), and quartic and sextic centrifugal distortion constants, providing a critical assessment of the assorted spectroscopic constants determined over many years and also facilitating future computations of vibrational state densities for detailed tests of unimolecular dissociation theories.The harmonic frequencies ascertained for H2CCO (in cm−1), with associated anharmonicities in parentheses, are ω1(a1)=3202.2(−129.2), ω2(a1)=2197.2(−44.4), ω3(a1)=1415.2(−25.9), ω4(a1)=1146.0(−29.7), ω5(b1)=581.9(+7.1), ω6(b1)=502.6(+26.3), ω7(b2)=3308.2(−141.3), ω8(b2)=996.0(−17.9), and ω9(b2)=433.6(+5.0). The large positive anharmonicity for the ν6(b1) C=C=O bending mode, which is principally a Coriolis effect, warrants continued investigation. Explicit first‐order treatments of the strong Fermi interactions within the (ν4,2ν5,ν5+ν6,2ν6) manifold reveal resonance shifts for ν4(H2CCO, HDCCO, D2CCO) of (−12.1, −10.0, +12.2) cm−1, in order. The experimental assignments for this Fermi tetrad are confirmed to be problematic. From high‐precision empirical rotational constants of six isotopomers and the theoretical anharmonic force field, the equilibrium structure of ketene is derived: re(C=O)=1.160 30(29) Å, re(C=C)=1.312 12(30) Å, re(C–H)=1.075 76(7) Å, and θe(H–C–H)=121.781(12)°. A natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis shows that the unusually large methylene angle is attributable to extensive in‐plane π delocalization.
