Abstract
Structure, energetics and vibrations of the ClOO and OClO radicals are treated ab initio in the 6-31G* basis set with the MP2 correlation corrections. The energetics is refined at the MP4 level. In all treatments the ClOO isomer exhibits lower energy. The smallest calculated energy separation between both structures equals 16 kJ/mol. A good agreement with available experimental data has been found.
