  Resonant inelastic x-ray scattering at the N K edge reveals clearly resolved
harmonics of the anion plane vibrations in the kappa-(BEDT-TTF)2Cu2(CN)3
spin-liquid insulator. Tuning the incoming light energy at the K edge of two
distinct N sites permits to excite different sets of phonon modes. Cyanide CN
stretching mode is selected at the edge of the ordered N sites which are more
strongly connected to the BEDT-TTF molecules, while positionally disordered N
sites show multi-mode excitation. Combining measurements with calculations on
an anion plane cluster permits to estimate the sitedependent electron-phonon
coupling of the modes related to nitrogen excitation.
