Abstract: UHFand UMP2 are employed to investigate the bonding mechanism of 1Σ+Ni-COmolecular cluster.The calculation results show that, in 1Σ+Ni─CO σ subspace, CO5σ→Ni4sσ donation dominates in Ni1 S(d10 )derived state, while 4spσpolarization dominates in Ni1D(d9s1)derived state.The π backdonation is greater than σ donation in d10 derived state, while σ donation is more important than π backdonation in d9s1 derived state, The calculation results demonstrate that it is important to perform a counterpoise calculation because there must exist an orbital overlapping in a donor-acceptor bonding mechanism.

Key words: 1Σ+Ni─CO molecular cluster, Ab initio, Counterpoise calculation
