The vibration--rotation and pure rotational Raman spectra of H/sub 2/, HD, and D/sub 2/ trapped in Ar, Kr, and Xe matrices have been recorded at 9 K. The frequencies which have been measured within an accuracy of 0.3 cm/sup -1/ are compared to the results of recent calculations. Except for the S/sub 0/(0) line of HD the agreement between observed and calculated matrix shifts is satisfactory. The anomalous blue shift observed for the S/sub 0/(0) line of HD is well interpreted within the rotation translation coupling (RTC) framework.
