Carbonate MCO<sub>3</sub> (M = Zn, Cd) can act as both Lewis acid and base to engage in a spodium bond with nitrogen-containing bases (HCN, NHCH<sub>2</sub>, and NH<sub>3</sub>) and a chalcogen bond with SeHX (X = F, Cl, OH, OCH<sub>3</sub>, NH<sub>2</sub>, and NHCH<sub>3</sub>), respectively. There is also a weak hydrogen bond in the chalcogen-bonded dyads. Both chalcogen and hydrogen bonds become stronger in the order of F > Cl > OH > OCH<sub>3</sub> > NH<sub>2</sub> > NHCH<sub>3</sub>.
