The alpha-clustering and molecular-orbitals of {sup 22}Ne and F isotopes are investigated based on antisymmetrized molecular dynamics (AMD). The observed candidates for the alpha cluster state of {sup 22}Ne are understood as the molecular-orbital states and alpha+{sup 18}O di-nuclei states. The presence of the molecular-orbital states in the O and F isotopes and the drastic reduction of their excitation energy near the neutron-drip line are predicted.
