Abstract: The chlorocarbenoid, CHCl2Li, was studied by means of ab initio molecular orbital theory. Three equilibrium structures and two isomerization transition states were located. The calculations showed that the three-membered ring structure is the most stable. The "classical tetrahedral" structure is not the local minimum on the potential energy surface.

Key words: Chlorocarbenoid, isomeric structure, Ab initio molecular orbital calcu- lation
