Ab initio minimal basis LCAO‐SCF molecular orbital ( MO ) calculations have been carried out on various structures of the AIF 3 and AlCl 3 dimers. A bridged D 2 h structure is found to be the most stable of the structures investigated for Al 2 F 6 . A similar structure was obtained for Al 2 Cl 6 in agreement with the experimental evidence.
