Abstract:

The electronic structures of cluster compounds [M_4S_2](M=Co, Nb) were calculated by using EHMO method. According to the comparision of total energies, orbital levels, charge distributions and Muiliken bond orders before and after including 3d orbitals of sulfur, it was found that 3d orbitals of the quad-bridging sulfer atom in the cluster [M_4S_2]play an boortant role in the formation of stable structural unit.

Key words: Cluster, Quad-bridging sulfur atom, 3d-orbital bonding, EHMO
