In this paper, we study the behaviour of singular isometries in orthogonal groups. These are isometries whose path is a singular subspace. We shall prove that the path of such a singular isometry is always even-dimensional. We shall use this result to show that the subgroup of the orthogonal group On(K, Q) which is generated by the singular isometries is the commutator subgroup Ωn(K, Q).
