Torsional states caused by vibrations of hydroxyl groups in the methanediol molecule and its two deuterated analogues – DO(CH
2)OH and DO(CH
2)OD were analysed at MP2/cc-pVTZ and CCSD(T)/cc-pVQZ levels of theory. In the first case, 2D PES and 2D surfaces of kinematic coefficients were calculated with geometry optimisation for all other geometric parameters, and in the second case, only the energy of optimised configurations at the MP2/cc-pVTZ level of theory was determined. Then 2D PES was recounted to the complete basis set (CBS) limit by extrapolating the results of calculations at the MP2/cc-pVTZ and MP2/cc-pVQZ levels of theory The calculated values were then averaged over four equivalent points on the coordinate plane. Hamiltonian matrices were constructed using DVR and Fourier methods. After their subsequent diagonalization, the energies of the stationary torsional states were computed. Their classification by C
2V(M) and C
S(M) molecular symmetry groups has been performed. The splitting values due to the tunnelling of the thirty most deeply located torsional states in the three studied molecules were also determined. The torsional states, internal rotation barriers, and tunnelling frequencies in the molecules of methanediol and hydrogen trioxide were compared.
