Abstract
Ab initio theoretical methods that incorporate effects of orbital rela xation and electron correlation are used to examine the possibility th at doubly or triply charged oxy anions of the class SO42-, SeO42-, TeO 42-, or PO43-, AsO43-, SbO43- are stable relative to electron detachme nt in the absence of any surrounding medium. In all of these cases, ou r findings indicate quite clearly that these multiply charged oxy anio ns are not stable.
