Abstract
As reported previously, the IR spectra of ethylene glycol in Ar and Xe matrices are unstable under IR illumination. Despite this impeding effect, the disappearing bands could be assigned to hydrogen bonded C-C gauche conformers. An assignment of the spectra of the four isotopic species $HO-{CH_{2}}-{CH_{2}}-0H, DO-{CH_{2}}-{CH_{2}}-OD, HO-{CD_{2}}-{CD_{2}}-OH$ and $H^{18}O-CH_{2}-CH_{2}-{^{1}8}OH$ by support of a normal coordinate analysis is presented.
