The {alpha}-decay half-lives of the exotic N=125, 126, and 127 isotones (Po, Rn, Ra, Th, and U) are systematically studied by the density-dependent cluster model (DDCM). The influence of the neutron shell closure N=126 on the {alpha}-cluster formation and penetration probabilities is analyzed and discussed in detail. By combining the DDCM and a two-level microscopic model together, the experimental half-lives of {alpha} transitions to both the ground state and the excited state in the daughter nuclei are reproduced very well.
