Abstract
A systematic ab initio study has been made of the bonding between Zn atoms and all first- and second-row main group atoms. Ground state term symbols, equilibrium bond lengths, vibrational frequencies and dissociation energies have been determined, and the nature of the bonding (van der Waals, dative and chemical) has been examined.Keywords
