Metal halide perovskites (MHPs) are emerging as promising candidates for spintronic applications. In MHPs which lack inversion symmetry, strong spin-orbit coupling induces the Rashba-Dresselhaus effect, allowing spin current control. Here we use intense THz fields to coherently drive lattice dynamics in Ruddlesden-Popper 2D layered perovskites. We identify simultaneous IR and Raman activity of specific inorganic cage modes, suggesting the presence of inversion symmetry breaking despite the globally centrosymmetric crystal structure. By exploring the driving pathways of coherent phonons bearing the signatures of broken inversion symmetry, we lay the groundwork for simultaneous ultrafast control of optoelectronic and spintronic properties in 2D MHPs.
