The absorption spectrum of nitrosobenzene isolated in solid Ar was studied up to an energy of 45,000 cm-1. In this medium a previously unreported vibrational structure could be resolved for the 1st UV band with origin at 30,260 cm-1. This band is assigned to the S0 -> S2 transition. After numerical resoln. enhancement with the max. entropy method this vibrational structure could be analyzed in terms of progressions and combinations of 5 modes. Line shape anal. of the origin band reveals a superposition of Lorentzian lines with a width of 64 cm-1, corresponding to a lifetime of the upper electronic state t(S2) ~ 80 fs. The lines are either matrix sites or due to a low-frequency mode. Attempts of spectral hole burning at the electronic origin lead to partial bleaching of the spectrum, which is reversible on a time scale of 20 min. Excitation with an excess energy of 2200 cm-1 leads to fragmentation into NO and a Ph radical, which recombine only after annealing of the matrix >30 K.
