Abstract
The MNDO method was used to study the potential energy surface for Zn$n and ZnnXm (n = 2 – 4) linear zinc clusters with terminal and lateral coordinations of the X acceptor groups. The results agree with the formerly proposed hypothesis on the modes of Hg cluster stabilization. Possible effects of the individual properties of the element and the value of the acceptor strength of the ligands on the relative stability of the clusters are discussed.
