Ab initio molecular orbital calculations are reported for the H 2 SSH· and H 2 SCl· radicals and for the H 2 SClH +· radical cation. The two neutral species are found to be very weakly bound van der Waals' complexes, whereas the H 2 SClH +· radical cation is bound by 11.9 kcal mol −1 at MP 2/4‐31 G . The importance of charge in σ* radicals is discussed.
