    <p>The synchrotron Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum of the <i>b</i>-type ν<sub>10</sub> band of ethylene-<i>cis</i>-1,2<i>-d</i><sub>2</sub> (<i>cis</i>-C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>2</sub>D<sub>2</sub>) was recorded at a resolution of 0.00096 cm<sup>−1</sup> in the 550–750 cm<sup>−1</sup> region. The measured FWHM of the lines was about 0.002 cm<sup>−</sup><sup>1</sup>. The ν<sub>10</sub> band, centred at 662.871885(27) cm<sup>−1</sup> was found to be perturbed through a <i>b-</i>type Coriolis resonance with the infrared inactive ν<sub>8</sub> at 759.9582(20) cm<sup>−1</sup>. In this work, 1989 infrared transitions of ν<sub>10</sub> were assigned for the first time. These perturbed and unperturbed infrared transitions were fitted with an rms deviation of 0.00033 cm<sup>−1</sup> using the Watson's <i>A</i>-reduced Hamiltonian in the <i>I<sup>r</sup></i> representation with three Coriolis terms to derive the rovibrational constants for <i>v</i><sub>10</sub> = 1 and <i>v</i><sub>8</sub> = 1 states. Ground state rovibrational constants up to two sextic terms were also derived from a fit of a total of 2532 ground state combination differences with arms deviation of 0.00030 cm<sup>−1</sup> from the infrared transitions of the present analysis and those determined previously. The ground state constants compared favourably to the equilibrium state constants from harmonic cc-pVTZ basis set at CCSD(T), MP2 and B3LYP levels. The rotational constants of ν<sub>10</sub> and ν<sub>8</sub> from this work agree well with those from anharmonic calculations.</p
