Abstract: In this paper, the steric energies of the following molecule pairs are discussed and compared by means of the molecular mechanics method, (1) cis- and trans-: ClHgCHCHCl(Ⅰ), ClHgCHCHHgCl(Ⅱ), ClCHCHCl(Ⅲ). The energy orders are Ecis-Ⅰ < Etrans-Ⅰ, Ecis-Ⅱ> Etrans-Ⅱ, Ecis-Ⅲ > Etrans-Ⅲ; (2) o- and m-: C6H4HgCl2(Ⅳ), C6H4Hg2Cl2(Ⅴ), C6H4Cl2(Ⅵ), the energy orders are Eo-Ⅳ < Em-Ⅳ, Em-Ⅴ > Eo-Ⅴ, Eo-Ⅵ > Em-Ⅵ. From the energy barriers of internal rotations of the following molecules, ClHgCH2CH2Y, Y=CN(Ⅶ), C6H5(ⅩⅠ), the energies of cis-molecules(Ⅶ, ⅩⅠ), are lower than those of trans-ones. The energies would be increased when we changed _Hg_Cl into _Cl or _CN. From above calculation, we concluded that there are secondary chemical bonds in such an organo-metallic compounds as cis-Ⅰ, o-Ⅳ, Ⅶa, ⅩⅠa. The formation of secondary bond can decrease the molecules energies.
