The structural and electronic properties of nitrite (ONO) and alkali oxides (OX; X = H, Li, Na, K) have been investigated theoretically by performing ab initio calculations in the HF level. These species form alkali-metal nitrates (ONOOX). The optimized structures and the electronic properties of the systems ONO, OX, and ONOOX are obtained. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.
